Chapter 55: A long lost world

Views:

"Xia Qiu, Qian Qi, you are here." Dong Muya said with a smile. She could not remember the last time she smiled like this. Recently, she seemed to be so tired that even her facial nerves failed.

"Yes, I just came back from Changsheng Island." Xia Qiu responded.

"I've heard that you met the legendary Feather Crane Immortal. How did it feel? What kind of person is he?"

Dong Muya became interested as soon as she mentioned Changsheng Island. She had been interested in some of the legends of the Yuhe Immortal for a long time. The beautiful man who had lost his memory woke up on a paradise-like island, isolated from the world and only accompanied by cranes. Such stories always fascinate women, especially her, a member of the Appearance Association.

"He is a very kind person, and also very pitiful... I came back this time to ask you for help. After leaving Tianfu, he became weaker and weaker and may die at any time. I think if I can find out anything about him The information about the lost part of his memory might have saved his life."

"Well." Dong Muya paused, and then suddenly remembered the WiseMan, "I recently found a person who was selling information in this regard. Although I am a little disgusted by his claiming to be the truth, according to some of my acquaintances, he The information provided is very accurate... That guy is extremely cunning and even attacked my computer! Although I don't know where he got this information from, I think he still knows a lot of things beyond my records. I can do it next time Ask him to try."

Dong Muya later communicated with that WiseMan several times. Because his asking price for information related to Black Meteor was too high, she finally weighed and only purchased some information about Hunli from him. She thought there would be a way to catch him when making the payment, but she didn't expect that he would never mention how to pay. While she was still wondering, she received a message from the bank that the corresponding amount in her account had been withdrawn by her. . He even cracked her personal information and bank password. How powerful is this person? The more she thought about it, the more she felt surprised and shuddered.

Dong Muya's answer made Xia Qiu feel relieved. In her eyes, her teacher was becoming more and more legendary. The agreement with Yuhe Immortal was finally settled. She breathed a sigh of relief and decided to go upstairs to have a phone call with her family and Lingmei. Her mobile phone was still left in Ouyang's ancient house. Recently, Dong Muya took the call with her family on her behalf. message.

"These, these... have never been mentioned in the books I have read. It's amazing!" Qian Qi was attracted by the computer just now, and now he saw the novelty called a mobile phone in Xia Qiu's hand. When he heard about it After using it, he became completely incoherent.

Xia Qiu walked upstairs to the room where she had lived before and called her family and Liu Lingmei. In order not to worry them, she deliberately made her tone calm, even if tears welled up in her eyes.

She first called her grandparents. The person who answered the phone was her grandfather. Because she was hypnotized by Ouyang Xiaoleng, they were not worried about her staying at Ouyang's ancient house at all. They just told her about his relationship with Ouyang these days. Grandma's living situation, knowing that their health was okay, made her feel more at ease. The phone call with her father was also unexpectedly warm. She thought he would blame her, but she did not feel the coldness in his tone. The words he said at the end about taking care of yourself made her think first. For the first time, I felt that my father loved me. Liu Lingmei first complained about her not answering the phone and only replying to text messages, but then she began to care about how she was doing during this time, and told her about the new things in school these days.

As soon as she hung up the phone, she burst into tears, but she still didn't dare to cry because Qian Qi and Dong Muya were still outside. She really wanted to shut herself in this room all night, but she had to walk in front of them because Dong Muya insisted that she take her and Qian Qi out for dinner after the phone call. Looking at her red eyes, Qian Qi wanted to rush over immediately to ask what happened, but was stopped by Dong Muya who was standing aside. She understood Xia Qiu's mood at the moment, so instead of saying some useless words to comfort her at this time, She might as well choose to skip this topic and take her to do other things to distract her.

"There's a new store opened in the commercial street. I've always wanted to try it. It's Western-style fast food. You young people will definitely like it."

When Dong Muya finished saying this, she suddenly realized that she was really old. She once felt that her time had stood still. From the day she met Ouyang Hongye, when she came into contact with the past, she could not imagine it. When she encountered another world and so many unknown things, she felt that the concept of time was irrelevant.

It wasn't until Xia Qiu and the others appeared in front of her, as if they were reenacting scenes from her girlhood, that she realized that she was really no longer young. Although her appearance is smaller than that of her peers, she is still a thirty-four-year-old woman after all. Compared with Ouyang Hongye's appearance that will not age for thousands of years, she has completed the transformation since she was a child in the past twenty years. During the transformation from a girl to a woman, she once thought that if one day she was old enough to have wrinkles on her face, she would hide herself and never see Ouyang Hongye again, leaving only the image of her youth in his heart.

