Wandering

Chapter 133 The nameless world began, and the empty valley cried out

The three of us had just walked outside the door when a group of people came out of a large private room at the other end of the corridor.This was obviously a table of diners who had just settled their bills, surrounded by an old man with white hair and a childlike face.I know this old man, he is the old man Gao who once taught me Wu Qinxi in the stadium, and he is also the old secretary Gao Feijin Gao who helped me sell dates in front of the municipal party committee compound.

Mr. Gao also came to Zhiweilou for dinner. I was about to go up to say hello to him, but I was sensitive to find that Ziying's behavior was abnormal.She also saw the group of people, her face turned pale and her lips were trembling.I felt that it wasn't just her lips that were trembling, her whole body was trembling, and her feet couldn't stand still.I found out that Liu Yiyi also found out, and quickly supported her from left to right.I supported her body, Ziying's legs softened, and she leaned softly in my arms, her shoulders were still twitching slightly.

"Ziying, what's the matter with you, are you not feeling well?" I asked worriedly.She looked so strange, this is the behavior of a little girl who has been greatly frightened.But Han Ziying is not a little girl, let alone a person who is at a loss when things happen.

Ziying grabbed my wrist and replied: "It's nothing, maybe I've been too tired for the past few days....Xiaoye, help me to the office to rest for a while....Yiyi, you go back first." She said it's okay , but when talking, the hands are tightly grasped.If it were someone else's wrist, I'm afraid the nails would pierce into the flesh.

I helped her into the office, Liu Yiyi followed behind and said, "Sister Ziying, don't worry, maybe she's sick?"

Ziying walked to the side of the sofa but did not sit down, she still held my hand tightly and leaned against me softly.She said to Yiyi: "I'm not sick, so you don't have to worry about me. You go back first, I have something to say to your elder brother Shi Ye."

Yiyi looked at me and then at her, and I persuaded: "Yiyi, go first, I'll take care of you here, sister Ziying will be fine." Liu Yiyi obediently left first.

I closed the door and advised Ziying to sit down, but Ziying didn't sit down.I had no choice but to sit on the sofa by myself and hold her in my arms, her body was still shaking slightly.She pressed her face against my chest, closed her eyes and said nothing, with a look of horror on her face.Seeing her appearance, I am more sure of my judgment just now. She was frightened, or recalled some terrible past events.

"Ziying, what's wrong with you? Suddenly you look very scared. Did you see someone who scared you?"

Ziying stretched out a hand and hooked my waist: "Yes, I saw someone just now."

"Alone? With your current cultivation, are you afraid of being alone?"

Ziying: "You don't understand, the situation is different! I'm not afraid of him, but I recall a past event when I saw him. That happened 19 years ago.... It's been almost 20 years, I didn't expect..."

"Is it the group of people just now? I still know one of the people in that group, and it's a white-haired old man."

"What? You know him!" Ziying sat up in my arms, holding my shoulders with both hands.

I was taken aback. Why is it that the person Ziying is afraid of is Mr. Gao?This is too coincidental.When I first met Feng Junzi, Feng Junzi pointed me to three masters in the market, the first one was Mr. Gao, and the third one was Han Ziying.Is there any story between these two people?

"His name is Gao Feijin. He was a fighting hero before the liberation of Wucheng, and he was also the first prefectural committee commissioner and senior city official after the founding of the People's Republic of China."

Ziying's hand has not been released yet, her tone is still tense: "After so many years, I finally know his name. Ono, how did you know him? How is his relationship with you? Okay?"

Seeing that her expression softened a little, she no longer trembled uncontrollably like before.I gently grabbed her arm and placed it around my waist, reaching out to wrap her around my chest.It seems that Mr. Gao once left unpleasant memories for Ziying.I wanted to know what was going on, but I told her about my relationship with Mr. Gao first.It started from the meeting in the stadium, including him helping me sell dates with Yang Xiaokang and so on.

