Xiao Tianjian shouted hurriedly: "Is there anyone over there? Is he from Earth?" He also used Chinese.
Ming Na has learned simple Chinese, so she can understand a little. I saw a cloud of mist floating on the mirror, and then gradually dispersed, revealing a slender figure. It was vaguely possible to tell that it was a girl. As the fog gradually disappeared, the girl's features became clearer. She had a round face, black hair and black eyes. She was quite delicate, and she looked about sixteen or seventeen years old.
Mingna couldn't help but look at her grandfather and then at the girl. This eldest sister has black hair and black eyes like her grandfather, so she is the same country her grandfather mentioned? Is she hiding in the mirror, or is she locked in
The girl in the mirror said with a surprised look on her face: "How come there is someone? You can also speak Chinese?! Are you also from our world?"
"I am! I am!" Xiao Tianjian was very excited, "Why are you in the mirror? Are you trapped? How can I rescue you?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, then smiled and waved her hands: "No, no, I'm not locked in the mirror. Brother, I beg you, can't you see the clothes I'm wearing? And the environment behind me!"
Xiao Tianjian was stunned and looked carefully. Sure enough, he could see behind the girl. It seemed to be an abandoned room. The furniture was European style and very old. The girl was wearing a T-shirt, jeans, and unique earrings. , also in Korean style.
Huh? earrings? Wasn't her earring taken away by the ship owner
Xiao Tianjian couldn't believe his own inference, suppressed the excitement in his heart and said, "You... went back?"
"That's right, I'm back. I came back through this mirror." The girl also became excited. "It's not easy. I don't even know how I got there by mistake. I was planning to go back to the cave to wait for death. I accidentally cut my hand, and the blood stained the mirror, and I came back. In reality, I was only missing for a long time, and I still had time to go home before my parents found out. It almost scared me to death." I paused. After a pause, she felt a little sad again: "But I have a classmate who went there with me, but later separated, and he doesn't know how to come back."
Xiao Tianjian took two deep breaths, took out a dagger from the ring, and slashed his palm, blood came out. He tremblingly stretched out his injured hand to touch the mirror and closed his eyes. As a result, the cold and hard touch that should have been there never occurred. He felt that his hand seemed to have been soaked in a basin of warm gelatin, which was sticky. It's so mushy that it takes a lot of effort to continue to stretch forward. Opening his eyes, he barely screamed.
Half of his hand was inserted into the mirror, and the girl touched his finger curiously. The warm touch of the human body was quickly transmitted to his brain. His nose felt sour and he couldn't help but shed tears.
He finally found his way home.
Withdrawing his hand, he looked again and again, looking at the mirror and the girl on the other side of the mirror. He couldn't help but cover his mouth and squat down.
Mingna looked at her grandfather who was crying softly, and then at the girl on the other side of the mirror. She suddenly had an ominous feeling: "Grandpa, you..." The girl just now seemed to mention "blood" and "going home" or something like that. , is grandpa going back to his hometown? She reached out to touch the crystal mirror. It was cold, hard, and nothing special. Why could grandpa reach in
The girl in the mirror seemed to be a little curious about Ming Na: "Little sister, who are you?" Ming Na understood and stammered in Chinese: "My... name, name... is Ming Na..."
"You speak Chinese?!" The girl jumped up and turned suddenly in the direction of Xiao Tianjian, "Brother, is this your daughter? Are you married over there?"
Xiao Tianjian raised his head and wiped away his tears: "No, she is my...a junior." He did not say it directly. In front of his compatriots, his appearance did not look like that of a grandpa. This matter was a bit complicated. There is no need for the other party to know.
The girl looked at him with a strange expression, and suddenly her eyes widened: "You... look so familiar, I seem to have seen you somewhere..." She thought for a while, and took a breath: "You are Uncle Xiao. Son?! I remember you were killed in a bombing more than three years ago, so you went to that world?!"
Xiao Tianjian was stunned: "You are..."
"I'm Xiaomei. Don't you remember Zhang Xiaomei who lives downstairs in your house?"
Xiao Tianjian thought hard and remembered that there was indeed a colleague named Zhang whose parents lived downstairs. There was a daughter at home, it seems, her name was Xiaomei. She had just entered junior high school, and she was already so old... By the way, she just said , he was "bombed to death" more than three years ago, three years...
