Chapter 255: Meet Father-in-law II
"Don't you understand, Xiaojie?" Shen Hongsheng stopped his singing: "You are different from them, you were born to be a Roman, you were born to belong here." β
"Why is this happening?" The mood of everyone who finally relaxed a little bit tensed up again.
"Pull her out!" Yu Bo and Xiong Ji said in unison.
It didn't work.
Even if Xiao Yao held Shen Jie's hand tightly, the situation did not change in the slightest.
"Why don't you try changing clothes stores?" Yu Luying proposed.
However, it was in vain for everyone to go to the clothing store, and the mirror there was still strong for Shen Jie.
Shen Hongsheng was still singing, but he changed from "Christ's Condemnation" to the humming of "Lullaby".
"Sleep, sleep, my dear darling,
Daddy's hands gently shake you.
Sleep, sleep, my dear darling,
Daddy's hands gently shake you.
The cradle rocks you to sleep quickly,
Sleep, sleep, be warm. β
"Sister, cheer up!" Yu Luying saw that Shen Jie was already a little confused, her sleepy eyes were relaxed, and she even staggered when she walked, so she hurriedly reminded.
"Is it true that people can only go out from where they come in?" Shi Hui guessed.
"That means you can only go out of Shen Jie's room? Isn't that a self-defeating trap? Isn't that back to square one? Allah it all for nothing? The bear became anxious.
"No, it won't be like this, the first time, the first time, we didn't come out of the entrance." Xiao Yao looked at Yu Luying and Xiong Ji and emphasized affirmatively.
"But that time, we defeated the master of the palace...... Shen Jie muttered.
Xiong Ji frowned: "Do you have to lift this Leifeng Pagoda and pull out the old bald donkey on it to beat Shen Jie away?" In the current situation, it is difficult to achieve. β
"Xiong Ji, don't talk nonsense!" Yu Bo saw that Shi Hui and Shen Jie's faces changed, and hurriedly stopped Xiao Xiong from running the train with his mouth full.
Then, he discussed with Xiao Yao: "In such a situation, we can't stay in the Shadow World Hall all the time, let alone leave Xiao Shen here alone, I'm afraid the expedient measure is to return Shen Jie first." β
Xiao Yao lowered his head and was silent, and everyone shook their heads helplessly and sighed.
That's really it...... Done in vain?
Shen Jie nodded and said calmly: "My life, I admit it." Thank you very much, please count the supper, I invite you to the guest house. β
The crowd was divided again.
A voice suddenly came from not far away: "No...... It won't be that way. β
"Mr. Yao, why did you come in too!" Yu Bo said with some surprise, and everyone was also taken aback.
"Ugh." The bear turned his face a little awkwardly.
The tall and burly Teacher Yao was dressed a little like a fat tiger today, he looked at Shen Jie, and said a little awkwardly: "If you really come in and out from where, your father, the palace, and the master must know." β
"Didn't poke!" Xiao Yao answered: "If he knows that you can't escape, why do you want to arrest you in a big way?" It's up to you to play, and you have to go back to the end anyway. β
Yu Luying also analyzed: "So in Shen Jie's father's cognition, Shen Jie can run away, so he has to stop it?" β
"No poke," Xiao Yao then added, "Moreover, as Shen Jie went down, the pursuit became more intense, until the most difficult big fly was finally released." β
Teacher Yao bared his tongue and said word by word: "This shows that in Shen's father's cognition, the further Shen Jie goes, the greater the escape, and the greater the pursuit." β
"So, Shen Jie's exit is that there will be no mistake here!" Xiao Yao drew his sword and slashed heavily at the mirror, but the blade only passed through a piece of nothingness.
"But, Shen Jie actually can't get out, what's the use of saying this?" Little Bear looked helpless.
"I think it may be so," Yu Bo tried to analyze: "The temple is a cognitive world, and our cognition affects everything related to us, and these cognitions may be the surface consciousness or the subconscious. It was the monster that flew just now, we thought it was a fly, but Shen Jie thought it was a bee. β
Xiao Yao said: "She's just short-sighted, right?" β
Shen Jie: "......"
"In short," Yu Bo continued, "since cognition affects our interaction with the world, Shen Jie's inability to go out may also stem from the influence of her own cognition, just like her different judgments about monsters. β
"Impossible." Shen Jie opened her mouth to object.
"What? What do you mean? Xiao Yao was a little confused.
"What my brother Bo means is that Shen Jie can't go out, maybe because she doesn't want to go out." Takefish helps with reading comprehension translation.
"How is that possible? Shen Jie has long been in that cage enough, she would rather break off with her father than regain her freedom, you say yes, Shen Jie? Xiao Yao was a little anxious.
