Chapter 1: The Regression
The blazing dragon flame burned on the icy lake, the convoy stopped not far away, the bright headlights shot far away, and at the end of the light, a boy loomed, kneeling on the ice, his eyes glazed.
A woman who has been shot in the body lies in a pool of blood, and the group of Cerberus that smells blood bites each other and fights for the chance to eat her.
"No, don't, don't ...... like this" Lu Mingfei's voice was hoarse, and his eyes were helpless and sad.
He struggled to crawl towards his mother, Giovanni, but his almost broken legs dragged behind him, and his weak arms slid in vain on the ice, like a beginner swimmer practicing swimming on the ice, funny and ridiculous.
Lu Mingfei trembled and lowered his head, as if he didn't want to look any further, his forehead was pressed against the ice, and the biting cold seeped into his body, flowed into his empty heart, and gradually spread all over his body.
In the end, even if he became the so-called chairman of the road, he still couldn't do anything, he could only watch everything he had leave him.
"Lu Mingfei? Hello. ”
The surroundings suddenly fell silent, and a clear voice came into Lu Mingfei's ears.
Lu Mingfei raised his head slowly, a young man in black stood in front of him, everything around him was frozen, even the flying snowflakes stopped in the air.
"Lu Mingze?" Lu Mingfei said hoarsely, "Are you here to trade?" ”
"Yes, save my mother."
Although I don't understand why Lu Mingze wants to change his appearance, these are no longer important to Lu Mingfei.
"I'm not Lu Mingze." The young man in black chuckled and shook his head.
"But the deal...... "The young man in black has a strange look in his eyes, "It's okay, but the content of the exchange will be changed." ”
The young man in black said softly, "Do you want to save those who have died?" I can help you as long as you agree to the deal. ”
"I will travel back in time and descend on your body to rewrite all the stories for you."
"And the price ......," the black-clothed young man said in a quiet tone, "You will be completely replaced, the newborn Lu Mingfei, lonely, strong, erudite, and delicate." ”
"No one will know that there was once such a Lu Mingfei as you."
"In their eyes, Lu Mingfei prefers foie gras and red wine to fried chicken and cola, can talk to people in literature, will not indulge in the Internet in Internet cafes, and will not sit in the corner in a daze every day."
"Of course, I don't like unfair deals, your mother is not dead, she would have survived without me, just as a living dead."
"So you can not swap, as long as you are willing to give up those guys who are a thing of the past."
"So...... Swap? The young man in black smiled and stretched out his hand.
"Proof of it."
Lu Mingfei lowered his eyebrows, making people unable to see clearly.
"Do you need it?" The young man in black asked.
Lu Mingfei smiled silently.
Even if Lu Mingze came to deceive himself, it didn't matter, at least he would fulfill his promise, although he didn't know where he got his confidence.
That's great, everyone will be happy, but no one remembers themselves, but what is there to remember about themselves?
Lu Mingfei glanced at his mother lying on the ice with complicated eyes, reluctance, regret, sadness, and tenderness were all mixed in it, but there was an emotion overflowing, almost condensed into substance, and surrounded Lu Mingfei.
That's gratitude.
Thank you Mom for letting me know that there are people in this world who are willing to love me, and who are still willing to love me even when they know what kind of rotten person I am.
I'm just sorry, I really don't have the ability to protect you, let someone else love you for me......
Lu Mingfei withdrew his gaze, his eyes were firm, and he slowly stretched out his hand towards the young man in black and held the other party tightly.
The young man in black suddenly smiled, and said with a gentle smile: "I'm sorry, I made a bet with your friend, and now she has won the bet." ”
"As an apology for cheating on you, and as a punishment for losing, I'll give you a few gifts, the first one is to send you back to the past."
With a slight pull, Lu Mingfei's whole body flew up, crossed the black-clothed youth, and crashed straight into the aperture behind him.
February 7, 2009.
In the dead of night, Lu Mingfei slowly opened his eyes, the familiar and unfamiliar ceiling came into view, he sat up, looked around and took in the situation in the room, this was his and his cousin Lu Mingze's bedroom.
Everything was familiar, the gray notebook was placed on the table, and the sheets underneath were indeed the same old sheets, and the butterfly-patterned curtains covered the window.
"It's really back...... Is it? ”
He gently rolled over and got out of bed, without waking Lu Mingze, who was sleeping soundly on the bed next door.
Lu Mingfei put on his clothes and went out, walked all the way up the corridor, and came to the corridor leading to the rooftop, where no one had come a long time ago, and it was covered with dust and debris.
At a glance, there was a coffee table, three stools, a rotten bicycle from Lu Mingze's past, some worn cardboard boxes and basins.
Lu Mingfei stepped on the gap of debris a little rustily to the iron door, and came to the rooftop through the gap in the slightly rusty iron door.
It had just rained lightly, so there was still a little water on the ground, and there was a smell of rain in the air.
Lu Mingfei quietly looked at the vehicles flowing like flowing water on the viaduct in the distance, everything was the same as in his memory, even the faint smell of rust on the iron door was so familiar, and it was not until this moment that his heart that had been slightly hanging did not really let go.
"It's really back."
Lu Mingfei was stunned, and the pictures of memories unfolded in his mind.
In the dim water of the Three Gorges, he slowly closed his eyes and sunk towards the old Tang who sank at the bottom of the river.
In BJ's cold subway passage, the little dragon girl who was gently spit out by Fenrir.
Eri who withered and died in the pouring rain of Tokyo's Red Well.
And the Nibelungen, near the North Pole, whose mother was hit by a bullet in the bitter cold and snow.
Lu Mingfei will always gain a trace of warmth and then lose it.
It was as if someone had given a thirsty pedestrian in the desert a bottle of water, only to take it mercilessly when he had just taken a sip, then turned and left immediately, watching him quietly at the limit of his line of sight.
Lu Mingfei closed his eyes slightly, and a quaint ink-colored book swirled in his mind, with four big characters written on it.
"The Encyclopedia of Words and Spirits"
I imagined opening the book, and the words left by the mysterious man poured into my heart.
"This is the second gift, you can use all the words and spirits in it, but with your little physical strength, don't have any invincible dreams."
"By the way, I took the names of some of the spirits, if you have any opinions, you can also choose them yourself."
Lu Mingfei opened his eyes, and the clear golden pupils lit up quietly, if Lu Mingfei couldn't even light up the golden pupils after being reborn, then he could commit suicide.
Lu Mingfei's lips moved slightly, but he said a word silently, and an invisible realm unfolded, and one by one the little guys flew out, bringing back the voices downstairs.
I don't know if yesterday's news was playing on the TV or computer, the couple who were new parents were scrambling to take care of their babies, and the teenagers who were addicted to the Internet hid under the covers and made a dull keyboard tapping sound.
Unlike the Boss's domain, which has a radius of about 100 meters, even if he is chanting dragon scripts in a serious manner, the sickle can only hover within a radius of 20 meters, and if it exceeds this range, the weasel will lose its response.
It's just that if this kind of almost C-level level is at the level, no matter how much words there are, it is useless, Menek can still release Rhine for a moment, and he is afraid that he will faint if he releases a Jun Yan.
Lu Mingfei sighed, and said in his heart that he had to find a way to get that kind of short-term bloodline improvement from his senior brother......
But anyway, I came back.
Under the white moonlight, the young man who was no longer young straightened his back and smiled, which was pure happiness.