The girl Xiaomei ignored his thoughts and jumped away, "Oh, if I had known you were there, I would have gone to seek refuge with you. You don't know how hard it was for me in those days, and I was almost starving to death." Well, I finally caught a fish and grilled it, but it was still half-raw. I have never experienced that kind of bitterness in my life..."
Xiaomei began to tell her painful experience. It turns out that her family moved to the city where Xiao Tianjian once worked as a bodyguard a year ago, and she was admitted to the high school there, but her grades were not very good and she was usually a bit playful. There was a male classmate in the class whose family was very wealthy. He was very attentive to her and invited her out to play during the summer vacation. She followed him to this deserted village in a confused way and entered a famous "haunted house". As a result, she met a few malicious hooligans. The mirror in the middle fell in.
At first, they thought they had fallen into some secret passage. They were so frightened by the corpses and bones of the dead that they finally made it down the mountain. The tide happened to be low, and they almost drowned because they didn't know there was a time limit there. When I arrived at the main island, I met a passing ship and realized that this place was completely another world. The girls are scared and want to turn back, but the boys are ambitious to make their way in the world.
They didn't understand the language in Kamega and had no livelihood skills. They tried their best to steal two boats, but they had a disagreement. The boy went to sea by himself and went to the mainland. Xiaomei wanted to earn money by doing some menial work and then find a way to return home, but everything ran into obstacles. With the help of a few fishermen, she got on a boat passing by the north coast. He rolled back to the Holy Mountain, and before he was about to starve to death, he was accidentally injured and returned to the original world.
As she spoke, she couldn't help crying: "Brother Xiao, you don't know how scared I am. Fortunately, I'm back. Otherwise, I don't know what would have happened. I'm still worried about my classmate. I wonder if he is Safe. I have been scared since I got home. No one knew that I went out with him, but his family has already called the police. Sooner or later they will find out... I heard that there will be demolition and demolition here tomorrow, and they said that a real estate company is going to do it. Development, I just secretly came over to see if he would come back..."
Xiao Tianjian was stunned after hearing this, his mind was in a blur, as if it couldn't move. He vaguely remembered that when the explosion occurred, he was accompanying the company boss to inspect a piece of wasteland where the company planned to invest. There seemed to be a haunted house nearby... So, it was in the same place? Will it be demolished tomorrow? It seemed that he had to go back as soon as possible... He glanced at his little granddaughter subconsciously.
Ming Na looked at him in confusion. Just now, she only understood a few words. Grandpa’s fellow countryman seemed to have come with another person, but later separated, and then she went back... There was something else that exploded...
Ming Na thought of the "foreigner" the fat man mentioned and wondered, could it be him
"Ah! I almost forgot!" Xiaomei suddenly remembered something, "Brother Xiao, Uncle Xiao and Aunt Guan are all sick, and they are very ill. Aunt Guan has been sick since you... uh... traveled through time. She fell ill. In order to treat her, your family spent all the money. Now even Uncle Xiao is ill and there is no one to take care of them. This month's treatment expenses are collected by our family and several other uncles and aunts. Xiao Brother, please come back quickly... Huh? It seems like someone is coming." The mirror shook for a moment, then it went dark, and Xiaomei's footsteps faded away and could no longer be heard.
"Hey, big sister, don't leave." Mingna shouted. Seeing that there was no response in the mirror, she quickly pushed her grandfather: "Grandpa, you see that big sister is missing."
Xiao Tianjian pulled his granddaughter away and gasped a few times, his heart pounding.
His parents are seriously ill! No, he must not sit idly by and watch this matter. Even if he didn't know how to go back before, now that he has found a way, how can he ignore his parents
Holding his granddaughter's arm tightly, he squeezed out a voice: "Mingna, just now, the eldest sister told grandpa that grandpa's parents are seriously ill, and the family has no money. Grandpa wants to go back and take care of her. They, so... you have to be good and don't be afraid. It's still daytime and there are no wild beasts on the mountain. You can go down the mountain later and wait for the sea passage to appear on the shore. Then go back to the boat. They will take you back to Uncle Yutan's house. .Uncle Yutan is my good friend and will send you to your mother properly. No matter what, she will never ignore you. It doesn’t matter who you want to live with...Grandpa, Grandpa can only live with you. Separated…"
Ming Na opened her eyes wide: "Grandpa, what you said is not true, is it? You want... you want to leave me..." She turned to look at the mirror, then looked at her grandpa, and suddenly understood what he meant, and immediately He shouted: "I don't want it! You said you wouldn't leave me! But time and time again, you don't keep your words! Now you don't even want your parents, uncles, aunts, brothers, sisters, and Xiaola." !!!"