They immediately headed to the American family restaurant on the commercial street. Xia Qiu was always a little worried about meeting other classmates along the way. After all, Yongchuan was not a very big place, so she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. The person she was most worried about meeting was Liu Lingmei. In fact, she had made up her mind several times to reveal to Lingmei some of the things she was going through now. Because she couldn't tell the whole story, she had to tell her which part she should reveal and which part she couldn't. No choice.

The night in Yongchuan became even cooler. Dong Muya chose a sweatshirt and a pair of jeans for Qianqi from Ouyang Xiaoleng's clothes. For him, jeans are a very magical design. Compared with the sportswear he wore last time, He liked the clothes even more. He had never seen that kind of material. It was a bit thick, but it was not difficult to walk, especially the lines on the pants that looked like water-milled water. They were indescribably casual. He made up his mind. I will definitely buy an identical pair if I have the chance.

Xia Qiu insisted on sitting in a corner of the restaurant, but Dong Muya disagreed and was not worried at all that others would see them together. It's been a long time since I've had a decent meal. During this time in the demon world, Xia Qiu has been living a rough life, so when the burger is placed in front of him, it seems to have a magical power that can offset all worries. Qianqi ordered the same thing as Xia Qiu. He was simply fascinated by the taste of the burger. It was undoubtedly one of the most delicious things he had ever eaten. Compared with the most famous horned deer spirit in the demon world, it was almost extinct. The white ghost fish was no less impressive, and he was full of praise for the French fries dipped in ketchup. He devoured four or five large burgers in a row before finally feeling full.

Dong Muya only ordered tuna salad. As soon as she left the books and materials in Ouyang's ancient house, her endless energy due to her high concentration disappeared. The fatigue that she should have had hit her whole body, and she lazily He was eating the food on the plate in front of him and looking at the two children in front of him who were devouring it. , I thought to myself that it would be great if the food I cooked could make others feel so happy, and then I couldn’t help laughing.

The next day was the weekend. Xia Qiu wanted to go home to see her grandparents no matter what, so Qian Qi insisted on accompanying her. The plants in the yard were all withered and yellow, and the leaves hung listlessly to the ground. Compared with the four seasons in the courtyard of Ouyang's ancient house, it was full of late autumn colors. Looking at them, a trace of imperceptible sadness flashed in her eyes.

Qianqi caught the emotion in her eyes, stepped forward and gently brushed the plants with his hands, and they miraculously began to flourish again. Xia Qiu remembered that Wang Yue had used the same method to reopen Ouyang Yong's plum blossoms. Dragons are creatures with healing abilities. They can not only heal diseases and injuries, but also plants. Grandpa's favorite peony even once again bloomed. It’s still in bud, I wonder if he will be frightened when he sees it.

It has always been Qianqi's wish to visit the place where Xia Qiu lived. When she entered the house, he was waiting for her outside the courtyard. On the way back to Ouyang's ancient house, she deliberately chose to take a detour and pass by her and Ouyang Xiaoleng's school. This was a place she used to come to every day, but now it has become a bit strange. There are only a few scattered people in the empty playground. Playing basketball, the rooftop that can be seen at a glance is full of memories of the past.

In Qianqi's opinion, this place is as strange to him as other places. Although he has read in books about what schools in the human world are like, for him who has been taught by several teachers alone since he was a child, so many people Being able to study together was unimaginable to him.

Xia Qiu is already very familiar with the confusing path leading to Ouyang's ancient house. Dong Muya still locks herself in the underground database to search for information about Yuhe Immortal. Xia Qiu decides to find Ouyang Gu during her busy period. Give the house a good cleaning. Although he didn't dare to touch the materials scattered around the living room, he at least cleaned up the floor and kitchen. Qianqi lamented how a human girl had so much energy and could be busy from morning to now, but she was obviously tired and hungry.

As evening approached, Dong Muya suddenly ran up from the underground database, holding a pile of newly typed documents in her hands. She called Xia Qiu and Qianqi to the living room, and then sat down on the sofa. It seemed that exhausted.

"I gained a lot today!" She continued while taking the hot tea from Xia Qiu, "I thought he wouldn't come today because he would only show up every once in a while, but I didn't expect him to really come. It popped up again.”

Dong Muya knew that her computer should be under some kind of surveillance by WiseMan, so she had been deliberately searching for information about Yuhe Immortal, but the dialog box never popped up. Just when she was about to give up, he Finally appeared. He offered an unprecedentedly high price for Yuhe Senren's information, which she could not afford now, but he offered to pay him in stages. Under this temptation, she did not hesitate. Accepted the deal.

"I thought he wouldn't know about Yuhe Sennin. Unexpectedly, he told me as soon as he heard the name that he had always liked this person, and he now has a lot of information about him. Of course this The guy once again asked for a sky-high price, but fortunately he allowed me to pay him in installments, otherwise I would have watched the important information slip away."

"Stop being so pretentious, you've already whetted our appetite." Qian Qi urged impatiently.
