Chapter Twenty-Nine: Understanding
I remembered that Chu Heng had said before that he had waited for me for ten lifetimes, and it would have been at least a thousand years since I saw it, and my gaze was too straightforward to attract Chu Heng's attention.
"Watch me do something?"
"Oh, nothing." I turned my head sideways, and after a while, I quietly looked back, but I didn't want to break into Chu Heng's eyes.
I lowered my head a little embarrassed, in fact, if I wanted to know Chu Heng better, this seemed to be a good opportunity, thinking, I opened my mouth and asked him: "Actually, I want to know how long you have been in this world?" ”
Chu Heng was stunned for a moment, lowered his head, and thought carefully with his fingers against his chin: "I don't remember it very well, it should have been a long time." ”
Is it so long that you even forget about yourself? I approached Chu Heng: "Then do you remember your life?" ”
Chu Heng shook his head: "I don't remember very clearly, I only have an impression of part of my memory, why am I suddenly curious about my things today?" ”
"It's just that I don't know much about you, but you seem to be familiar with me."
I was inexplicably emboldened, walked up to him, and looked at him expectantly: "If you can, can you tell me about what happened to us before?" ”
Chu Heng opened his mouth, but finally closed it, just looking at me with these sadness in his expression.
"I can't tell you that the power behind that memory is not something you can afford now."
I was a little anxious: "So when will I wait until I know those things?" ”
Chu Heng raised his hand and stroked my cheek, and his movements seemed to carry a force that soothed my irritability.
"When the time comes, when the time comes, you will remember that, and of course before that you want to know anything about me, I will tell you."
I nodded as if I didn't understand, and complained, "I don't know when that time will come." ”
I couldn't wait, and I desperately wanted to know what happened to me and Chu Heng ten years ago, but I looked up and saw Chu Heng's appearance, silently swallowed the words, and changed to other topics.
"Do you have something to do at night? I've tried to call you through the red rope a few times, but you haven't responded. ”
"Well, the night is full of gloomy energy, and it is a good time to hunt ghosts, if you have something urgent, blow the bone whistle directly, and I can hear it as soon as possible."
I see, I looked at Chu Heng: "So you have been hunting for the past few nights, so aren't you much stronger than before." ”
"But it's still a lot worse than in its previous heyday." Chu Heng was always very honest in answering my questions.
"I think you're strong now, how good did you have to be in your heyday?"
I thought that Chu Heng could instantly scatter the little ghost that scared me with just a wisp of red silk, and it was a little hard to imagine how powerful he was in his heyday.
Chu Heng curled the corners of his lips, and the words he said were all with a smile: "Now my strength is only about three-tenths of what it used to be." ”
He looked a little smug, was it because of what I just said?
I don't know why, looking at him like this, my heart beat faster, and my mouth is even more exaggerated: "Then when you recover all your strength, won't you be able to kill a large number of ghosts with your eyes." ”
"That's not enough, but it can still be done if you can't make the ghost dare to approach." After Chu Heng finished speaking, he looked at me with a light smile: "Don't you be afraid of me now?" ”
Why did I suddenly mention this stubble again, I remembered myself yesterday, and I was a little embarrassed for some reason: "I'm not afraid." ”
"You'd better be like you are today." Chu Heng got up and walked out: "Don't you still have class today?" I'll send you back. ”
I got up and chased after him, "How did you know I had a class today?" ”
"I read the planner on your desk, remember."
I was a little surprised: "You can actually understand this, sometimes I really feel that you don't feel like a ghost in the past, but now." ”
Remembering his reaction when he saw the phone before, it didn't look like the first time he saw the phone, and he calmly picked up the phone and read the text message Zhou Zhou sent me.
"Since you are in this world, you must take the time to understand everything in this world, and as for your habit of planning, this has never changed."
It seems that I used to have this habit before.
I was taken back to school by Chu Heng again, and this time he conjured up a large handful of banknotes in the palm of his hand before leaving, and stuffed it into my hand: "If you need it, come and ask me again." ”
After saying that, he disappeared.
I was dumbfounded and looked at the stack of banknotes in my hand, this must have been 10,000 yuan, it seems that his antiques have really sold for a lot of money.
But wouldn't it be a little bad for me to keep this money? Hey, let's find a chance to pay him back later.
I put the money away and went back to the dorm to get ready for class.
At the end of class, I looked up and saw Zhou Zhou waiting for me outside the classroom.
Seeing me come out, she pounced directly: "Qiuqiu! It's the May Day holiday in two days, do you have anywhere to go? ”
"For the time being, I plan to go out and get some work and make some money."
Looking at Zhou Zhou's excited appearance, I knew that she must have a plan, and she still wanted to take me along.
Sure enough, Zhou Zhou took my arm and coquettishly said to me: "There are 7 days of long vacation in total, let's go out to play for two days to enjoy the holiday, and it's not too late for you to go out to work in the remaining days." ”
"No, it costs a lot of money to go out." I thought about the pitiful thousands of dollars in my balance, and quickly shook my head.
"It's okay, I've already arranged it, this time I'm going to take you to the ancient alleys of Linshi to play, as for the accommodation, tour guide or something, I've arranged everything, you don't have to prepare anything, as long as someone comes."
Zhou Zhou's family is in business, although she doesn't show off her wealth much on weekdays, but the things she uses and the food and clothing on weekdays are not bad, but even so, I can't take advantage of her.
"No, no, I don't want to go out......"
Zhou Zhou interrupted me: "Oh, I know what you're worried about, don't worry, this time it's the travel company that cooperates with our family, and the travel opportunities provided to me for free, even I don't have to pay a penny, so let's go, and when we graduate, we all have to work, and even if we want to go, we won't have time to go." ”
I listened more and more excitedly, I have been worrying about my expenses since I went to university, let alone the city, and I have not even seen the attractions in the city.
"Okay, that's for you."
Zhou Zhou jumped up directly when he saw me agreeing: "Okay! I was thinking that if you don't agree, I'll tie you up then. ”
When I heard this, I couldn't laugh or cry.
In the afternoon, I went to the student union to submit an application for withdrawal, and Lin Sheng was also there when I submitted the application, he looked haggard and looked at me pitifully.
