Chapter 2 Discovery
It's been a few days since An Qing returned to school, and during this time, she has never thought more clearly than she does now, what she wants to do. She never thought that she would be so naΓ―ve, and every time this thought came to her head, she couldn't help but lower her head, hit her forehead, and laughed at herself helplessly.
Ayako, the closest person to her now, can naturally feel the change in her. The unspeakable becomes more mature, calm and calm. There were even times when it made her feel cold, even though An Qing's smile was still so warm......
Although An Qing's results are still good, they are far from before. The ranking had dropped to the top twenty, but Ayako noticed that An Qing didn't seem to care that much. An Qing, whom she knew in the past, if she retreated from the rank to now, I am afraid that she would cry badly, and she would be crazy to check and fill in the gaps. But now it seems that this is not the case. In fact, she was very worried about An Qing. But every time she asked, An Qing always said, "It's nothing, hehe." And then there was a warm smile. It's not good for her to continue to ask, even if they are good friends, they have to leave a certain amount of space for each other, and when An Qing is ready, maybe she will tell her. She thought.
Bell bell bell -
Another class is coming to an end today. An Qing's rest is not enough, and she always supplements her sleep between classes. She would spare some time each day to master the Soul Spike. Now, as far as she knew from her grandmother, she had mastered and practiced almost as much as she could. Maybe it's time to get what belongs to her, maybe it's time to do what you want to do.
Between classes, just as An Qing and Ayako were chatting, Qi Kai came over again. These days, he always finds excuses to talk to An Qing and shows his concern in various ways. An Qing naturally understood that he felt a little guilty in his heart, but this was not what she was worried about, and An Qing didn't like him to pester her all the time.
"Qi Kai. If you're feeling guilty, there's really no need. It's not your fault, and besides, I don't blame you, so in the future, you don't have to do it again. An Qing raised her head, looked into his eyes and said.
When Qi Kai heard this, he understood that An Qing had no other meaning for him, just wanted to eliminate his guilt and stop letting him get close. "What the hell are you ......" Qi Kai frowned, stopped talking, paused, and continued: "Okay, I understand." β
"Do you think he wants that? You still know that Qi Kai is like this because of this, and you know each other and know what you are. Wang Jiao walked over and said with disdain.
"I thought you had retreated to the mountains and forests, why, I couldn't help it, and I came out again to remember another one? I don't think you want to graduate. Ayako said indignantly, and the angry Wang Jiao didn't know what to say.
An Qing was still sitting there quietly. At this moment, she suddenly stood up, looked at Wang Jiao, and sneered, this smile made her feel creepy. An Qing turned her head, walked directly towards Qi Kai, savagely pressed Qi Kai's head down, and kissed it without hesitation.
The current situation is something that Ayako would never have imagined in her life that could happen to An Qing. She was dumbfounded, and Qi Kai was also frightened, he was completely subjugated by An Qing's savagery, and honestly let her kiss. With the bell ringing in class, announcing the end of this matter, Wang Jiao left quietly without any expression.
When An Qing stopped, she saw that the whole class was looking at her with disgust. "I hate it and watch it so fascinating? Don't you think it's a contradiction? Oh yes, perhaps, not at all contradictory. An Qing said word by word, sneering, and couldn't have said it more clearly.
"Anqing!! You get me out and stand! The head teacher happened to walk by the door and saw this scene.
An Qing didn't say a word, and directly packed her schoolbag and prepared to go out. At this time, Ayako suddenly grabbed An Qing's hand. He looked at her worriedly.
"Don't worry, Ayako, I'm fine." An Qing said to her with a smile. With that smile again, Ayako let go. Maybe everything has changed, but no matter what, Ayako cares about her, and always will be.
An Qing walked straight out of the classroom, and did not mean to accept the punishment at the door. Let the head teacher roar behind him.
When An Qing went to the ATM on the way to withdraw some living expenses, she suddenly found that the balance on the card had become nine figures. An Qing was not surprised at all, she knew that it was Sister Luo. Since she remitted it, she will remit it, even if she remits it back, Sister Luo will still remit it back, and it is very troublesome to go back and forth. The rest of the money is completely enough for Sister Luo to use. If that's the case, An Qing plans to donate part of it anonymously, and then keep some of it for herself.
On the way home, An Qing walked very slowly. Lately, she has been thinking about the latest things as if she is not possessed by her soul, because there are so many questions, and every step is a problem. Whether it's the whole thing about the soul, or other things in life, and why is that? I used to think it was just superstition. And what about your parents, or your own family? And Ayako also discovered her state, whether it was chatting between classes or during class recently, An Qing always suddenly started to be stunned, obviously slipping away again, and as a result, her face was pinched wildly by Ayako.
