Chapter 72: Don't Look Back (1st Update)

People live in the world, just like a lonely boat floating on the sea, some drift with the current, some ride the wind and waves, but no matter what kind of life trajectory, once the lonely boat is broken by the waves, there is no possibility of continuing.

There is no ship that can be broken and continue sailing, and the lonely boat that can be broken by the waves again and again, and then return again and again to continue moving forward does not exist, unless it is a ghost ship, not a real lonely boat, and does not belong to this ocean.

The same is true of life, no one can have many destinies at the same time, unless he does not belong to this world.

I remember a foreign movie with such a scene, and the protagonist has no lifeline in the palm of his hand. The medium said that he did not belong to this world because he had no destiny to follow.

I have so many destiny trajectories, does it mean that I shouldn't exist in this world either? Maybe I should have died when I was seven years old, so that the people around me wouldn't die one by one.

I looked at my father with tears in my eyes. Thinking that the old man Hezheng told me that the union of father and mother was originally a mistake, was my birth also a mistake?

At this moment, my heart is really dead. I thought that it is better to die, if tomorrow's ritual needs to kill me, then close my eyes and wait for death, so as not to continue to live and harm my family, maybe if I die, the fate of my father and mother can be changed.

Seeing the change in my expression, my father suddenly became anxious, he stretched out his hands and pressed my shoulders: "Ji Zang, listen to me, you must not give up, everyone's fate is pressed on you, if you give up, it will really be all over, don't think about a turnaround." ”

What the? Everyone's fate rests on me? I'm not a superhero who saves the world, how can I bear the fate of others?

I wanted to ask, but I saw my father slowly shaking his head at me with a solemn face, and the meaning in his eyes was obvious: don't discuss this topic anymore, this can't be said.

My stomach full of doubts was held back, my father slapped me on the shoulder twice, turned away, I don't know if it was an illusion, I actually felt that my father's back turned away with a bit of tragedy and determination.

I lay down early that night to sleep, not because of the size of my heart or the size of my nerves, but because I wanted to see the masked girl with the black cat in my dreams, and all kinds of things seemed to be related to her, and she seemed to know a lot of things, and I wanted to ask her what I should do.

I don't know how to do magic, and I don't know how to meet people in my dreams, but what I can do is to silently call the masked girl and the black cat in my heart while forcing myself to sleep.

Under the effect of self-hypnosis, I lay in bed for two hours, and finally fell into a deep sleep, and when I woke up, I found that it was already dawn.

I closed my eyes and slept all night, not even dreaming. If this sleep quality is put on the insomnia forum, it can envy a group of people.

But that's not what I want! I want to meet the girl, I want to talk to her, every time she comes uninvited, why is she hiding from me at such a critical moment?

I was still in a daze, and my father had already called me downstairs to wash up and eat, and then go to the ceremony.

I could only wash my face and brush my teeth quickly, go downstairs to the living room and eat two bites of food, and then set off with my father—the food was very rich and delicious, but how could I have the appetite to eat?

I followed my father out of the door, and I saw that the Great Elder and a group of old men of the Ji family were waiting there with a serious face, and after seeing us, they nodded, and the group set off towards the north of the town.

Speaking of which, Huangjialing is really weird, we walked a few hundred meters along the asphalt road in the town, and after passing through a frame door, the scene in front of us completely changed. I felt like I had suddenly entered the primeval forest from the city, the asphalt road was gone, and there were huge and dense trees all around, and the sunlight blocking it was a little invisible.

I took out my phone and opened the map to take a look. The real-time positioning actually jumped from a small town in the Guanzhong Plain back to the vicinity of the provincial capital of the Central Plains.

What's going on? Is the map broken, or is there a problem with the cell phone signal? Or is there nothing wrong with the phone and the map, but it is true that we have traveled through space?

My mind was full of doubts. Following the crowd, I walked into a huge cave, which obviously has traces of artificial processing, and there are traces of excavation on the rock wall, and there are all kinds of petroglyphs. The style of painting is quaint, the lines are simple, and it looks a bit like the original paintings in those documentaries on TV.

I was a little curious, and I couldn't help but look at the petroglyphs on the walls, because there was no electricity in the cave. When everyone came in, they lit torches, and the dancing flames lit the walls, and in a blur, I saw that the people and animals on the petroglyphs seemed to come to life and were fighting.

A beast roar was heard. The sound of gold and iron clashing came, I only felt dizzy, my consciousness began to blur slowly, and then my nose was hot, and something seemed to flow out. It dripped down my mouth.

I subconsciously wanted to raise my hand to wipe it, but I found that I couldn't lift my hand at all, and at this moment, a large hand pressed on the top of my head, and a cool air flow suddenly poured into my mind. Sober me up.

When I opened my eyes, my father was looking at me eagerly, and I subconsciously raised my right hand to wipe the slimy things on my mouth, only to realize that they were all my nosebleeds.

"Don't look at those murals on the rock walls anymore, we're used to them. Forget that ordinary people will be affected by the mind. Father explained.

The Great Elder exchanged glances with the rest of the clan elders, and their faces were a little unpleasant, and it was obvious that my nosebleed seemed to have an impact on the ceremony.

"Let's go over first, let Ji Zang rest later, and then we'll start. Hongfan, you protect Ji Zang and don't let him be affected anymore. The Great Elder commanded.

My father took out a tissue and wiped my nosebleed and right hand clean, then he reached out and took my right hand in his palm. A cool sensation flowed down my right hand into my body, rejuvenating my already drowsy consciousness a lot.

I didn't dare to look at the petroglyphs on the stone walls on both sides of the cave, so I followed my father and walked with everyone with my head down.

But even though I didn't look at the petroglyphs, I still slowly hallucinated. I felt a burning flame on the rock wall, calling out to me, whispering to me, "Jizang, you're here, you're finally here." ”

What was that? What's that flame on the wall? I didn't even dare to turn my head to look.

"Ji Zang. Don't run away, you and I are one, I am the source of your strength, haven't you always felt that you are too useless? Come on, absorb my power. You can have powers that ordinary people can't imagine, you can change your fate, and you can even resurrect the dead. ”

I had always kept my father's words in mind and kept my mind free from temptation, but when I heard the flame say that he could change my fate and give me the power to resurrect the dead, I could no longer remain calm.

I don't want my adoptive father and adoptive mother to die, I don't want my godmother to sacrifice for me, and I don't want my relatives and friends around me to die one by one.

No, it must be another hallucination, something unknown that is confusing my mind. I told myself in my heart.

"Ji Zang, stop making a fool of yourself. You have my power in your blood, you can feel their cheers, why deny yourself? The voice continued.

It was right, ever since I felt the flame, my blood felt like it was boiling. It made me feel so full of strength that even my left hand, which I had lost control, seemed to be showing signs of recovery.

Could it be that is really the power I lost?

Think about it, the Ji family is all superhuman, even if I was sent out of Huangjialing to live since I was a child and didn't learn those secret methods, but the basic physical fitness should be guaranteed, right? But I'm just the level of an ordinary person, is it really because my power has been separated from my body?

I finally couldn't hold back the curiosity in my heart, and turned my head to look at the place where the flame existed, but at a glance, I was petrified on the spot.
