I have to say that Zheng Kun's longing for his hometown is too strong, and in addition to being favored by Bai Duan's "innocence" during this period of time, he confided in a moment of excitement that he had been trying to The biggest secret of "Hiding".
Although he had never heard the word "crossing" before, when Zheng Kun spat out these two words, Bai Duan felt blessed in an instant and understood the meaning of the word.
Although he was a little surprised, Bai Duan was not surprised. After all, when he sensed Zheng Kun's appearance, he already vaguely understood that this person did not belong to this world, but came from an unknown place outside this world. And then, Zheng Kun's clumsy cover-ups all show that he is unusual. Whether it is behavior, conversation or way of thinking, he is very different from the orcs in this world.
Zheng Kun's words are tantamount to nonsense in anyone's ears, but to Bai Duan, it makes his heart move. It seems that there is some truth that is vague and ready to come out——Zheng Kun is "traversing", He came from another world, so... what about me? Like he said, he also "traversed"
Bai Duan was sure that he did not have any memory loss since he was a child. He clearly remembered how he grew up day by day under the care and care of his parents, brothers, sisters, clansmen and Bazel. But instinctively, he felt a subtle distance between himself and the world.
Bai Duan likes his family, he enjoys their love, and tries his best to repay his feelings. But sometimes, feelings are not as clear as "1 1 = 2". Even if Bai Duan really loves his family, there is always a wonderful premonition in the dark, reminding him to have a different feeling. reserve.
— Only Bazel is different, he is the only one who does not make Bai Duan feel alienated, and even likes him at first sight.
It is precisely because of this estrangement that Bai Duan left his family and tribe without hesitation, and "wandered the world" with Bazel. Otherwise, according to Bai Duan's delicate and family-loving nature, he would never be willing to leave his relatives and the "home" he had long identified.
——Also, if I am the same "traveler" as Zheng Kun, that can also explain why I have a kind of sympathetic pity for him, and even uncharacteristically meddle in other people's business
It's just that, although there is some enlightenment in the dark, Bai Duan doesn't show any abnormality on the surface.
In this life, although Bai Duan was raised and pampered by Bazel at the tip of his heart, he never encountered any setbacks and troubles, and he looked silly and sweet without knowing the world, but the caution and vigilance accumulated in previous lives have long been It has been integrated into his flesh and blood, and has become his natural instinct.
Bai Duan doesn't want to use his brain too much and do everything according to his heart, it's just because he doesn't want to hide his pretense in front of Bazel and his family. But for Zheng Kun, Bai Duan did not have such sincere trust. Although these days, Bai Duan and Zheng Kun got along very well, and they looked like good friends, but in fact, Bai Duan did not really regard Zheng Kun as "one of his own", and never really opened up to him .
For Bai Duan, Zheng Kun is at best just a special and interesting "playmate" who can pass the time and is dispensable.
When Zheng Kun's words made Bai Duan feel the threat of "the truth being told", the instinctive vigilance appeared instantly. He blew up the white hair all over his body as if he was offended, emotional and angry, full of resistance: "What are you talking about?! I haven't forgotten any memory! My home and my clan are all here ! I belong here!"
Bai Duan's voice was decisive, and the anger brewing in it immediately poured out Zheng Kun's burning heart of "seeing fellow villagers" until only a puff of smoke remained. Facing Shang Baidu's firm and unusually bright eyes, Zheng Kun quickly realized how bad the words he had just said on the spur of the moment-to judge others by himself, if he lived in the original world properly, someone would Popping up out of nowhere and telling him "you don't belong here", he must be going crazy too! What's more, this is just a... seems a bit arbitrary guess, maybe Bai Duan is really just... born smart
Seeing that his savior "little angel" was really angry, Zheng Kun didn't dare to say anything more, and stayed with him for a long time in a low voice, then he coaxed Bai Duan into a "happy smile" again. The stubble was thrown over.
Zheng Kun has a big heart, even if he encounters time travel and his future is uncertain, he can deal with it safely without life threatening. So even though he still had some doubts, he was easily fooled by Bai Duan's acting skills, put the matter behind him, and continued to seriously develop his own weapons.
However, the other party, Bai Duan, secretly kept this matter in his heart.