As soon as she entered the house, An Qing noticed that there was some change in the house, and someone was coming. And this person, don't think about it, must be an uncle. It was also completely expected by her, she hadn't been there for a long time. Moreover, the current An Qing is no longer the one who evades, is weak, and endures. Besides, to be realistic, there is no need for her to entangle with him because of tuition fees.
"Coming back?" He came out of the inner room and said indignantly.
"Well, what's wrong?" An Qing put her schoolbag aside and didn't even look at him.
"Why don't you come and clean it? Don't want to go to school anymore? He said contemptuously.
If he knew that the money was in An Qing, he would definitely be angry, right? Indeed, this is a lot of money. Even An Qing didn't know how grandma could have so much money, which was also a mystery.
"I won't go again in the future, thank you for your concern." An Qing replied indifferently.
"What?! I'm telling you, don't regret it, hehe. He sneered.
"Well, goodbye." An Qing looked at him with a smile, he walked out angrily, slammed the door and left.
Say goodbye, and indeed we will see you again, and immediately. Because tonight, An Qing plans to go back to his original home and go to the basement to find what belongs to his father.
11 o'clock -
An Qing was on her way to his house. The closer she got, the more she could feel the growing aura in the air, what was this? She had a sense of foreboding. When she flew over her uncle's house, this sight made An Qing dumbfounded. She saw that the entire two-story villa was surrounded by spirits, but for some unknown reason, they couldn't go in. And what kind of soul is this? They are also different in color from the others, giving off a faint dark red. What's more, why did they stay here, looking at the traces, they have been here for a long time, but they are just An Qing before the soul nail, and they are not visible between them.
Just when An Qing was still thinking, "Whoosh! Sou! Sou! Suddenly, those spirits stopped surrounding the house and instead rushed towards An Qing, marking red marks in the night sky. An Qing didn't know what to do, and in a panic, she tried to hide to the side. But it's too late......
This feeling of despair seems to have never been experienced, as if one's soul has been torn apart, not the pain of broken bones. It's just a completely empty mind, as if it had disappeared......
When An Qing woke up again, her head was dizzy. The familiar ceiling, it turned out that she was at home, remembering the events of last night, and she couldn't remember it clearly, only that a group of red souls seemed to penetrate her body. After that, my consciousness began to blur. After that, at the moment of falling, An Qing seemed to see a silver light, such a dazzling silver light.
"Damn." An Qing struggled to prop herself up, leaned against the head of the bed, and said in frustration. She wanted to look for the information, but now it seems that things are not so easy. An Qing definitely still wants to go, although she is afraid of encountering that situation again, but that can't stop her. Only this time, she decided to be a little more careful.
After An Qing took a shower, she stood naked in front of the mirror, and she looked at herself in the mirror. Since then, I have also started to exercise my body every day, with a lean and strong body. All this is just the appearance, and the most important thing is the internal change. She suddenly felt that the self in the mirror didn't seem to be herself, and who really knew? Who you are today, or is it not who you were yesterday? Absolutely sure?
Since An Qing bought a mobile phone, she only told a few people her mobile phone number. When Ayako learned her phone number, phone calls and text messages became commonplace. An Qing just turned on the phone, and more than half of the dozen or so missed calls were Ayako, some of the others were classmates, and a few were Sister Luo.
"Xiao An, where are you, I knocked on the door and there is no one at your house?"
"Are you in a bad mood today? Tell me anything. β
"Have you eaten?"
"Tomorrow Sunday, go shopping with me?"
"Go to bed early at night."
"What are you doing? You want me to worry about death. β
β¦β¦
So many text messages were from Ayako, and An Qing was afraid that she would worry too much, so she hurriedly replied to her, saying that she had gone to a relative's house, so that she could rest assured.
The next night, An Qing came directly by bus and did not change the chain. Although An Qing is in an ordinary state, the soul can still see the other. However, she had to try various methods. It was already very close, and without sensing any soul similar to that day, An Qing walked out from the street corner in the distance. Sure enough, there were no souls. What exactly is this...... What's going on? But now, there's no time to think about anything else, you have to get your hands on it first.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one nearby now, An Qing turned into a soul and rushed directly to the house. There is actually another basement hidden under the basement, but the entrance is very hidden, pressed under an ordinary stone floor, and her uncle must not have discovered this place, only An Qing's family knows about this hidden basement.
"Ahem!" An Qing went straight down, and then she was out of her soul state, and she choked on the dust in the air and coughed. Here, although the voice would not reach it, it still made An Qing cover her mouth vigilantly.
In this narrow basement, only one bookcase occupies most of the area, making it even more cramped.
