Chapter 60: Man-Eating Monsters (9)
Chu Qize still clearly remembered the last words that Yun'er said to him before disappearing-
"Am I not Aze's sweetheart......?"
In Chu Qize's opinion, his sweetheart will only stay in his heart forever, and he will not appear in front of him at all.
Because, he is just a Taoist priest - a Taoist priest who has left his love roots and broken taboos.
"Illusion?" Fu Chu repeated Chu Qize Fangcai's words in confusion.
"There are two kinds of people in this world, the first is us, the shadow. Chu Qize paused slightly, and then continued to explain: "The second type is an illusion - the person who is rooted in our hearts and wants to see the most. ”
Chu Qize said that, and walked towards the front leisurely, ready to walk out of this alley.
"Because people have attachments, they have illusions. Chu Qize explained indifferently as he walked.
Fu Chu and Chu Duan saw Chu Qize walking forward slowly, so they obediently followed behind him.
"So...... The master that Fu Chu saw was also an illusion?" Chu Duan followed Chu Qize's train of thought and asked.
"Hmm. ”
After finishing speaking, Chu Duan didn't say anything more, he looked thoughtfully at the crowd of people coming and going in front of him, as if he understood something......
When he asked the people in the town if they had any family of their own, they all replied yes......
But in fact, the "family of their own" they say is just their own illusion, but in this world, all illusions will exist in their lives like a normal person.
And Fuchu seems to be aware of this.
After the air slowly fell into silence, Fu Chu seemed to remember something, she raised her eyes, and her gaze fell straight on Chu Duan's body.
She seemed to want to ask something, but when the words reached her throat, she swallowed them hard.
Chu Duan naturally noticed Fu Chu's actions, and after he noticed Fu Chu's gaze, he also lowered his eyes.
After staring at each other, the two of them were quiet for a moment, and Fu Chu looked away in a panic.
"What do you want to say?" Chu Duan asked curiously.
"I didn't ...... No. ”
Fu Chu said that, and Chu Duan didn't ask any further.
The air slowly fell into an indescribable silence, and several people walked slowly, and no one spoke, so that the surrounding atmosphere slowly became subtle.
"Then how are we supposed to escape?" Finally, Fu Chu couldn't help but open his mouth to break the silence.
However, just as Chu Duan was about to say something, the child's laughter came into their ears again—a familiar and clear laughter that added a bit of vitality to the entire Pingle Town.
"Ah Le—Ah Le, you wait for us!" the children's voices drew closer and closer, drawing Fu Chu's attention to him.
"You can't catch me!" Ah Le ran towards his front excitedly, and looked back at his friends from time to time.
"Bang-" A muffled sound came into Fuchu's ears again.
Immediately afterwards, a gentle impact fell on Fu Chu's leg - the child named Ah Le seemed to have accidentally bumped into it again.
Fu Chu subconsciously bent down and held Ah Le's shoulders with both hands.
Fu Chu's gaze subconsciously moved downwards and inadvertently landed at Ah Le's feet.
In the next second, Fu Chu's heart couldn't help but tighten—Ah Le had no shadow.
Fu Chu's gaze lingered on Ah Le's body for a few seconds, and then moved to her companions like a ghost.
Immediately after, the surprise in her eyes became a little thicker - Ah Le's friends also had no shadows.
They're all illusions?!
Thinking about it, Fu Chu couldn't help but turn her head and glanced at Chu Duan, she didn't say anything, but the look in her eyes was like saying-Did you see it?
Fu Chu looked at Chu Duan for a while, and couldn't help but move his gaze to Ah Le.
Fu Chu looked at Ah Le like this, his eyes couldn't help but climb a little incredible, and his fingertips trembled slightly, as if he thought of something.
"Sister, ......?" Ah Le saw that Fu Chu had been supporting him, and he didn't let go for a long time, so he called Fu Chu tentatively.
After finishing speaking, Fu Chu's thoughts seemed to be pulled back suddenly. She came back to her senses abruptly, and then took her hand back: "I'm sorry......"
Fu Chu smiled at Ah Le in a sneer.
After Fu Chu said that, the smile on Ah Le's face brightened again: "The person who should say I'm sorry is me-it was I who accidentally bumped into my sister." ”
After finishing speaking, Ah Le subconsciously took two steps back.
Ah Le raised his head slightly, and unconsciously glanced at the two people beside Fu Chu. When Ah Le's gaze fell on Chu Duan, she couldn't help but tilt her head sideways, and a doubt rose in her eyes: "Big brother - have I seen you?"
Chu Duan's gaze stayed on Ah Le's body, he opened his mouth slightly, and just as he was about to speak, the friends behind Ah Le opened their mouths and urged: "Ah Le-what are you still doing in a daze? Come and play!"
After the voice fell, Ah Le withdrew the curiosity in his eyes, and then took two steps back: "My friends are calling me, I'll go first!"
After Ah Le finished speaking, he seemed to have completely forgotten the doubts just now, turned around and ran towards his little friend.
......
After they returned to the inn, Qi Chi in the bracelet seemed to be unable to stay. After the bracelet trembled slightly, a few wisps of purple light spread along the bracelet, and it didn't take long for Qi Chi to come out of the bracelet.
"That girl—" Qi Chi glanced at Fu Chu and them, as if he had discovered something terrible, "Don't you think that girl is very strange?"
"......?" Qi Chi said this, which aroused the curiosity in Fuchu's heart.
"Didn't you notice? We've only seen a few children in this town since we got to this town—"
After finishing speaking, Fu Chu's heart tightened: "How long have we been in this town?"
After finishing speaking, Fu Chu's face involuntarily skipped a trace of panic - if she remembered correctly, most of the people in this town didn't know how long they had lived here and where they had come from......
And she's starting to forget how long she's been in town......
Thinking of this, Fu Chu's fingertips trembled slightly, and she subconsciously began to recall where she came from, however, just as Fu Chu began to recall, she found those memories that existed in her mind...... It's blurry......