As I was talking, I looked at Ziying's face, and suddenly something moved in my heart, and I remembered something.Last year, when Ziying admitted to me for the first time that she was born as a monster, she mentioned a past incident.She said at the time that she was injured by a hunter on Feijin Peak 18 years ago, and that the person who injured her was a very masculine person.It seems that the hunter is probably Mr. Gao.If this is the case, it is really not easy to deal with the enmity between Mr. Gao and Ziying.

I kept looking at Ziying's face, and asked cautiously: "Ziying, I remember you said that you were injured by a hunter in Feijin Peak 19 years ago. Is he the old man Gao?"

It's okay if I don't ask, when I opened my mouth, Ziying nodded vigorously like a little daughter-in-law who has been exhausted by her mother-in-law, tears streaming down her face.She didn't speak, and started to cry in my arms.It's not the first time Ziying cried, every time I held her in my arms, patted her back gently and waited for her to finish crying.Even though he is a monster, it is indeed aggrieved to be hurt by someone for no reason.She cried for a full quarter of an hour before she stopped crying.

"Ziying, don't be sad, the matter is over! Let me ask you, do you hate him, do you want to seek revenge from him?"

Ziying: "At the time, I did have a bit of hatred, but then it faded away. He was a hunter who went hunting in the mountains, and I was the prey in the mountains. It is normal for him to hurt me. I was just afraid. I don't know why. When I saw him, I suddenly remembered The scene back then made my whole body tremble uncontrollably... If it was a stranger, I might really want to teach him a lesson. I didn't expect that he is your elder and treats you so well, so I don't agree with this account Forget it..."

Ziying's words were a bit messy, sometimes she said she hated it, sometimes she said she didn't hate her, she said she wanted to teach old man Gao a lesson, and she said forget it.It can be seen that she is in a mess now.To be honest, I am also in a dilemma. Mr. Gao is nice to me and is a good person. If Ziying really wants to seek revenge from him, I can't just ignore it.He did hurt Ziying back then, and this grievance is really hard to get rid of.

"Ziying, I think it's a bit strange. With your 500 years of practice, how could you be hurt by a hunter?" Not necessarily Ziying's opponent.

Ziying replied on my chest: "Ono, I am a monster. You don't know how to practice monsters. It is different from you practitioners. My practice was not enough 19 years ago. Although I can transform into a human form, it still needs to be spent. Mana. So when I was in the mountains, I still appeared in my original form most of the time. This is when I was the weakest.... Blame myself for not being careful, he is not a normal person... I only reacted when he shot Come here, it's too late. His shot broke my leg. I will never forget the sudden 'bang'."

Hearing that Ziying had broken a leg, even though I knew she was in front of me, my heart still trembled, and I couldn't help but hug her tightly.She asked nervously, "Is your leg okay?"

Ziying: "It's all right now. There were two big scars at the front and back, but after listening to the "Transformation Chapter" of the heavenly book, the scars disappeared, so you didn't see it. Thank you, Mr. Feng, if he doesn't Let me listen to the heavenly scriptures, I really can't be with you like I am now."

"The Transformation Chapter is so magical? Then why can't the scars of the Red Snake Whip disappear?"

Ziying: "That's not an ordinary scar, not to mention that Feng Junzi only memorized half of the 'Transformation Chapter'... I didn't have your golden dragon lock and jade pillar, and I didn't have Ziying clothes to protect me. Let alone the red snake A whip, even the rifle that old Goriot is holding is deadly to me."

"Rifle? I can't stop the close-range shooting of ordinary military rifles."

Ziying's expression became much calmer, and she stretched out her fingers and tapped on my chest: "Idiot, what are you doing to block the bullet with your body? Use the method of imperial objects to hold the bullet! If you can't work hard enough, you can also use the method of imperial objects to hold the bolt. Who can shoot you? I was injured at the time, but I didn’t realize it when the incident happened. After I broke my leg, I lost my mana, and I couldn’t run far.”

"Then how did you escape in the end?"

Ziying: "It's a coincidence that someone rescued me in time."

"Someone saved you, who? Can this person be found? I want to thank him very much."