In the dim light, a few books were disorderly on the shelves. It's not like someone else turned it, it's more like an inconsequential illusion deliberately created.
An Qing looked through all the books, but there was nothing she was looking for. It must have been overlooked, An Qing carefully checked every detail here. Think back to if you missed any details. That's right! It's a book. An Qing suddenly thought that when she first came here, she vaguely remembered that the number of books seemed to be a few more than now. Sure enough, when An Qing switched the soul chain, on the three floors of the bookshelf, there were three more books placed in turn on each floor. When An Qing just wanted to touch it, she found that the covers of the three middle-level books were all the same, and there were no pictures. She looked at the other two floors, and the same. There must be some mystery hidden in this, and An Qing didn't dare to act rashly.
What does this mean exactly? Father? The memories of my father are vague and clear. What exactly is he trying to express? An Qing pondered for a moment and thought of a possible answer, does this layer mean body, mind, and soul? It's like memory, the picture I used to look at when I was a child.
According to this assumption, the level of the layers should represent the degree of unity of body, soul, and mind. From the low to the high, from the simple to the complex, then the highest three layers should be their complex existence. She remembers her father saying, "Everyone is in harmony with the soul." Then the body, mind, and soul are actually one. Then the landscape should be the first book from left to right.
An Qing calmed her nerves and slowly approached the book. As soon as her hand touched the book, several of the other books disappeared instantly. It seems that An Qing's choice is correct, the form of the book has changed to something else, and the color has changed from gray to ordinary brown.
"Maybe it's time to get your hands on this book as a normal person." An Qing thought to herself.
Sure enough, An Qing was able to see this book in an ordinary state. It's not so much a book as an old, thick note. An Qing carefully held the book and took a general look at the contents. It's all about souls and stuff like that, and nothing else. An Qing was a little lost, thinking that she could find some clues from her parents, but now it seems that the only hope has been lost.
An Qing leaned against the wall and sat down disappointed.
If you think about it, in fact, in terms of her own current experience. I really don't know what I can do, and from "that day" to now, it certainly doesn't prove it. There are still many things that I don't understand, and many things to learn. An Qing lowered her head and read the book again, since it is so protected, there is naturally a reason for her father. And, what I saw that day, the soul trapped outside, maybe also looking for this book? However, why did you ...... after discovering An Qing
I don't know how many things are hard to predict in the future. But what she was sure of was that she had to grasp the content of the book well. This is the only way to do it at the moment.
When she got home, she saw Ayako knocking on the door outside. An Qing hurriedly walked into the house.
"Crunch-" An Qing hurriedly opened the door.
"Why did it take so long to open the door! Don't you want me as a friend?! Although An Qing was smiling at her, Ayako was still angry and went into the house on a rampage.
"I'm sorry, Ayako. I just went to sleep and I haven't heard it. An Qing followed her and said embarrassedly.
"I've called you so many times, and you haven't answered any of them. I'll bring dinner with you. Ayako slammed the food she had brought on the table.
"Alright, Ayako, don't be angry. It won't be like this in the future. An Qing apologized again and again.
Who knew that Ayako's face suddenly changed, she turned around and pulled An Qing with both hands to sit down, and said with a smile: "It's pretty much the same, don't refrigerate your best friend." Try my mom's ribs. As he spoke, he opened the lunch box and handed it to An Qing chopsticks.
"How's it going, is it delicious?" Ayako held her chin and looked at An Qing.
"Hmm."
"By the way, are you really with Qi Kai?" Ayako suddenly came out of nowhere.
An Qing almost didn't squirt out the rice and denied Ayako. If you want to say what happened that day, Ayako doesn't know, now she just thinks that these are very naΓ―ve, maybe there is a problem with her own approach, she regrets it very much now, or maybe she really is? Forget it, this at least made Wang Jiao retreat. It seems that Wang Jiao also saw An Qing's changes, and there was more ruthlessness in her eyes.
"That's good, I just hope you do well." Ayako patted Yasu's head.
"Got it." An Qing pulled her hand down, and she put it back up. An Qing directly put down her chopsticks and chased Ayako around. There was a lot of commotion, and the laughter of the two girls filled the room.
After sending Ayako, it was already past 10 o'clock when An Qing arrived home. An Qing hurriedly took out the book, and when An Qing was about to start reading, she found that the book had undergone some changes. The book is dissipating page by page over time! And so it is now!
When An Qing wanted to take a note, she found that when she started to write it down, the speed of dissipation had increased several times!! Actually, it's too late, no way! I can only hurry up and watch it!