Xiao Tianjian hugged his granddaughter, his eyes red: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, grandpa knows that he is bad, but this time is different. Mingna, grandpa's parents are sick. If it were your parents who were sick, you can go back to see them, right? Will you ignore it?"
Ming Na was suffocated, but still unwilling to give in: "Then, then I can go with you. When your parents get better, then... and then..." So what? Come back again? But those were grandpa’s parents. Minna hesitated.
Xiao Tianjian sighed quietly: "Ming Na, you can't follow me. I don't know if I can come back if I go back this time. Do you want to never see your parents for the rest of your life? Grandpa has suffered like this, so... I don't want you to I also feel this pain..."
Ming Na's nose felt sour: "Grandpa, don't leave, I, I can't let you go..."
"Grandpa can't bear to let you go." Xiao Tianjian gently wiped the tears of his little granddaughter, "But there are some choices that we must make no matter how reluctant we are to let you go. Mingna, your family, and your uncle's family, Xiaola Mother and daughter, all of you, you have been able to live a good life without me for so many years, but my parents can't live without me now. My good child, please think more about grandpa. If it were you, your parents would be there very soon. They are sick in a place far away, would you like to leave grandpa and take care of them?"
Minna thought about it, if her father or mother were sick and needed care, would she just play outside with her grandfather and not go home to see them? Even if she knew they were far away, she would still want to go, even if she could never see her grandpa again... Biting her lip, she couldn't help but hug her grandpa and cry.
"What's going on?" A voice came from the mirror again, and Xiaomei appeared again, "Brother Xiao, do you want to come over? Come on, I saw someone coming to blockade this place. They should be preparing for tomorrow. , it would be troublesome if someone discovered it.”
Xiao Tianjian hurriedly let go of his granddaughter and was about to walk towards the mirror when he suddenly remembered something. He immediately took out the coins, potion ingredients and some magic crystals from the storage ring, stuffed them into his granddaughter, and took them out of her storage ring. I got some magic potion in my bracelet. Although they may not be effective against his parents' illness, these medicines can enhance a person's physical condition.
Mingna accepted these things in a daze, with tears on her face and snot in her nose, and she tugged at the corner of her grandfather's clothes and refused to let him go. Xiaomei in the mirror urged: "Hurry up, hurry up." After a pause, she asked curiously: "Is that a storage ring? How many things can it hold?"
Xiao Tianjian did not answer, but comforted his granddaughter for a few words, and then whispered to her: "Don't tell others that I went to another world, just say that I went on an adventure, you know? Otherwise others will bully you."
Mingna nodded casually, watching her grandfather pull away her hand and walking towards the mirror, crying louder and louder.
Xiao Tianjian couldn't bear it. He turned around and cut his palm again and hit the mirror. Unexpectedly, he was blocked this time, as if something was blocking him and preventing him from passing. He tried several times in fear, only to find that almost his whole body could pass through, except for his left hand. How is this going
"That...could it have anything to do with it?" Xiaomei whispered.
Xiao Tianjian followed her finger and looked over. It turned out to be his storage ring. He suddenly thought that this was a space magic prop. This crystal mirror should be a space portal or something like that. Would there be any conflict
"Is there too much room in the ring?" Xiaomei tilted her head and asked.
When Xiao Tianjian heard this, he called Ming Na, took off her bracelet, and held it through the mirror. okay!
It seems that it is really a matter of space to store the ring. Xiao Tianjian quickly took out a bunch of things from the ring, selected the ones he needed most, then emptied the contents of the bracelet and put the selected things in.
When he asked Hanlin to make this storage bracelet for his granddaughter, he left a backdoor so that he could have the right to use the items in the bracelet, and now he just used it.
Minna watched her grandfather stuff his luggage into his ring, and then put some magic potions, non-magical gems, crystals, jewelry, and a few pieces of warm animal fur into his bracelet, and thought After thinking about it, he added a dagger that he usually used before putting the bracelet on his wrist. "Grandpa, what are you doing?" she asked in confusion.
Xiao Tianjian put the ring on his granddaughter's hand, then lightly scratched her finger with a knife, dripping blood onto the ruby set in the ring, and repeated it on himself. Two red lights flashed on the ruby, and then a golden light rose up, circled the ring twice, and disappeared into the ruby again.
