Zheng Lei smiled softly in his heart, this little girl had already been carried away by her own words, and she was one step closer to the goal.

"She was walking with me for a while, and after walking for a while, I came to the side of the mountain, and when I saw that this was not our mountain, I asked her, 'Big sister, where are you going?' She turned to look at me, smiled for a while, and said, 'Aren't you going to find someone? ’”

Speaking of this, Zheng Lei looked at Hu Xiaowan's expression, which seemed to be a little abnormal, and continued, "I thought to myself, I have to find you anyway, so I followed her and continued to walk, we walked for a long time, I thought she was lying to me, and finally she took me to a cave." ”

Zheng Lei looked at Hu Xiaowan and seemed to be thinking about something. Unable to hear the next words, Hu Xiaowan raised her head and asked, "Then what?"

"It was so dark in the cave that I couldn't see anything, but she seemed to be very familiar, and I was a little suspicious, so I asked her, 'Where are you taking me?' and she said, 'The man you are looking for is here, and you will know when you arrive.'" Zheng Lei paused, looked at Hu Xiaowan's expression, seemed to remember something, but as if he couldn't catch it, he raised his head and said anxiously: "Then what?"

Then I went on with her until I went to the very back of the cave, where there was a lot of stuff and a mess, but when I looked around and didn't see you, I asked her, 'Where is this?' and she said, 'It's strange to come and see this painting.' I wondered in my heart, I came to find someone, not to see the painting, why did you let me look at the painting? But she kept insisting that I go and see the painting, and I couldn't resist it, so I came to the front of the painting. ”

When she said this, Hu Xiaowan's breathing was already a little short, her brows were slightly furrowed, her eyes were closed, and she shook her head from time to time, as if she wanted to straighten out the chaotic memory.

Zheng Lei saw that it had an effect, and then said: "I looked at the painting, and I didn't see anything strange, she said: 'You reach out and touch it.'" I reached out and touched it, and I was sucked into the words at once......

"Ah......h

Zheng Lei hurriedly hugged Hu Xiaowan and said in her ear: "Xiaowan, wake up quickly, my brother is here to pick you up, let's go home together!"

Hu Xiaowan shrank in Zheng Lei's arms, and had not yet woken up from the shock of the reorganization of memories.

After a long time, Hu Xiaowan slowly opened her eyes, looked up at Zheng Lei's eyes and asked, "Brother." ”

"Well, Xiaowan, you're finally awake. ”

"Is it true?"

Zheng Lei knew what Hu Xiaowan was referring to that things that suddenly appeared in her memory, closed her eyes lightly and nodded, and said gently: "Xiaowan, go back with me." ”

Hu Xiaowan looked at Zheng Lei's face, and only said softly after a while: "Brother, accompany me in a few days before leaving, I'm afraid that I won't be able to come back." ”

Zheng Lei looked at Hu Xiaowan, Chu Chu's moving face, no matter when he saw it, it was pitiful, he hugged her gently, and said slowly: "Okay, then brother will stay with you for a while, but you remember, after we leave here, you are still my Xiaowan, I will not allow you to disappear into my world, I have the ability to protect you!"

Hu Xiaowan hugged Zheng Lei tightly and stopped talking, just snuggled her head into his arms, feeling the tenderness that seemed to be true and false.

Zheng Lei raised his head and looked, even in the cave, there were those golden points of light above his head, and they were slowly fading, he knew that these golden points could only be seen by himself, and Hu Xiaowan could not see them.

Unless Hu Xiaowan completely unties the knot in her heart and lets go of the resistance to that memory in her heart, she will truly return to the real world.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye, these seven days, Hu Xiaowan and Zheng Lei have been sitting in the cave with each other, the two have never said a word, no matter who they are, they are afraid that this time is really a parting.

Zheng Lei looked up at the top of his head, there were only the last two golden points of light left, he patted Xiao Wan lightly, and said, "Xiao Wan, we should go back!"

"Brother, I can't bear it. ”

"No, if you don't go back, you'll never go back, promise me, I'll protect you." ”

"Well, brother, I believe in you. Hu Xiaowan gently closed her eyes and slowly let go of the shackles in her heart.

The world collapsed little by little with Hu Xiaowan's heart.

Zheng Lei suddenly opened his eyes and saw the master sitting opposite him, so he quickly got up and asked, "Master, how is it?"