This night, An Qing did not stop for a moment, and kept understanding and remembering. Although An Qing's memory is not bad, she can only do her best to do so many jerky things. When the morning light of dawn the next day illuminated the room, the book in An Qing's hand also dissipated and only one page remained. She read the last page intently, then took out a few pages and tried her best to recall and condense everything. She was so tired that she fell asleep on the table.
"Knock knockβ"
An Qing, who was asleep, was woken up by the endless knocking on the door, she looked up at the clock, it was already afternoon. An Qing got up and went to the door, and she saw several strangers wearing sunglasses through the cat's eyes. None of them she knew. An Qing never opened the door to strangers, but the knock on the door was getting louder and louder, which made An Qing feel wrong.
Suddenly, An Qing thought of the text message Sister Luo had sent her, saying to let her go quickly, but An Qing didn't know what it meant at that time. I only asked her why, and there was no reply from Sister Luo after that. No one answered the phone back, so I don't know what happened. Is it related? An Qing didn't dare to let her guard down now, because all the falsehoods that had been before had become true.
Sure enough, a few minutes later. There was a loud bang, "Bang Dang! The door was smashed open. In this case, An Qing quickly switched to the soul chain, and she watched as these people passed by her, flipping and smashing everywhere. The whole room was a mess. What exactly are they looking for?
"This little girl! Looks like a high school student. One person was holding An Qing's study materials in his hand and looking at it.
"I don't know why the boss is looking for her." The other was flipping around.
"Don't ask, it's not good for us to know so much. No one is here, let's go! With that, the two of them left, leaving a mess behind.
After An Qing saw them leave, she relaxed her vigilance. Just as An Qing's feet landed on the ground after changing her body, An Qing felt a bullet of an anesthetic gun on her shoulder, and then several shots hit, and An Qing was completely paralyzed. It turned out that it was a trap, but how did they know? Now An Qing no longer has the strength to think, and immediately fell to the ground in a coma.
"Damn old man, get such a safe!"
"There's no way, if you force it open, it will cause a self-explosion."
"Is the time?"
"It stands to reason that I should be awake by now."
"Why can't I unlock it with her hand when I'm unconscious? The woman she caught couldn't be lying, was she? β
"No, it won't! Drugs and torture have been used, and she has no sense of protection to lie. Wait until the girl wakes up and try again. β
β¦β¦
In a daze, An Qing heard someone talking next to her, she had no strength and was very weak.
"Wow-"
A bucket of ice water was splashed directly on An Qing's body. An Qing was suddenly awakened by excitement, and was shivering from the cold. She looked around, not knowing what the hell it was. What surprised her! Next to it turned out to be Sister Luo! She was covered in bruises and unconscious.
An Qing was very angry, looking at the people standing outside the glass wall viciously, and what made her even more angry was that one of them turned out to be her uncle, whispering to the person next to her. An Qing's hands were chained to the wall, and she couldn't break free at all. And just when An Qing wanted to change the chain, one of them sneered and said cruel words.
"Stop struggling, we already knew you were that kind of thing. As soon as your body disappears, we will kill the woman next to you. β
Now An Qing really has no choice, she can't ignore Sister Luo. And as for what these people want to do, how do they know Sister Luo?
"As long as you can honestly open this safe, I'll let you go." As she spoke, the man asked for a black metal safe to be placed in front of her. and asked someone to untie her bracelet. Her wrists were bloodied from being chained for so long.
She gently patted Sister Luo, who was in rags next to her, and when she woke up, she shouted frantically in fright and couldn't stop trembling.
"Sister Luo, it's me, An Qing." An Qing looked at her very distressed.
"Ann...... Is it clear? Sister Luo hugged An Qing's body tightly, and her tears did not stop. He kept saying, "Yes...... Sorry ......".
An Qing sensed those painful fragments. A large amount of hallucinogens were forcibly poured into Sister Luo's mouth by several people, whipping, knife cutting, needle pricking, and toe clamping. These people were demons, and she screamed in pain, but it made them laugh excitedly. This cannot be described as "human" at all.
She gently comforted Sister Luo and hugged her. When she was in the most pain, An Qing saw her most desired wish, which was to become a qualified mother, which was a very luxurious thing for her. Because of low self-esteem, because of inability, to receive charity. And at this moment, he has to be forced out of An Qing's whereabouts. She was miserable, and she really didn't want to go on like this......
By the time An Qing sensed that something was wrong with her, it was already too late.
"Ah!!h Sister Luo screamed in pain, broke free from An Qing's arms, and suddenly got up and rushed to the tempered glass in front. With a "bang", her head broke and blood flowed, and the blood slowly infected the entire ground and An Qing's heart.
After these people no longer have a puppet to manipulate, they suddenly seem to have no master, because An Qing can leave here at any time at this moment. But her mind had changed now, and a voice seemed to tell her to untie the box. If everything is in the order that has been arranged, then why not break it, after all, a step-by-step life is no longer a choice.