When Bazel returned from hunting, took Bai Duan away from Zheng Kun and flew up the tree, Bai Duan did not leave Bazel's arms as usual, but tightened his arms around his neck , sticking himself closer to him.
"What's wrong?" Sensitively aware that the little lover was a little strange today, Bazel asked softly.
"I chatted with Zheng Kun today, and he said... I am also a 'time traveler'." Bai Duan replied in a low voice, "What is time travel? Is it like him... from another world? I... really have to be the same as him ?"
Looking at the lover who was feeling depressed and wandering, Bazel's expression moved slightly, but he didn't deny it outright. Instead, he asked instead: "You should be aware of something when you ask me like this?"
Bai Duan pursed her lips and remained silent for a long time, finally rubbing against Bazel's neck, she nodded slightly.
Immediately, Bazel understood.
Now, under the baptism of the energies of so many worlds, Bai Duan's spirit has become strong to a certain extent, otherwise he would not have broken through the seal of the Taoist companion contract, and would not have He noticed the strangeness at the same time.
The stronger the soul, the more powerful it means that Bai Duan is getting more and more detached from the world, no longer an "indigenous" in the world, but a "native" who belongs to the gray space and can travel freely between different worlds. maintainer".
Although Bai Duan has not yet recovered his memory, the powerful and detached spirit has already made him vaguely aware of the difference between himself and the world he lives in, and other residents of this world, and the arrival of Zheng Kun has accelerated this process. , Catalyzing Bai Duan to perceive her "truth" faster.
"He's right, and he's not right." Patting the troubled little lover's head, Bazel smiled slightly, "You are indeed from another world like him, but where you really belong is far beyond to his imagination."
Accepting Bazel's comfort, Bai Duan felt the temperature and weight from above her head, and her heart quickly settled down: "Then where do I really come from?"
"It's hard to explain clearly to you now. You come from a higher place and have traveled through many worlds, and this is only a small part of your journey." Bazel shook his head, his tone was a bit complicated, as if he was expecting another As if annoyed, "When the time comes, you'll know everything—and that day isn't too far away."
Hearing Bazel say this, Bai Duan, who had great trust in him, naturally did not embarrass him, quickly skipped this question, and turned to focus on the more important "points" to him: "What about you? You and I'm from the same place, right?"
Bai Duan put his hands on Bazel's shoulders, straightened up, his eyes widened, serious and focused. Bazel looked at him for a few seconds, and raised the corners of his mouth: "Of course, no matter which world we are in, we are always together and will never be apart."
Hearing Bazel's promise, Bai Duan was immediately happy, and quickly let go of the last worry in her heart—although it was a bit frightening to suddenly know that she came from another world, as long as she was with Bazel, there was nothing wrong with it. need to care.
Limp body, leaning into Bazel's arms, listening to the steady and powerful heartbeat, the white satin eyebrows were curved, full of intoxicating sweet trust: "Then I don't worry! We have agreed, we will always be together ! Don't break your promise!"
"Well, I've made a deal, I will never break my promise." Bazel stared at the back of Bai Duan's white head, his tone was gentle and smiling, but his eyes were extremely deep and firm, "Even if one day you are angry with me and don't want to see me again, I will also follow closely behind you and will never let you out of my sight."
Bai Duan: "………………"
For some reason, being stared at by Bazel's earnest and determined eyes, Bai Duan opened her mouth, obviously wanting to retort, "There will never be a day when I don't want to see you", but suddenly I can't say it out of nowhere.
His eyes shifted subtly for a moment, Bai Duan frowned silently, and suddenly had a premonition that he might regret today's promise.
After three seconds of silence, Bai Duan coughed lightly, and suggested hesitantly: "If you did something wrong and made me angry, maybe disappear for a while, and it would be better for me to calm down...?"
Bazel: "………………"
"Hehe, the beauty you want is absolutely impossible!" Bazel narrowed his eyes as he pressed Bai Duan back into his arms, "I'll just pester you, admit to beating and scold, and keep pestering you." Until you calm down!"
Bai Duan: "... So, you really did something to make me angry, right?"
Bazel: "……………… →_→"
—I really feel more and more uneasy about the days after my future lover regains his memory... I always feel that now is the calm before the storm, and the two of them, this "giant ship of love", are about to face a stormy test .
