415. Photographs
"How are you?" Chu Zihang supported Gu Bei.
Gu Bei shook his head: "I'm fine."
As he spoke, he mobilized Yuan Qi and urged his whole hands to wipe his face, and the originally shocking wound healed in an instant.
There is no other power attached to this wound, and it will not be as difficult to heal as the damage caused by the power of heaven and earth.
Speaking of which, the knife was actually not strong, Gu Bei couldn't dodge it, it was purely careless, and he didn't dodge.
After all, he was almost dragged into the past by Chu Tianjiao just now, and his energy was consumed too much, so he didn't react.
And there is a strange ability to erase cause and effect in that knife.
The line of text that was crossed out was a kind of "non-existence" from the result, so even if Gu Bei just glanced at it, it was also affected.
But fortunately, the view is strong enough, even if cause and effect are erased, it still allows Gu Bei to see that line of words.
Odin。
Odin.
King of the gods in Norse mythology.
"Killed" Chu Tianjiao's murderer.
Gu Beiwei really didn't expect to see this name here, but after thinking about it, he felt a little reasonable.
After all, this is a fixed entrance and exit to Odin's Nibelungen, and it is normal for the members of the executive department who come here to have a mission related to Odin.
It's nothing more than Chu Tian's arrogant and capable people, investigating Odin while investigating Nidhogg.
The question is, which of these is his task? Which one did it subjectively by himself?
According to the style of the Kassel Executive Department, the possibility of arranging these two tasks at the same time can basically be ruled out, after all, both Odin and Nidhogg have already surpassed the level of the Dragon King and reached the realm of gods.
Investigate the two of them at the same time, this is not called a mission, it is called sending to death.
So only one of these two things was Chu Tianjiao's task - or neither.
What the specific situation is, Gu Bei can't deduce too much.
And he has decided to use the contemplation method as little as possible in the future.
This thing is so disgusting, Gu Bei used it three times in total, the first time he was directly blind, the second time he almost burped, and the third time he was cut in the eye, almost breaking his appearance.
Gu Bei felt that this thing was poisonous.
He decided that as long as he didn't unlock the Daluo Cave for a day, he wouldn't need to observe the Dharma for a day - in other words, this situation wouldn't get worse after unlocking the Daluo Cave Temple, right?
Gu Bei thought about it and couldn't help but shudder.
Forget it, it's safe.
However, although the experience is not very good, the effect of the observation is unquestionable.
Several uses have helped Gu Bei obtain key information.
Especially this last time, not only did he get the important clue that Chu Tianjiao had investigated Odin, but also found a special person - the man who couldn't see clearly.
Ability to destroy cause and effect.
One thing to say, this range is not large, but it is not small.
To put it up, Gu Bei Odin Lu Ming Ze Black King has this ability, and to put it down, in fact, some special words and spirits also have a similar effect.
And if you want to destroy cause and effect, you don't necessarily rely on yourself.
For example, the Kungunir in Odin's hand, even if an ordinary person holds Kungunir, he can still rewrite his fate - at most, it is just to drain the user to the man.
If the dagger in that man's hand was also a similar top-level alchemy weapon, then the range would be even greater.
Finding it is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
At present, the only clue that Gu Bei has is that he does not know this person.
At least not familiar.
Although he didn't see the other party's face clearly, Gu Bei was sure that the other party was not any of the high-level bloodlines he knew.
It's not Odin, it's not Lu Mingze, it's not Chu Tianjiao, it's not Ange and Vice Principal.
But Gu Bei felt a certain sense of familiarity from the other party—as if he had met somewhere before, and had a one-sided relationship
。
These two feelings are quite contradictory, but they also point out the direction to Gu Bei: a person who has seen before, but has not had deep contact, has a high blood rank, but is well disguised.
Although I have a goal, I am afraid that it will be troublesome to find it.
There are hundreds of similar targets in Gu Bei, and they can't be confirmed one by one.
It seems that it can only be fate.
Gu Bei thought about it, and finally gave up the idea of pulling the other party out.
"There shouldn't be any valuable clues here," Gu Bei took out a tissue and wiped the blood on his eyes, "There are things left for you by your uncle in the pool and workbench over there, you take your time, I'll go out first."
Gu Bei said, stretched out his hand to grab the steel pipe, and climbed up in two or three clicks.