She placed her hand in the intaglio on the front of the box, and with a "click", the bezel on the outside of the box opened, revealing a round hole. Those people's eyes lit up, and they hurriedly walked in to see, but from their angles, they couldn't see the round hole at all. Judging by the size, it seems that only a slender hand can reach into it. Just as the group of people wanted to come in, An Qing put her hand in without hesitation.
After fumbling in it for a long time, it seemed that there was nothing. Just as An Qing was about to pull her hand out, she suddenly didn't know what was biting, she felt that something was wrong, but when she took her hand out, she couldn't see any wounds.
When the group came over, they found that there was nothing, and they checked inside and out for a long time, and when they took the detector in, they also found that it was an empty box inside. An Qing stood by and watched all the time, not saying a word.
"Damn it! What's in there? What did your grandfather hide? The leader finally couldn't help it, grabbed An Qing's collar and asked.
"Grandpa?" An Qing's eyes became confused again, and in an instant, as if he had lost his soul, without a trace of resistance, he let him shake his collar. I remember that when I was at my grandmother's place, my grandmother didn't say a word about my grandfather. Vague fragments of childhood, vague dim memories of the butterfly nets made by grandpa, she ran in front with a smile, and grandpa followed behind. and his infinite tolerance for An Qing, always a kind smile, patience and care......
And what's going on here? All of a sudden, everyone who loved him was gone......
"You know my grandfather?" An Qing asked coldly.
"I don't give the a damn damn life! Let me kill you, and if you don't tell me honestly, I'll kill you too! What's inside! He pushed hard, and An Qing's back slammed against the wall. An Qing's uncle was behind him, watching without saying a word.
"By the way, Boss Xu, you see, I have helped you so much. Can you give me a share of the money she has? He said flatteringly in the back.
"Money? ** Still want money? Of course the money is mine! Not a cent without you! He slapped his uncle on the face heavily.
An Qing straightened up, patted the dust off her body, and said word by word: "Do you think you still have any capital that threatens me now?" β
The man put a gun directly to the uncle's head and said, "Don't you care whether he lives or dies?" He's the one who took care of you for many years. An Qing's uncle was so frightened that he cried out and pleaded again and again.
An Qing couldn't help but laugh wildly after hearing what he said, and this seemed to be a kind of relieved mockery. With her sigh, in an instant, An Qing disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Smack-" The safe that was originally placed on the ground suddenly smashed into the man surnamed Xu. Immediately, blood splattered, and the accomplices around him were dyed blood-red. In particular, the old man standing next to him was splashed with blood on his face, and he fainted "in fright", while the others also fled.
An Qing naturally knew that borrowing objects and people in the soul state was a very dangerous behavior for herself, and she learned more about this through that book. What is consumed by borrowing things and people in the soul state is the limit of soul power, and this is impossible to regenerate for ordinary souls and all kinds of deviants, and if the limit of soul power is narrow, this is undoubtedly not a self-destructive act. But for her particular being, the limit of soul power is renewable.
An Qing knew very well in her heart that even if it wasn't, she would have to do it. As an alien, she is able to see human beings in a state of soul, and this allows borrowing objects and people to exert a greater effect.
An Qing thought that she would disappear as well, because she had never spent such a powerful soul power. But that's not the case. She was only forced to manifest and was temporarily unable to enter the soul state. An Qing shook her head, feeling a little dizzy, she just wanted to take Sister Luo away, but suddenly the sky was dark, her limbs were weak, and An Qing fell to the ground.
I don't know how long later, when An Qing woke up again, she found that she was no longer in that place. And where is this? An Qing sat up from the bed and looked around.
"This is the police station's medical room." A female police officer gently pushed the door in and closed it again.
"The whole matter has been basically investigated, and the other female victim has died. They're trying to take your grandmother's legacy, aren't they? β
"Yes." An Qing said calmly. For now, it's a good shield. Besides, it's useless to talk more, after all, there are some things that even An Qing herself can't figure out now.
"There are four people present, you are the only survivor. In addition, we have launched a manhunt to track down his accomplices. The female police officer said as she recorded.
"Oh." The other two are dead?? How could it be, it was clear that the uncle just fainted, and she didn't see the uncle's soul leave the body.
"Do you know what happened before you fell unconscious?" The female officer stared into her eyes and said fixedly.
"I ...... I do not know. As she spoke, An Qing covered her cheeks with her hands in frustration and choked up and sobbed. Although that person committed a heinous crime, An Qing did not have the right to decide the life and death of others, which was a crime. In the grinding, she learned to act and act in the eyes of others. As a momentary answer.