Tian Chengyang turned his head to look at it and said, "Just wait for you to bring her back, if it is a little later, she will be completely helpless." ”

Zheng Lei let out an embarrassed "um", turned his head to look at Hu Xiaowan, and saw that Hu Xiaowan's face had regained its former vitality, lying quietly on the ground, as if asleep.

Lin Xi sat with his back to Zheng Lei, motionless, like a statue.

"Uncle Shi, thank you. Zheng Lei said from the bottom of his heart.

Lin Xi didn't speak, stretched out a hand and gently pointed at Hu Xiaowan.

Zheng Lei understood, came to Hu Xiaowan's side, gently helped her up, and shouted softly: "Xiaowan, wake up, wake up and see my brother." ”

After screaming seven or eight times in a row, Hu Xiaowan's eyes struggled to open, and when she saw Zheng Lei, she hugged her tightly all of a sudden, and kept saying: "Brother, it's all Xiaowan who is not good!"

Zheng Lei gently stroked Hu Xiaowan's head, and said again and again: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back......"

Suddenly, Zheng Lei found that Lin Xi was a little strange, and when he looked closely, he found that Lin Xi's arm had changed, originally Lin Xi's skin was smooth and firm, even if it looked, it felt elastic, but now he found that Lin Xi's hand was a little withered, and the whole hand was dull.

"Uncle Shi, what's wrong with you?" asked Zheng Lei worriedly.

Lin Xi shook his head slowly, still not speaking.

Zheng Lei looked at Hu Xiaowan and then at Lin Xi, and immediately understood the reason, helped Hu Xiaowan to the side, and said softly to Hu Xiaowan: "Xiaowan, you lie down and rest for a while, and I'll go and say a few words to my uncle." ”

Hu Xiaowan nodded obediently, but her hands were still holding Zheng Lei's clothes tightly, for fear that he would fly.

Zheng Lei patted her head lightly and said, "Don't be afraid, my brother will never leave again." ”

Hu Xiaowan blinked, still refusing to let go, Zheng Lei smiled slightly, stretched out the little finger of his right hand, and said, "Come, pull the hook, my brother will never leave you again." ”

After coaxing for a while, Hu Xiaowan reluctantly loosened Zheng Lei's clothes.

Zheng Lei walked behind Lin Xi in a few steps, and suddenly heard Lin Xi say, "Stop! He stopped and looked at Lin Xi's back with some astonishment, Lin Xi's words even sounded a little old.

"Uncle Shi, what's wrong with you?"

"It's not about you, if it's okay, don't bother me. Lin Xi said slowly, her voice once again made Zheng Lei confirm his judgment.

Zheng Lei sat behind Lin Xi and said softly: "Cousin, tell me honestly, did you give Xiao Wan your own vitality?"

Lin Xi was silent for a while, and then said, "Does this have anything to do with you? If it's okay, think about how to get out of here." ”

Lin Xi's silence made Zheng Lei finally confirm the guess in his heart, and sure enough, Lin Xi used that kind of almost life-for-life method to wake up Xiaowan.

Zheng Lei's heart is very complicated, this royal sister and uncle, every time she looks so confident, although she looks very greedy for money, but every time she has a big thing, she has this uncle to help settle it together, this time, she used her own vitality to save Hu Xiaowan.

This immeasurable kindness, Zheng Lei doesn't know when he will be able to pay it back.

"Cousin, why are you doing this?"

After a long time, Zheng Lei saw that Lin Xi didn't speak, got up and flashed in front of Lin Xi.

Lin Xi hurriedly lowered her head, her long hair covered her face, but despite this, she still pinned her face to the side.

Zheng Lei squatted down, held Lin Xi's shoulder, and said, "Cousin, you raise your head and look at me!"

Lin Xi shook his head weakly.

Zheng Lei stretched out his hand to pull away her hair, but she reached out to block it, so he had to give up looking at her now.

Tian Chengyang, who was on the side, saw the scene of the two, sighed, shook his head, and turned around and walked into the distance.

Zheng Lei straightened Lin Xi's body again, and said softly: "Cousin, I know that you look like an old woman now, I know you don't want me to see you like this, but cousin, have you ever thought about you, can I rest assured? I, Zheng Lei, am not a heartless person, you have become like this for me, will I dislike your old face because of this?"

Lin Xi raised his head slightly, and said through his hair: "Are you finished?

