Chapter 34: Departure
In the wee hours of the morning, the sun had not yet risen, and the sky was still dark. The north wind was howling, a little cold, Ye Chen pulled the collar on his body and exhaled a breath of heat. He stood next to a dead tree in Ishimura, an old well beneath it. The brute behind him had not yet awakened, buried his head in one of its large wings, and stood on the edge of the well, snoring and sleeping.
Ye Chen stretched out his hand, gently stroked its white feathers, and slid it into his hand.
"Goo!"
The brute felt the touch and stretched out his head buried in his wings. A pair of eyes are very bright even in the dim wee morning.
Blinking his eyes, he twisted his head to look at Ye Chen. It had no thoughts, only instincts, staring at Ye Chen left and right, and seemed to have some doubts.
It has no thoughts, but it has animal instincts, and it seems to understand something. It couldn't speak, only cooing a few times. Then, he buried his head in Ye Chen, rubbing back and forth, as if he was looking for support, and as if he was relying on Ye Chen, he was reluctant to let Ye Chen.
Ye Chen didn't say anything, and gently touched its head, as if comforting before saying goodbye.
Ye Chen had thought it out since yesterday, he had to leave Shicun. Thinking of yesterday, the picture of the stars arranging and arranging, holding a golden spear with a lifelike golden dragon engraved on the body of the spear, just standing in the void. There were a few black shadows flickering in front of him, and Ye Chen stood on top of the earth, far away from those black shadows, and never retreated half a step. He didn't know what kind of character he was playing, but he knew that he wouldn't betray Earth, even if it was death. Because there is his family on the earth, and he has his whole life to guard.
Ye Chen withdrew from his thoughts and came back to his senses. He put down his brute hand, took a step, and went straight to the old man's house. Bow deeply to the old man's house. This kind old man has given him too much and taught him many things, just like a teacher, more like an elder and a relative.
Everything was in a word, Ye Chen walked to the entrance of the village, he didn't bother anyone, he didn't tell anyone. Because he doesn't like the atmosphere of parting, let's say goodbye without a word!
Ye Chen walked out of the village entrance and looked back. The scenes experienced here are haunting in my heart, Brother Shi's barbecue, Aunt Lin's braised fish, and Aunt Shi's lamb chops, each of which is so unforgettable.
In front of the campfire in the village, there are still a few sticks of firewood glowing, which have not been extinguished, even in the last moments of life, they will burn.
It was there, after Ye Chen left with Quartz yesterday, he returned here and sat in front of the bonfire with everyone to say goodbye to something that only he knew. In order not to regret yourself.
Ye Chen withdrew his eyes and stopped doing unnecessary sentimentality. The sky is about to dawn, and looking at the horizon in the distance, the horizon has begun to slowly whiten. Retracting his thoughts, Ye Chen was about to start his journey. But before that, I have to go somewhere... Looking at the sky, Ye Chen's eyes gathered.
Ishimura, in a dimly lit room. The old man was sitting on the bed, meditating with his eyes closed, and at the moment when Ye Chen left, his eyes suddenly broke open. His eyes are deep, and his face is full of sadness. His eyes were in the dim room, extremely bright, and he looked blankly at the place where Ye Chen left, showing a lonely look.
“...”
The sky is getting brighter, the sun is rising, and the sun is shining on the earth, warming people's hearts.
Ye Chen walked alone in the mountains, surrounded by insects and birds. Drops of dew drip from the corners of the leaves, and the weather begins to warm up.
It was originally a scenery that could make people feel comfortable and yearning, but Ye Chen's face was full of sadness, and he was apprehensive and particularly uneasy. This is the feeling that every child who leaves home and goes to another world will have.
Suddenly, Ye Chen's uneasy feeling came from his heart, and his hairs stood up, this was the sixth sense in warning! Ye Chen immediately put on a fighting posture and stared at the front with a serious expression.
Bang!
Suddenly, a cold light flickered. In front of Ye Chen, a ray of light suddenly rose like lightning, and the speed was extremely fast, approaching Ye Chen's chest. In a panic, Ye Chen hurriedly dodged with the help of the warning of the sixth sense.
Bite!
With a soft sound, a thousand-pound boulder behind Ye Chen actually opened in response, directly splitting in half, and the incision at the break was very smooth. Seeing Ye Chen's brows, he broke out in a cold sweat, and his heart was at the extreme. Fortunately, I have a sixth sense warning, otherwise just now, it would not only be the boulder that was split, but I would have to add myself.
Ye Chen's expression seemed calm, but he was already flustered in his heart, just now he was once again on the verge of death. For the fear of death, he still remembers it vividly, but he didn't expect that it didn't take long for him to feel this feeling again, which was really not wonderful!
And until now, Ye Chen didn't know what was attacking him? I didn't even see a shadow, how much specific strength was there? But just now, it can be seen that he is obviously much higher than himself, at least he can't do it, split the thousand catties of boulders, and split it so neatly.
The enemy is in the dark, and it is very unfavorable to him!" Ye Chen thought very unhappily. In addition, the overall strength is much higher than himself, and the probability of winning is almost zero.
However, even so, Ye Chen would not give up, because until the last moment, no one knew the ending.
Ye Chen remained in a state of battle like this, guarding his surroundings, and the feeling of uneasiness around his body continued. At this moment, a black shadow walked out of a giant tree, Ye Chen's expression was very serious, and he didn't dare to be careless.
It's just that after seeing the person coming clearly, Ye Chen was suddenly at a loss.
"Brother Xiaoman, you, what's wrong with you?" Ye Chen was surprised, and his tone was a little stammering. He was very surprised and asked the visitor, "Why is it you?"
"Why can't it be me?" Xiao Man glanced at Ye Chen and said angrily.
"No, why are you here?" Ye Chen asked. I was very strange in my heart, and my surprise was self-evident.
After hearing Ye Chen's words, Xiao Man said to Ye Chen angrily: "What? Do you think you are the only one who is smart? As for your abnormal performance yesterday, everyone can see it." ”
"Am I so obvious?" Ye Chen was surprised and looked at Xiao Man with doubts.
I saw Xiao Man's head raised high, looking scared, looking at Ye Chen proudly and nodded.
Looking at Xiao Man's expression, why did Ye Chen feel so uncomfortable, and asked with a suspicious look, "Did Grandpa Shi tell you?"
Hearing this, Xiao Man suddenly became agitated and almost fell. The facial expression also became unnatural, but he immediately came back to his senses and pretended to be calm and said, "How is this possible, I found it myself." ”
Yes, Ye Chen understood at a glance. It must have been told by the old man, and he was still pretending to be here. Ye Chen didn't say anything, so he let him be in the house for once.