The female officer shook her pen and said, "Okay, so be it, you can leave at any time when you're rested." Also, I am Officer Tian, please contact me if there is any situation. β
An Qing looked at the business card she handed over, it seemed that this Officer Tian also had a small background. It seems that she will have to be careful in the future, after all, she doesn't know if there is a surveillance video record now, so the leader is not so stupid, right? Just in case. She still pretended to have something and gently touched her hand.
At that moment, An Qing learned that they had obtained the surveillance video. And An Qing is very suspicious, but now she can only let her go, there are really too many things I don't understand. They tweaked it over and over again, but they still couldn't figure out who could have the strength to make the safe almost straight down at the leader. The camera couldn't catch that moment and flashed. An Qing knew that it was the effect of the flow of soul power on the connection signal. But it was impossible for them to know all this. And what made Officer Tian most suspicious was that An Qing had disappeared for a while......
"Is there something wrong?" Officer Tian, who had just turned around and was about to leave, looked back at An Qing.
"Oh, it's fine, it's just a little uncomfortable." An Qing frowned slightly.
"It's fine after this time, you can rest well when you get home." Officer Tian looked at An Qing with a smile, "Then I'll go and get busy first, and contact me at any time if I have something." β
"Okay, thank you." An Qing watched her leave.
An Qing relaxed her body and leaned against the wall, exhaling deeply, now that there is nothing wrong with her body, it is time to go.
After packing her luggage, just as An Qing was about to get out of bed, the old aunt gently pushed the door and came in.
"An Qing!" An Qing looked towards the door, she seemed to be much older, and her face was very haggard. It seems that she already knows about her uncle. Although she has a lot of discord with her husband, An Qing knows that her aunt still loves her uncle very much, which is why their relationship between husband and wife has always been maintained.
At night, An Qing sleeps at home with her aunt, and at night, An Qing can always hear bursts of crying from the next room, although she tries her best to keep her voice down, but it is still heard by An Qing. In fact, when she came back that day, the old aunt tried to downplay what happened today, but An Qing could see her depression.
During the meal, the old aunt said that he had made many mistakes in his life, but it would not be such a big punishment. An Qing just listened quietly. Sometimes, listening silently can soothe a confused heart more than taking the initiative to say some comforting words.
Later, after the funeral, An Qing said goodbye to her aunt. She knew that this goodbye might be forever, because in a few days, the old aunt would be back to her hometown. Although An Qing also wanted to send her, she had to take Sister Luo's ashes back immediately. And, more importantly, An Qing is tired of separation. Just because you can't see it doesn't mean your heart doesn't hurt, but at least it doesn't hurt so much.
An Qing buried Sister Luo next to her grandmother, which can be regarded as having a companionship with each other. Thinking about what I know now, I also wonder what I am doing, even my soul has been lost, why do I still have to pay tribute. Maybe it's not the deceased who is being sacrificed, it's ourselves who is being sacrificed, just for a formal form of psychological comfort. The time to and from Salt River Town was like a trip of memory, so many things had happened before and after, and the relatives around her had left one after another, and she seemed to be a little numb now. An Qing was on the train back, looking at the scene outside the window, looking at the key in her hand, which was left by her aunt to An Qing, perhaps, it was time to "go home".
"Who do you think killed your uncle? Hey. Suddenly, a girl's voice came. An Qing, looking around with alert eyes, did not find a suspicious object, but whose mind was the word.
"I'm across from you." As he spoke, the man on the other side smiled slyly.
"Who are you? Come out for me! Although An Qing calmly passed the message back, she felt that this person was not simple.
"I'm coming out? Hehehe...... I am attached to him, I have completely counteracted his breath, and without him, he will die. Besides, I don't want his body either. She tilted her head and looked at An Qing and said.
Sure enough, she is definitely not something An Qing can deal with. She knew that it was necessary to consume the yang energy of a living person in order to occupy the body, and this also required the corresponding consumption of the negative soul power in her soul form, but she did not have the slightest burden, it can also be said that she did not dissipate, and she was able to completely control this man's body.
"Oh? Hehe, it looks like you're scared, right? She laughed, and then said, "Don't look at me like that, you should take that disgust?" Yes, and give it back to yourself with a look of fear. β
"You have committed a great taboo by borrowing things and people in the soul state, and you have also killed people. What's the difference between this and what I do? What's more, after such a powerful divine movement, you are still alive. She stared at An Qing and raised the corners of her mouth weirdly.
"What is your purpose?" An Qing asked calmly.
"Oh? It seems that you really don't remember. She looked down and sighed, then continued, "You actually killed your uncle, you know?" β
"Who the hell are you, what are you talking nonsense?" An Qing asked impatiently.