Ziying: "Even if I find it, I'm afraid I won't recognize it. It's not an adult, it's a baby."

"Baby? A baby saved you from Mr. Gao with a gun?"

Ziying: "It was such a coincidence. After I was injured, I dragged one leg and tried to escape, and the man surnamed Gao chased me along the blood. When he was about to catch me, a big stone in the mountain suddenly passed me. There was a baby crying. He was disturbed by the crying, so he stopped chasing me and got up to find the baby. Later, I hid in the dark and saw him carrying a baby down the mountain."

This incident was really bizarre and thrilling. I was inexplicably relieved when I heard this: "Ziying, don't be afraid anymore, you are fine now. With me here, I won't let anyone hurt you in the future.  … ...You already know who the enemy was. If you can't get out of this, you can come to me. Or one day I will find you a gun, and you can shoot me in the leg, okay? Count me in Return it to you for Mr. Gao.......The enemy knows, and the benefactor is actually easy to find. Didn’t Mr. Gao take that baby away? It must be an abandoned baby thrown in the mountains. Go ask Mr. Gao and you will know that he is now Who is it?"

Ziying: "I won't shoot you, I will bite you with my teeth if I have the chance. I don't intend to take revenge for that kind of revenge. If you can find out who that baby is, tell me, I really want to thank you .”

"Are you still afraid now? Your reaction just now was so strong, it frightened both Yiyi and me!"

Ziying actually nodded her head: "I'm afraid, I'm still very afraid. I'm not afraid of that person surnamed Gao. I just feel cold for some reason and think of many things. If there is no you in this world, I don't know what I would do now." Sample?"

"Cold? Then hold tight. Isn't there me in this world? Don't think too much..." While speaking, I felt Ziying's shoulders tremble slightly again.

That night, I didn't go back to school and stayed in Zhiwei Building.Ziying kept holding me and never let go, so I sat on the sofa all night with her in my arms.In the middle of the night, she curled up on my chest and fell asleep.In her deep sleep, she seemed to be dreaming, murmuring my name.I don't know what happened outside the office, and I don't know when Feng Junzi and Qi Xin left.Fortunately, after Ziying woke up in my arms the next day, her mood had returned to normal, and she was still the gentle and generous Han Ziying.

He comforted Ziying again, and felt relieved when she saw that she was fine.It was early in the morning, and I didn't go back to school directly, but went to Wucheng Stadium.That's where I first met Mr. Gao, where he would punch every morning.Walking on the road, I suddenly remembered an incident more than a year ago——

"It is said that the exotic musk musk deer, a specialty of Wucheng, disappeared 500 years ago, but I saw it 18 years ago..."

"Old Gao, how did you see it? Could it be because of dizziness?"

"Although I am not young now, my eyesight is still good! Back then, my eyesight was even better. That time I carried a five-six-and-a-half automatic to Feijin Peak to hunt, and saw a deer-like animal..."

"That's not right, the deer you saw. There used to be elk living in the Jiulian Mountains, but now they are gone. How do you know that it is not a small elk but a musk deer? Have you ever seen a musk deer?"

"That little animal's fur is so beautiful! How can an elk be so beautiful? There is also the smell. I was standing in the wind. There was a particularly pleasant fragrance in the wind. When I looked up, there was a little animal standing on a rock. The fragrance is emitted from it, which is exactly the same as the legend of Xiangfei Musk."

This conversation was a chat between old man Gao and the old man who was boxing one morning.It happened more than a year ago, and I was there at that time, curiously asked about the legend about the musk deer.Just out of curiosity, I remembered it, and suddenly remembered it today.Unexpectedly, what I overheard accidentally turned out to be a public case between Han Ziying and Gao Feijin.Ziying admitted to me that she was a monster, but she kept refusing to say what changed her.I understand her mind, she hopes that in my mind she is a real person, and not associated with other things.I finally found out today that she is the incarnation of the long-extinct Xiangfei musk deer.

If the musk deer is extinct, it will be extinct, and the dinosaurs will also be extinct. As long as Ziying is still there, it is enough.