Chu Zihang watched Gu Bei's figure leave from the secret door above, and then came to the workbench as Gu Bei said.
The light of the flashlight flashed on the workbench, and the things on it were unobstructed, and Chu Zihang was stunned for a moment when he saw those things clearly.
There was no water in the pool at all, but a developer used to wash photographs, and next to the pool was a workbench in front of which was a cork board with pictures pinned with thumbtacks.
If you look closely, you'll see that the photos were all stolen.
In amusement parks, in shopping malls, in restaurants, through the grass, through the glass, through the rain......
The people in the photo are all women and children without exception - Su Xiaoyan when she was young and Chu Zihang, who was still baby-faced.
Su Xiaojiao in the photo shows many different looks.
Laughing, staring, lonely, like mothers, little girls, wives......
Gu Bei always likes to complain, saying that Sister Xiaoyan is like a yellow-haired girl who doesn't grow up.
What is a yellow-haired girl?
It's like a hairy boy who has no heart and liver, sleeps when he is full, sleeps when he is full, sleeps when he is full, wants to be beautiful, and has no heart.
But under Chu Tianjiao's lens, Su Xiaoyan is so changeable, no matter what kind of change, she is so beautiful.
This is really the man who loves Su Xiaoyan in the world, only by loving someone so much can he pay attention to her every moment and make her beautiful in a thousand ways.
As for Chu Zihang...... Chu Zihang in the photo had a cold face from beginning to end.
However, this matter does not complain about Chu Tianjiao's photography skills.
This man's love for his son is the same, but it's a pity that Young Master Chu is a natural cool brother, even if it is a roller coaster, he can sit the whole distance expressionlessly, and then comment: "General."
There's no way, the young master is so ruthless.
There is also an entrepreneur surnamed Lu.
He occasionally accidentally entered the mirror, and he didn't know what trick Chu Tianjiao used, washing that guy very blurry, purely a ball of light and shadow.
Chu Zihang could even think of this man muttering and scolding while washing the photos.
It's even a little cute.
It turns out that even such a free and easy man is not completely uncaring...... He also hopes that the man opposite his wife and children is himself, right?
Chu Zihang was silent, and his eyes fell on the words marked with a red pen in the corner of the photo.
"It's your first year away from me, and you look good."
"It's the second year, please don't be so haggard."
"In the third year, you're fat."
"In the fourth year, I have less time to think of you."
"In the fifth year, it will continue to be fewer."
"Sixth year, but I still miss you......"
「……」
Chu Zihang's face appeared in front of him again, and he introduced the song he chose to Chu Zihang in a shy, completely ignoring that the song was actually about a father warning his daughter to be careful of men.
Hell, who would warn his son to watch out for men through a song?
He was afraid that he would not have been drunk to do such a thing.
And these, these photos.
Chu Zihang pinched the photo, and the bone joints turned a little white hard, but he did not leave a trace of wrinkles on the photo.
That's what the man thought.
The man smoked the world's most expensive cigar, listened to hundreds of thousands of dollars of vinyl, drunk himself with island whiskey, and then washed the photo while writing and drawing in the corner, as if talking to the woman in the photo......
But when he faced Chu Zihang, he always looked like he was giggling, as if he didn't care about anything.
How can you not take it to heart?
It's just not written on the face.
Chu Zihang stretched out his hand and wanted to take the photo off the wooden board and take it away, but his hand was halfway up and he paused again.
Take it away?
Where to take it?
Who to show it?
Chu Zihang's hand retracted.
Forget it.
Let's stay here.
Take everything that man has, along with his love.
Chu Zihang sat in front of the workbench, looked at a photo, and fell into a long silence.
Outside, Gu Bei walked out of the basement.
He stood in front of the small gray and white building and lit a cigarette.
The white mist curled up, obscuring his obscure gaze.
Gu Bei rarely smokes, and he drinks too little, his life is very regular, and doctors say that he is very healthy - after all, he is a cultivator, there are six reservoirs of immortal thieves, and tar and nicotine are just energy, and they will not cause harm to the body.
It's true that Gu Bei rarely smokes, but ......
Chu Tianjiao, this man deserves Gu Bei to make an exception.
Gu Bei knew that those photos existed.
He even witnessed Chu Tianjiao washing out those photos one by one and then drying them, watching him write his thoughts word by word on the edge of the photos.