"When grandpa got this ring, he was seriously injured. But the medicine was in the ring and no one else could get it out. Grandpa almost died. So, when he met your Aunt Patty later, he asked her to help with some manipulation. You are My granddaughter, who has my bloodline, if you want to open this ring in the future, you only need to put a drop of your blood on the ruby, and then recite the incantation, you can open a hole from the side and take the things inside." Xiao Tianjian said the incantation She said it and asked Ming Na to remember it.
Ming Na repeated it several times before she remembered it. It seemed to be composed of Elvish language and Chinese. It sounded a bit like "Fula Fula Open Sesame Alibaba", which is not difficult to remember.
Xiao Tianjian asked his granddaughter to try it once to ensure that she could get the contents of the ring, and then he felt relieved: "Remember, don't use the ring in front of others easily. When you see your father, give him the contents of the ring. It's the property I left him." An Long had such a quarrel with the people of the Xiao family business that it would be difficult for him to inherit the business, so he had to give him everything in the ring. The wealth should be enough to make his family rich for several lifetimes.
Ming Na nodded and shed tears again: "Grandpa..."
On the other side of the mirror, Xiaomei urged again: "Brother Xiao, hurry up, someone is coming..."
Xiao Tianjian hugged his granddaughter for the last time: "I'm sorry, grandpa is really the worst person in the world, but my parents need me more than you... If I have a chance, I will come back to you..."
He gritted his teeth, let go of his granddaughter, and walked towards the mirror. This time, he passed easily.
Ming Na saw his figure passing through the crystal, crying and rushed towards her, but she could only touch the cold mirror: "Grandpa! Grandpa!"
There was a vague voice from the other side of the mirror: "Wow, Brother Xiao, how many good things are there in this bracelet of yours? If it doesn't work, you can get one from me."
"Okay, you can have it if you want it." Xiao Tianjian dealt with it nonchalantly, looking back at the little granddaughter on the other side of the mirror, feeling sad in his heart.
Xiaomei didn't understand what they just said and didn't say anything. She just stared at the bracelet and urged Xiao Tianjian to leave quickly. Xiao Tianjian reluctantly glanced at his granddaughter again and moved out of the room step by step. At this moment, someone suddenly broke in at the door.
Several policemen came, along with two or three young men dressed as gangsters. When Xiaomei saw them, her face turned pale and she hid behind Xiao Tianjian in a panic. Before Xiao Tianjian could ask what was going on, he was pulled by her and screamed: "Brother Xiao, save me, Brother Xiao, save me! It's none of my business, it's really none of my business!"
Also shouting at the same time were the gangsters: "Sir, it's her. She was the one who ran away with that boy. We really didn't do anything bad!"
When Xiao Tianjian heard this, he understood what was going on. He shouted at Xiaomei to stop him, and tried to explain to the police with a smile. Unexpectedly, the other party seemed to regard him in strange clothes as a suspicious person, and they pulled out guns and pointed at him: " Don't move! Put your hands up!"
Xiao Tianjian was stunned when he felt someone attacking him from behind. He knocked the person down out of reflex, only to realize that it was a policeman. The secret was not good. He saw that the faces of the policemen around him changed, and they seemed to have fired. He had no choice but to drag Xiaomei away and take something out of the bracelet at the same time. But he tried again and again, but the bracelet had no reaction at all, as if it was just an ordinary gold and crystal bracelet. After a moment's hesitation, a gun was pointed at his head, and he immediately dared not move.
In the chaos, someone bumped into the mirror. Ming Na only saw chaos on the other side of the mirror, mixed with women's screams and grandfather's yelling "Don't shoot" (common language in mainland China), and then a large group of people wearing dark clothes and strange hats. She held Grandpa down and shouted "Don't move" (in Chinese). Then the mirror went dark, and she could no longer hear any movement or see any images.
"Grandpa?" Mingna knocked on the mirror, "Grandpa?!"
But after a long time, the mirror didn't show any reaction. Ming Na sat down alone in the stone room, looking at the empty surroundings. Under the blue and white light of the magic lamp, it seemed extremely quiet, which made people feel chilly.
"Crack", a voice came from the aisle behind her, Ming Na jumped up suddenly, listened carefully, and there was silence.
She felt a little uneasy: "Who is it?"
