Chapter Eighty-Five: Approaching the Truth
The two left the ruins of Huaxia University, preparing to find a place to sit down and use their mobile phones to check relevant information.
But after walking a few steps, Xiao Chen said, "Wait a minute." ”
He made a turn and walked briskly to a street corner, which was a flower shop.
Luo Ling ran over after him and said, "Flower shop, what are you going to do? This shop hasn't opened yet." ”
Xiao Chen pointed to the air window on the door of the flower shop, he mobilized his spiritual power, went around the air window and rolled towards the flowers, only to see flowers flying out of the bucket containing flowers inside, and came to his hands through the air window.
Xiao Chen picked flowers very casually, roses, jasmine, Fulang, daisies, everything, and after a short while, he had a bouquet of flowers in his hand.
"What are you?"
Xiao Chen took out his wallet from his pocket and took out a hundred yuan, threw it into the window, and the money floated into the flower shop and landed on the table.
"I've never been here in this world, but when I see that big hole, I find that some people just disappear, and I always feel like I want to do something. The bouquet of flowers in Xiao Chen's hand returned to the edge of the wall, and without seeing him move, the flowers on the bouquet left his hand one by one, crossed the barbed wire fence of the wall, and floated towards the middle of the big pit.
"I didn't expect you to be quite emotional sometimes. Luo Ling said.
"There have to be times when you stop and look around, right? Otherwise, you're going to miss a lot of important things by just looking at the target in front of you. Xiao Chen turned around, holding a red rose in his hand. This is the flower he left behind after he scattered all the flowers, "After all, we were not born to defeat the gods of nature. ”
Luo Ling took the flower with a smile, and just wanted to tease him, but her expression darkened.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Chen asked.
"Just thinking about how many worlds we've all died. Now many people's expectations are actually placed on us, counting on us to bring about a change in the ending......" Luo Ling said.
"Why not? Maybe we could really do something different. Xiao Chen grabbed her shoulders and walked out slowly.

Not far from the ruins of Huaxia University, they found a chain of fast-food restaurants, it was breakfast time, they ordered some food, found a place to sit down, and began to use their mobile phones to look for missing person notices two years ago.
After looking for a while, Luo Ling said: "I found a memorial website, which is used to commemorate the missing people in this incident, and there should be photo information of most of the people on it." ”
"Send me the link and I'll read it with you. Xiao Chen said.
After Xiao Chen received the link, he opened the webpage and began to flip through the photos, there were more than 800 missing people registered on this website, and it took more than an hour to look at them carefully. But Xiao Chen looked back and forth for a long time, but he didn't see anyone similar to He Xiaoxi, he said, "It seems that I guessed wrong." But this is normal, it is just speculation without clues. ”
Luo Ling said: "Wait, I have a question. How do you know that He Xiaoxi is what she was when we saw her?"
"This ......"
"Even you and I can use magic to disguise our images, can't the gods even do this?" Luo Ling asked rhetorically.
"You mean, she 'facelifted' herself?" Xiao Chen touched his nose, "It's a big trouble, who knows if she just opened a double eyelid or changed her face." ”
"No, that's not what I meant, do you think He Xiaoxi is good-looking?" Luo Ling asked.
"To tell the truth, He Xiaoxi is a delicate girl, but she is definitely not a big beauty. Xiao Chen glanced at Luo Ling and felt that this was a scoring question, "The gap between me and you is a very, very huge drop." ”
"Stop, stop, do you think I can't see that you're at odds? Luo Ling scolded with a smile.
Look at the way I look. Xiao Chen pointed to his eyes, "Sincere." ”
"Sincerely look left and right, look around. ”
"To tell the truth, I said that you are beautiful and she is not beautiful by conscience, He Xiaoxi, the side of her nose is a little concave, and she looks like a moonlight on the side, and she looks like the bottom of a pot. It's like your face, where it should be straight, where it should be flat, where it should be flat. ”
Luo Ling sneered and said, "Okay, don't talk nonsense. Since you don't think He Xiaoxi is so good-looking, I think that's pretty much her true face. If she really wants to change her appearance, why don't she make herself more beautiful? She hasn't even changed the nose you said, which means that she doesn't have this in mind. Actually, I can understand her, when you lose all your memories and don't even know where you come from, your appearance may be the only connection to the past. If I had reached that point, I wouldn't have changed my appearance easily, but maybe some person or god would recognize my identity and find my past when they saw my appearance?"
"That's the truth. Then why do you say that you saw her appearance?" Xiao Chen said.
Luo Ling said: "You know, when a person becomes a spirit servant, he often becomes the appearance of the peak moment, to put it simply, no matter how old or young, he will tend to become the appearance of his twenties. Of course, there are some exceptions, which are particularly powerful magicians who deliberately maintain their former state. But people with lower strength cannot resist this life instinct. ”
"You mean, He Xiaoxi may be an old aunt?"
"According to my experience of talking with him, judging from the feeling of gestures and words, she is more like a little girl. ”
"Heh, a little girl over 10,000 years old?"
Luo Ling said: "You must know that some of the changes in human habitual language and movements are related to physical growth. That's because the brain and nerves that control themselves are not yet fully developed, and why the old man becomes steady, it's because the body becomes sluggish and stiff. If the body of the god has not changed for 10,000 years, it is normal for it to maintain its original habitual movements. ”
"I understand, I'm going to find a female student who looks like He Xiaoxi, if she's not a college student, it's likely to be a student at the nearby Meisheng High School. Xiao Chen said, and began to go through the records again.
Twenty minutes later, he suddenly shouted, "Look, this girl, isn't it a little similar?"
Luo Ling came over to take a look, and the screen was a commemorative page for a female high school student. Above is a life photo, in which a girl with a double ponytail is standing on the Bund, and on the back are several high-rise buildings in the Oriental Pearl and Lujiazui, she is smiling brightly and is comparing her heart to the camera. Look at her file again, the name written on it is: He Xiaoxi.
