Chapter 19: A Strange World

In the thick wooded aisle, a teenager and a little girl stood in the middle of the road facing each other.

The boy looks very young, a face that exudes youth from the inside out, short black hair shows the true color of health, and dark eyes are full of calm, which invisibly adds a bit of mystery.

Standing opposite the boy was a little girl, wearing a linen-colored cloth coat, her snow-white little face was expressionless, her long hair in her shawl was naturally scattered, and her smart eyes looked at Gu Li tightly without speaking.

Looking at the sun slanting to the west and the dense woods around him, Gu Li felt that it was not possible to continue the confrontation like this, so he had to squat down and say, "Lin Sihan, this is the last time." ”

Lin Sihan looked at Gu Li, who was squatting down with his back to him, a smile flashed in his smart eyes, his little face softened, he didn't speak, his delicate body leaned directly up, and his little hands looked around Gu Li's neck.

Carrying this delicate little body, Gu Li pursed his lips and continued to walk forward.

...

A week ago, I had to stay overnight in the wilderness because I couldn't find a place to live.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, it suddenly rained heavily that night, which made Gu Li helpless to brave the heavy rain and run into the woods to hide from the rain, and then his inspiration suddenly came to mind.

Following the inspiration, Gu Li saw a corpse that was constantly attacking a barrier that emitted a glimmer of light.

Seeing this scene, Gu Li hurriedly stepped forward to restrain the corpse that had undergone corpse transformation, and when he turned around, he saw Lin Sihan's big smart eyes, looking at him calmly.

Until now, Gu Li still remembered the look revealed in those eyes.

A deep sadness and a heavy despair!

As if her heart had been touched, Gu Li squatted in front of her, looked at her expressionless little face and asked, "My name is Gu Li, what about you?" ”

"Lin Sihan."

...

Lin Sihan watched Gu Li walk quickly in a steady manner, and after being silent for a while, he said, "Gu Li, in fact, I have always wanted to ask you a question. ”

"I'm older than you, why can't you call me brother?" Without looking back, Gu Li's eyes flashed with subtle helplessness and said, "What's the problem?" ”

"I see that you go to throw branches every morning to find directions, and you like to walk the mountain road so much?" Lin Sihan lowered his head slightly, and his immature little face was full of seriousness: "Are you a road idiot?" ”

Gu Li, who was walking fast, almost fell to the ground, and said with a dark face: "First of all, I'm not a road idiot. ”

"Also, I threw the branches because I didn't know where to go."

"A disoriented teenager?"

“...”

Seeing that Gu Li stopped talking, a slight cunning flashed in Lin Sihan's eyes, and his little hand patted his shoulder and said, "If you don't know where to go, why don't you go home with me." ”

"I can take you home, but I still have something to do." Turning his head slightly to look at the little white hand on his shoulder, Gu Li said calmly: "A week has passed, I thought you didn't want to go home." ”

"Who doesn't want to go home, it's just that everyone's home is different."

Listening to the voice on his back that suddenly became indifferent, Gu Li fell silent.

The twelve-year-old girl doesn't cry or make trouble in the wild, and her thinking is mature and calm, it is impossible for Gu Li to say that she is not strange.

But everyone has their own privacy, and he never asks about things that should not be asked.

Speaking of home, a delicate figure gradually appeared in Gu Li's mind, but it quickly dispersed.

"It's been five years... Sister, how are you doing..."

In a blur, Lin Sihan seemed to hear a whisper, and felt that Gu Li's temperament in front of him had changed.

The peaceful and casual temperament became melancholy and lost, as if he remembered the deepest impression in his heart, evoked the first and most beautiful fragment, and then deeply indulged in it and could not extricate himself, and at the same time, reason kept telling himself that this was the memory of the past.

Contradictory and harmonious!

In a trance, Lin Sihan seemed to see a figure that kept falling down and standing up and walking forward, holding the long sword in his hand to cut away the illusion in front of him.

Yes, an illusion.

In normal times, Lin Sihan felt that Gu Li's attitude towards reality in front of him was very strange, relaxed and casual, walking for a while, no matter where he was going or where he was going.

It seems to be even more confused than himself, and he doesn't know what the meaning of existence is.

"Why don't you speak, are you hungry?" Gu Li's temperament quickly returned to normal, and he was also used to recalling the memories of his previous life and his sister from time to time, so it would not take too long to fall into memory when there were people.

"Hmm." Lin Sihan looked at Gu Li's side face, thought for a while, and said, "Gu Li, have you thought about your future life?" ”

"Later life?"

The footsteps paused slightly, his expression flashed with surprise, and Gu Li said calmly: "I don't know, one step at a time." ”

"I feel that you are so perfunctory, and there is no vitality of young people at all."

The disgusted voice sounded in his ears, Gu Li pulled the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help but complain: "I really can't play games with you because I'm not energetic." ”

"That's it, you send me home, and I'll pay for your school tuition." Lin Sihan seemed to think of something, and said with a smile flashing in his smart eyes.

"Huh." Sending her two words, Gu Li's heart was unwavering, and he even wanted to laugh a little.

I was twenty-five years old in my previous life, and I graduated from college and worked, but I still want to go back to school?

Are you going to teach me classical Chinese?

"I'm not talking about a private school like this, but a real school, the kind where thousands of people go to school together." Lin Sihan, who was usually calm, seemed to ignite an impulse, and said in an enthusiastic tone: "Have you ever seen a light brighter than a candle?" ”

"Have you ever seen a road like steel and concrete?"

"Have you ever seen a city called a colorful city?"

"Eh, what's wrong?"

Lin Sihan, who originally wanted to continue talking, saw Gu Li, who suddenly stopped, and asked cautiously: "I'm sorry, I'm not laughing at you... Yes. ”

An exclamation sounded, Gu Li hugged Lin Sihan with trembling hands, looked at her tightly with his eyes, and stammered: "You, what you just said is true!?" ”

"Really, really..." Seeing Gu Li's surprised cheeks, Lin Sihan felt that something was wrong, but when he looked at his posture of being embraced, his little face flushed slightly, and he lowered his head and didn't speak.

Gu Li, who was in shock, didn't notice this small detail, because his mind was calmed by Lin Sihan's words just now.

The era he traveled through was obviously an ancient social structure, why would Lin Sihan say modern things?

Could it be that she is also from the modern era with herself?

Wrong wrong!

Forcibly calming himself down, Gu Li thought back to the conversation just now, and found that Lin Sihan seemed to have been telling the truth.

In other words, there is also a modern society in this world!?