"How do you think you can replenish the lost soul power limit that is beyond your ability? You devoured his soul in a soul state! The man smiled sinisterly.
An Qing was silent, judging from the current situation, this is a possibility that cannot be ruled out at all. She also knew that devouring souls was one of the ways to replenish the boundaries of soul power, but it would corrupt the mind. If what the man said was true, this kind of resistance consciousness was something she never expected.
"What? Still not convinced? How about I'll show you? As she spoke, she touched An Qing's hand.
It turned out that she had been observing in the dark, and she had seen everything that was happening at that time. She saw herself float next to her uncle and open her closed mouth like a tearing sound like that dream......
"Even if it's true, what does it have to do with you?" An Qing knew that she was against her heart, although her uncle treated her very badly, she would never do such a thing.
She pretended to be surprised, her eyes widened and she said, "Heh! So calm. Of course it has something to do with me," she smiled, "The taste of your soul power this time will cause you a lot of trouble. I think you're really impatient, you'd better get out of this place, what about me? Just to give you a heads up. β
She was just about to get up and prepare to leave, when she suddenly added: "By the way, your uncle is still 'alive'." β
"What ?!!" An Qing shouted. An Qing stepped forward and grabbed her collar, and suddenly she felt that the person who was being controlled collapsed, it turned out that she broke away in an instant just now, and the dead person lost his mobility and fell directly to the ground. The people around him who saw this immediately panicked, and An Qing couldn't get out this time.
Suddenly, An Qing heard the girl's voice: "If you want to live, run away." Also, don't thank me. β
An Qing looked around vigilantly, this voice was hers, but An Qing didn't find any trace of her, and what did this sentence mean.
Suddenly, a "boom-" sound came from the front of the train, An Qing felt very uneasy, and she couldn't care so much, so she changed her body and went out to find out what was going on. When An Qing flew above the train, she was stunned, it turned out that the girl had "interrupted" the bridge in front of her? Does she have this power? The sound didn't look like explosives or any other means at all, just the sound of a natural break, which must have broken the key parts and caused the entire bridge to collapse. This man is definitely not simple. She has the ability to manipulate subtle forces with precision.
Rescue method, rescue method? An Qing was anxious and didn't know what to do. It is estimated that it will only take a minute or so to fall from the broken bridge in front of you and fall into the cliff between the two mountains. It's too late to go back and pull the emergency valve.
"Cut...... No way! An Qing flew in front of the locomotive, on top of the broken bridge. Now, that's all she can do. She used all her soul power to move the direction of the train in reverse, and the energy required was far beyond An Qing's self-perceived soul power limit. The rails rubbed and burst into sparks, and the sound was jarring and maddening.
"Ahh
Seeing that the train was sliding forward and about to break out of the broken bridge, An Qing tried her best to slow down the train, but to no avail, she seemed to be able to hear the screams of the victims. And her own condition is also quite bad, in this situation of high concentration, she has exhausted her energy extremely much, and nearly half of her body has been forced to withdraw from the soul form, which is quite dangerous, because in such a body that is forced to recover, the cells are completely dead, which is equivalent to gradually "recovering" into a dead corpse.
It spread rapidly from half of his face, and even An Qing's right hand, which controlled the flow of soul power, was corpsed. She felt exhausted, and with nearly half of the corpses present, she couldn't even stay afloat. The consciousness is gradually blurred, and it may be about to invade the brain, An Qing thought.
Before she could react, An Qing had already begun to fall freely uncontrollably. Immediately afterwards, the train also broke out of the broken bridge, fell into a deep cliff, and crashed into the mountain wall in front of it. An Qing looked at the train that rushed out of the broken bridge above her, and felt a sense of relief, this is? Could it be just pretending to be strong? Are they really innocent? Absolutely innocent? Maybe it's long over, are the people on this train, are there craftsmen, white-collar workers or teachers? There may be some people who are not positioned. Everybody's damned, right? We, human beings, are always terrified when we see the scene of human beings being mutilated. And you have never considered other creatures, when you see the destruction of wild animals, have you ever thought about it? Can you see the countless elephants killed for their tusks? Are the destroyed animal homes a matter of course, and how do you feel when the human homes are destroyed? Have you ever put yourself in their shoes?
We always do things that we take for granted, litter, and destroy things that we think we don't care about. But creatures that are more fragile than you may fall victim to your "indifferent" behavior. So, where does the goodness in your mouth come from? It's ridiculous.
Everyone runs their own life circle in a dignified manner, but who knows the other side of you? Maybe it's just you, right? And so what......
That's it, maybe she really pretended to be strong, and the result of this kind of hard work made her more able to close her eyes "with peace of mind".