The view of the law is so good, and even let Gu Bei be immersed in the scene and understand everything.
also made Gu Bei reacquaint himself with Chu Tianjiao again.
To be honest, at the beginning, Gu Bei didn't have a good impression of this man who abandoned his wife and children, even if he was Chu Zihang's biological father.
But now...... He admitted that Chu Tianjiao was a man.
If before this, Gu Bei was looking for Chu Tianjiao to help Chu Zihang, then from now on, he sincerely wanted to meet this man.
Not for anything else, just to toast him.
Gu Bei was swallowing clouds and spitting fog, and there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, it was the middle-aged man who had been a colleague with Chu Tianjiao.
He didn't know when he left, and now he had just returned, still carrying two bags in his hand.
Gu Bei's nose moved, and he smelled the smell of cooked food.
Grilled chicken wings and ...... Marinated large intestine?
Gu Bei glanced at the man with a strange look in his eyes.
This person really likes to eat braised large intestines and grilled chicken wings, no wonder he can mix with Chu Tianjiao,
At this time, the man also saw Gu Bei standing in front of the building, the man was stunned for a moment, and then looked left and right: "Why are you yourself, little brother?" Where's that little brother?"
"Don't be a little brother, my surname is Gu." Gu Bei glanced at him, compared his figure with the man he saw in the view, and came to a mismatched conclusion, "He's still down there."
"Oh, it turned out to be Brother Gu." The middle-aged man smiled and nodded, "I just went out and bought grilled chicken wings, let's eat some together?"
Gu Bei waved his hand.
Gu Bei didn't eat, and the middle-aged man didn't force it, but he didn't seem to have something on his mind, and he didn't leave after he finished speaking, but hesitated in place.
After a while, he finally made up his mind, and said after consideration, "I want to ask, the other little brother, is his surname Chu?"
Gu Bei glanced at him and didn't speak.
The middle-aged man scratched the back of his head and understood.
He also just reacted, Chu Zihang and Chu Tian were arrogant
has an eight-point likeness, and the age is about the same, he should have guessed that the other party was Chu Tianjiao's baby son.
"I didn't expect Lao Chu's sons to be so old." The middle-aged man said happily, "Back then, Lao Chu often talked about his baby son, every time he talked about his son, he seemed to have won five million in the lottery ticket, and he was proud, and he also said that when his son got married, he would take us to the banquet together, all of them would be the uncle's table, and let each of us wrap a big red envelope for his son......
The middle-aged man seemed to have opened the conversation box, and he chattered endlessly.
Gu Bei stood aside and listened silently while perfecting the image of Chu Tianjiao in his heart.
"Alas, Lao Chu left without any warning, the brothers who had a good relationship couldn't believe it after hearing the news, such a big person, said no, it was gone, he also asked me to eat barbecue that day, I persuaded him not to get out of the car because the rain was too big, he didn't listen, he had to go, and something happened after he went...... Later, the brothers could only accept it, and Lao Chu didn't have any friends, so his son came to see him this time after so many years...... Oh no, there was another person who came to see it, and it was ......."
"Wait!" Gu Bei intercepted the middle-aged man's words, "You just said that someone once came?"
"yes." The middle-aged man nodded, "Just a few years ago."
Gu Bei frowned: "Didn't you say before that no one had ever come?"
"Didn't I think about it all of a sudden," the middle-aged man was pressed by Gu Bei's momentum, and the whole person was sluggish, "The main thing is that that person came once at that time, and he stayed in it for a few minutes, and then he never came again, I didn't pay much attention to it, if you didn't come here, I would have forgotten about it."
"And do you remember what that man looked like?" Gu Bei asked eagerly.
The middle-aged man thought for a moment, "What does it look like...... I don't remember exactly, but the main reason is that the person is too ordinary, nothing special, just an ordinary person's appearance, no characteristics."
"What about age? What about wearing? Are there any of the characteristics?"
"Age...... It's about the same age as Lao Chu, and it's said that Lao Chu is a classmate of Liuyang, wearing a black suit, oh, I remember, the suit that person wore was a miscellaneous brand, and only the discount store in the west of the city sold it in the whole Huicheng, and this dress was made by that store itself, and there was no second one in the country."
Gu Bei's eyes lit up.
There is a clue.