Zheng Lei was stunned for a moment, looked at Lin Xi and said, "Cousin, you won't be like this forever, I will definitely find a way to help you return to your original state!"

Lin Xi was silent for a while, seemed to snort a little, shook his head, and said softly: "No need, I have my own way, you can find a way to get out of here first." ”

Zheng Lei had no doubt about Lin Xi's words, and when he saw her say this, he had to let go of her hand, called the master, and helped Lin Xi up, and then he himself held up Hu Xiaowan with one hand, and took out the half of the scroll with the other.

The four of them looked around, there were a variety of objects, and they were all over the place, Zheng Lei breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had finally returned to the real world.

Lin Xi's figure seemed to be a little rickety, and with Tian Chengyang's support, he still insisted on standing, Zheng Lei looked at the other three, glanced at Tian Chengyang, and said, "Master, let's get out of here first." ”

Tian Chengyang nodded, helped Lin Xi to go first, and Zheng Lei also hugged Hu Xiaowan and followed.

On the way out, Zheng Lei saw some blood stains on the ground, he thought about it, it was estimated that it was left by Liu Mei, this Liu Mei, I don't know what the reason, was able to escape from that picture, Zheng Lei has not been able to figure it out in his heart.

But without the threat of Liu Mei, they didn't encounter anything else along the way.

When they walked out of the cave, it was evening, the sky was a little dark, the four of them walked for a while, and finally came to the road, and the people who came down the mountain looked at the two men each holding a woman, and they all looked at the two women with that kind of sympathetic gaze, and the eyes were clearly sorry for the two women.

Lin Xi can't drive now, and Zheng Lei doesn't have a driver's license so far, let alone Hu Xiaowan, so the heavy responsibility of driving can only fall on Tian Chengyang's head.

Tian Chengyang didn't shirk it, put Lin Xi behind, opened the door of the cab and sat in.

Zheng Lei hugged Hu Xiaowan and got into the car, sitting in the middle of the women, supporting one on each side. As soon as he sat down, the SUV roared angrily and rushed out like a rocket, kicking up a cloud of dust behind it.

"Wow, master, why are you so violent?" said Zheng Lei, pulling the two women tightly.

Tian Chengyang ignored Zheng Lei and drove the off-road vehicle away from the Lishan Scenic Area at high speed.

After coming out of the Lishan Scenic Area, it didn't take long for them to return to the city. The four of them did not delay and directly found a hotel to stay.

Originally, the four of them were going to open four rooms, but Hu Xiaowan said that she should not be separated from Zheng Lei, and Lin Xi couldn't sleep in one room with Tian Chengyang, so she had to open three rooms.

After such a long time, everyone carries a deep exhaustion.

After everything settled, Zheng Lei looked at the calendar in the hotel, and more than a month had passed.

Letting go of the surprise in his heart, Zheng Lei sat on the bed, took out the half of the scroll, opened it gently, and looked at it carefully.

Hu Xiaowan sat beside Zheng Lei with some trepidation, obviously the little fox had a psychological shadow on this picture scroll.

Zheng Lei smiled slightly and said, "Don't be afraid, now that this painting belongs to my brother, you will never be accepted again." ”

Hu Xiaowan nodded, still holding Zheng Lei's arm uneasily.

Zheng Lei smiled slightly, let her haunt him, and then sank his mind into the scroll, he remembered that there was another person in the scroll, and it was a man.

After a while, Zheng Lei opened his eyes, smiled, and said, "I didn't expect it to be him, it can be regarded as retribution!"

Hu Xiaowan lay down gently, resting her head on Zheng Lei's lap, staring at Zheng Lei with a pair of big eyes, and between her eyes and Zheng Lei at this moment, it happened to be the half of the painting.

Suddenly, Hu Xiaowan said in surprise: "Brother, look at the back of this painting." ”

Zheng Lei flipped the painting over, and saw that there seemed to be some water stains on the scroll, Hu Xiaowan also propped up her arms and looked at the back of the scroll with Zheng Lei.

The water stains are very light, Zheng Lei looked at it for a while, but he couldn't see the reason, and said suspiciously: "This painting is also a holy relic, how can it be soaked in water?"

"No, brother, look, this seems to be another painting. ”

Zheng Lei followed Hu Xiaowan's fingers, looked at them for a while, and found that these were not water stains at all, but a very shallow painting, but it looked like water stains.

And the painting on the back is completely different from the front one.