"Boom!" The sound of trains crashing against the mountain wall came one after another, and the flames were everywhere.
Along with the wreckage of the flying train, and those miserable cries, they fell in the setting sun. An Qing only felt that her body was very light and comfortable, and it seemed that the sensation of the shards scratching her body had become indifferent. It's gone. The answer is not necessary. She wanted to ......
As then, a silvery light surrounded her and floated from the smoke of depravity. The snow-white and cold color made An Qing feel warm. An Qing subconsciously hugged its neck and lay on its body, feeling extremely safe. On its body, there was a familiar smell of An Qing, which made her completely let down her guard with peace of mind......
"In the next few months, study hard and prepare for the college entrance examination. You can stay here first, I've already found a babysitter for you. A man whispered in An Qing's ear.
An Qing didn't know how long she had been in a coma, her head was heavy, and she didn't know what was going on.
"Don't worry, your soul power is very weak now, and there will be no trouble. If you have something to do in the future, just call me. With that, he left.
An Qing's eyes widened, who the hell is this person? How can there be such a lucky thing in the world? Repeatedly rescued? Moreover, he didn't explain to her what was going on, and hurried away. Also, where to call him? An Qing smiled bitterly, she didn't want to think about it anymore, just do what she wants.
"Forget itβ" An Qing sighed and sat up from the bed.
An Qing looked at the calendar hanging on the wall, February 1st, it turned out that she had been in a coma for less than a week. She didn't know how many classes she had missed before, and now it is the only few days of winter vacation, because the college entrance examination is approaching, the vacation is very short, and school will start in a few days. Before that, you have to "sort out" yourself. Later, she was really not used to the role of a nanny, so she politely sent away.
Self-study on Monday morning. Seeing that she was about to be late, An Qing accelerated and rushed to the classroom. The moment Ayako saw An Qing step into the classroom, she almost launched from her desk. grabbed Ayako with one hand, and didn't care about the eyes of other classmates. Rushing with enthusiasm, Ayako also forgot about going to class right away, and dragged Ayako out without saying a word, ready to interrogate her.
"You've been gone for a long time, you know? What the hell are you doing? He ignored me and didn't return the phone. Ayako had a disgruntled expression.
"I'm sorry, something happened at home lately. I'm sorry to worry you. An Qing also knew that she couldn't live with her, but she didn't know how to explain it.
"Well, I'm not going to bother with you. But be sure to tell me next time, unless you don't want me as a girlfriend anymore! Ayako pouted. She knew in her heart that now, the relatives closest to An Qing have also left, not to talk about the relationship, but the feeling of having relatives to tie up is gone. However, although An Qing didn't mention it, she wouldn't ask, she respected her at all times.
"Of course, how can I leave you. I'll treat you to a big dinner after school in a moment. An Qing said as she pulled Ayako's hand. This guy is really comforting, An Qing laughed.
"That's what it sounds like!" She gritted her teeth and laughed. The two of them were standing in the corridor chatting with each other, and at some point, Ban Ren had already arrived and stood behind An Qing.
"An Qing!" Ayako was so frightened that she secretly pointed behind her. It turned out that Ban Ren was standing behind. As soon as An Qing turned her head, she saw Ban Ren's serious expression.
"An Qing, you come to the office with me." Ban Ren turned and walked to the office. An Qing smiled awkwardly at Ayako, and followed Ban Ren.
A whole set of criticism and education, An Qing patiently accepted it all. She just stood in front of Ban Ren and nodded from time to time, and she also understood that the teacher was for her good. After all, in this country, the gaokao is an exam that almost decides fate. When he finally left, the teacher said a sentence and said, "With your previous strength, you can be admitted to Guhai University." I want you to be accountable to yourself. β
She naturally understands that Guhai University is the best university for liberal arts majors. She didn't expect that the teacher still had so much confidence in her, which couldn't help but make An Qing feel very encouraged. Perhaps, it's time to bring yourself back to real life.
This time is very precious to her, and she and Ayako are also working very hard to seize the quantitative study time. Every day, watching the countdown written on the blackboard get closer and closer, I can feel full of energy. Despite the intense study life, the two girlfriends often go shopping in their busy days, and occasionally indulge in an afternoon of crazy indulgence on weekends. In the class, Qi Kai occasionally came over and said a word, although the jokes he told were not laughing at all, but his expression always made the two of them feel very funny. And Ayako often jokes about him, and An Qing, who is happy, can't close her mouth. Although there may be some small things caught in the middle before, nothing can beat time, under its washing, nothing matters, a simple greeting can dissolve everything. The relationship between the three of them is also much closer, and they often eat together. This feeling is fulfilling and happy, and she hopes to continue it forever......