"Impossible." Shen Jie opened her mouth again and repeated these three words, and she didn't know which question she was answering "impossible".
"What else can she do if you ask her that here?" Shi Hui stopped Xiao Yao's gaffe.
Yu Bo explained: "Our subconscious thoughts may not even be aware of the conscious mind, and will only be manifested at the real moment, I know you are in a hurry, but don't be in a hurry first." β
Shen Jie: "......"
Yu Bo continued: "Shen Jie, although we are here to take you out, it doesn't mean that we are all here, we must take you away, this is your life, only you have the right to choose." β
Shen Jie said a little impatiently: "Father Yu, I've already said it twice, your guess is not rightβI want to go out myself." β
After saying this, she felt that she was not polite enough to Yu Bo's tone, and she forced out a sweet smile.
Teacher Yao stepped forward and bit Yu Bo's ear for a while.
"I'll ask you a few questions, and you don't have to answer them." Yu Bo said gently.
Shen Jie nodded lightly.
Yu Bo pondered his words: "Regarding your father's engagement to you and so on, did your father sit down and talk to you seriously about his thoughts?" β
Shen Jie thought about it seriously, and then shook her head a little dazedly.
Yu Bo continued, "The last time you ran away from home and came home, did you sit down with your father and talk seriously about your thoughts? β
Shen Jie didn't think about it this time, and directly shook her head again.
Teacher Yao looked like he couldn't speak clearly, and muttered to Yu Bo for a long time, but the latter sighed lightly and pulled Xiao Yao aside: "She is a very typical one-child family parent-child relationship. An only child usually has a thought stamp in his or her head, that is, no matter what, the parents love them, and no matter what, this is their own home. If this kind of ideological steel seal does not experience major life twists and turns, it is possible that it will not be broken for the rest of its life. But based on Ms. Yao's experience as an educator, this judgment is often wrong β and I myself hold this view. β
"Who is not an only child these days - I think she just lacks positive communication with her father, and she can't get along with what you say." Xiao Yao said.
"Then let's talk head-on. You come and talk to her, we give you space. Yu Bo said.
Everyone scattered in twos and threes to the side, and Xiao Yao came to Shen Jie's side.
"Hey," Xiao Yao pretended to smile at her lightly, "I finally have the opportunity to be alone again." β
"I ...... I'm causing you a problem. Shen Jie said with some uneasiness.
"It's okay, I'm the one who owes you a favor, and the favor I owe you may never be repaid." Xiao Yao comforted Shen Jie.
"You're welcome." Shen Jie said with a smile.
"Do you want to see your father?" Xiao Yao suddenly asked unexpectedly.
"But ......," Shen Jie hesitated.
"I don't need to, but, what to do and whatever, those are my business," Xiao Yao interrupted Shen Jie's words, "What you have to do is to face your true heart - do you want to go to your father and talk to him about your heart?" β
Shen Jie was silent for a long time, lowered her head and replied in a low voice, "Yes." β
β¦β¦
After a while, outside the skyscraper door, where there was no trace of chaos or fighting, there was a queue of outsiders waiting to enter the exam.
But there was a man and a woman who didn't line up and had to enter the door directly.
"You can only enter the door if you pass the exam!" The doorman was still scolding to teach the newcomers the rules.
The man wearing a suit of armor who walked in front replied to him in a more arrogant tone: "I'm here to receive the reward, I caught Shen Jie, alive." With that, he raised his hand and showed off his "loot".
The armored man held one end of a rope in his hand, and the other end of the rope was the girl's bound hands.
The two guards exchanged hesitant glances.
A moment later, Xiao Yao and Shen Jie were standing in the elevator leading to the 127th floor, and in front of them, there were two tall sword-wielding guards standing in front of themβtheir presence made the elevator that should have been very spacious seem a little crowded.
This trick of "princess offering her head" was initially blocked by some bureaucracy, and it was not until a steward came down to speak that the matter was completed.
The man in charge was a humanoid with a bright silver body...... Well, the mechanical creature, similar to the T1000 in Terminator, can only be seen from the demeanor that it seems to be a woman, Xiao Yao always feels as if he has seen "her" somewhere, but he doesn't have time to think about it.
This trip is rounded up to see my father-in-law - although it's not the first fucking time, but I still have to think about how to deal with it.
"Or," Xiao Yao said, "I'll go down first and buy two cigarettes and two bottles of wine...... Hairy feet come to the door. β
The two guards and Shen Jie both had tense faces, and no one was birding him.
Really, isn't it good to liven up the atmosphere......
In this place, the rise in class seems to be a big deal, so, this elevator may be going very slowly out of the need for a sense of ceremony.
When he reached the 88th floor, Xiao Yao's eyes saw that the two guards who had been silent seemed to be making eye contact.
This made him feel an inexplicable sense of danger, and he hurriedly retracted his thoughts.
It's already a bit late.
"Be careful!" Shen Jie screamed in surprise.
At this moment, the two guards had already swung their swords at Xiao Yao at the same time.
Although Xiao Yao did not withdraw his arms and had the consciousness to fight, he never expected that it would be these two guys, and they would be in this kind of place.
The attack of these two guards had no scruples, and Shen Jie in the elevator could not be used, Xiao Yao struggled to resist, but he had to take care of Shen Jie, as a result, when the elevator reached the 126th floor, the two had been suppressed in the corner, just waiting for the other party's hand to fall......
What a joke!
Even if it's the "Lord of the Flies" Bel Zebu, I can fight him back and forth, why did I die at the hands of you two little people?
At this critical moment.
Xiao Yao heard a loud sound of metal impact, and saw a big sword slash horizontally through the upper quarter of the elevator car, flying up in addition to half of the elevator, as well as the heads of two attackers.
The rest of the elevator continued to go up as if nothing had happened.
Then, with a crisp "ding" bell, the elevator door opened, and a tall man stood outside the door.
"Thank you for using the Bright Elevator, Bright Eagle, Brute Spirit." A mechanical electronic female voice came from the half-section of the elevator car.
Xiao Yao: "? β
The young man could recognize at a glance that the tall man standing outside the elevator door was Shen Hongsheng...... The shadow?
However, he couldn't smell the shadow at all on his body, but was much more handsome and younger than him in the main world - Xiao Yao felt that it was like Shen Tianyun's mobile phone was on his face and skin.
Shen Hongsheng's image shows a completely different dual temperament: he wears an elegant black suit, which is cut and fitted, showing his tall and majestic figure, and the design of the suit is simple and elegant, showing his maturity and calmness.
Surprisingly, however, he was also covered with an armor.
The surface of this armor emits a faint glow, reflecting the heat of battle.
The armor is made of solid metal, and all parts are decorated with elaborate ornaments and reliefs, showing the dignity and authority of the king.
In addition to this, Shen Hongsheng also wore a black burqa cloak, which added a touch of mystery to him - the burqa cloak was embroidered with intricate runes and textures, exuding an ancient and powerful aura. The hem of the cloak flutters in the wind, like a flowing black waterfall, making his image more majestic and enchanting.
As mentioned earlier, the face of this "Shen Hongsheng" is young and handsome, and the handsome outline lines are clearly visible. His eyes shone with determination and wisdom, showing his decisiveness, grace and intelligence as a "king". Although his outfit has an antique style of the Middle Ages, he exudes a temperament that is a perfect combination of modernity and tradition.
This tall man, the shadow of Shen Hongsheng, with his unique image of a combative medieval king, shows a contradictory and charming aura - is this himself in Shen Hongsheng's mind? It's too smelly and beautiful, Xiao Yao thought a little teasingly.
"Future father-in-law," the boy beckoned without condescension, "thank you for your help again." β
Shen Hongsheng ignored Xiao Yao at all, as if he didn't exist, he directly stretched out his hand to Shen Jie, lovingly helped her up, threw herself on her shoulder, and kissed her neck passionately.
Shen Jie was a little embarrassed and wanted to dodge or push Shen Hongsheng away, but she couldn't succeed.
"I knew that my baby couldn't bear Daddy." Shen Hongsheng said to himself, took off his black cloak, wrapped it around the girl's body, and then turned his head and said to his servant: "Take out the best robe and put it on her, put the ring on her hand, put shoes on her feet, and bring the fat calf to slaughter, and we should eat, drink, and feast, for my daughter has risen from the dead, and has been lost and regained." β
Xiao Yao tilted his head and thought about it for a while, he always felt that this line was a certain passage in the Bible, he had learned it in Yu Bo's class before, what was the theme called...... "The Prodigal Son Turns Back"?
The boy looked around and saw that it was a luxurious but empty hall, and the only thing other than the elevator was a golden throne perched high on a stone staircase.
He noticed that the king did not seem to be planning to deal with him, so he teased: "I thought that the bishop and queen of the soldiers and horses were loyal to the king. β
"Come on, come on, let's talk while drinking." The king once again ignored Xiao Yao's presence, and walked towards the golden throne with his daughter in his arms.
Shen Jie walked forward while being carried forward by Shen Hongsheng's shadow, and at the same time looked back at Xiao Yao and cast a look of help at him. (End of chapter)
