"No, he didn't think that way." Jiang Cheng denied, trying to hide the anxiety in his heart.
Obviously, such poor acting didn't work out. Chu Xueying showed a disappointed look and said to herself: "No, it's just a nightmare. No matter how real it feels, no one will believe it. Could it be that that dream gave him an indescribable feeling?" Feeling, a completely different sense of reality than the waking moment!…”
As she spoke, Chu Xueying's words became more and more messy, making it difficult to understand. She was trying to express something, but the more she did so, the more unable she was to say complete words. Chu Xueying was very anxious, pulling her hair in distress, as if she would become extremely crazy at any time.
Jiang Cheng looked at Chu Xueying's expression and couldn't help but think of Zhang Xiao he saw yesterday. In order to stop Chu Xueying from going crazy, he hugged his girlfriend and comforted her with a gentle voice, "He believes in me! I don't need to say anything anymore, he understands how I feel! Everything will be fine."
Following those gentle words, Chu Xueying gradually became quieter, and her eyes regained some clarity. After a long while, she finally said a complete sentence with a hoarse voice, "Thank me."
"It's okay." Jiang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Chu Xueying's haggard look, he felt pain coming from his heart. He finally made up his mind and said, "Let's get out of there together!"
Chu Xueying looked at Jiang Cheng in surprise and asked, "Why did I say that? If I just left like that..."
"Inheritance? No need!" Jiang Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "It's really too weird there. God knows what will happen if we continue to go east!"
"No, no inheritance!" Chu Xueying shook her head, "If they leave, they will never know the truth!"
"The truth?" Jiang Cheng didn't know what Chu Xueying was referring to.
Chu Xueying also looked at Jiang Cheng and asked instead: "I also think it's all very strange. Don't I want to know what caused it? His aunt's death, was it really a simple suicide?"
After going around in a circle, the two of them came to the original question. A feeling of powerlessness spread in his heart, and Jiang Cheng began to feel tired.
Chu Xueying continued: "That Zhang Xiao must know something! He..."
Jiang Cheng heard Wong Fang stop and shut up. Looking up, Wong Fang seemed to be stunned. For a moment, Chu Xueying's expression turned into shock, and she murmured: "He knows what Zhang Xiao is talking about!"
Chu Xueying quickly turned over on the bed, threw herself in front of the notebook on the table without even wearing slippers, opened it for a while, and then rummaged through the box to find a pen. At that time, she turned to Jiang Cheng, who was still confused about the situation, and asked, "Do I remember what Zhang Xiao was mumbling before falling asleep?"
Jiang Cheng felt puzzled by Chu Xueying's behavior, so he replied: "Tong Xingtao said that he was reciting the Heart Sutra."
"Heart Sutra! That's right!" Chu Xueying turned around and flipped through the pages again, seeming to be searching for something. She looked at what she had found, opened the book and took out a pen, wondering what she was writing.
Seeing Chu Xueying acting as if there was no one around, Jiang Cheng thought she was going crazy again and walked forward. Jiang Cheng just wanted to say something to persuade him. The moment he saw the book, his expression became very shocked, and he forgot what he had originally said. He saw that Chu Xueying connected some words together with a pen, and those lines before actually formed a word.
"Then... what's that?" Jiang Cheng murmured.
Chu Xueying said as she was busy: "That's the message Auntie really left for them! The words in the notebook were not written randomly, but she could confuse them and deliberately pretend to be like that. She The information I really want to tell them is the words connected in the order of the Heart Sutra."
After Chu Xueying finished all that, Jiang Cheng opened the book again and read out the text page by page, "Painting, room, color, material, red?"
"Auntie... what do you want to say?" Chu Xueying stared at the big words on each page, lost in thought.
The sound of footsteps sounded, and Jiang Cheng walked to the center of the studio, looking around. Next to the unfinished oil painting, he saw a brand new paint bottle, the paint in the bottle was as bright as blood. Chu Xueying came closer and also noticed the paint bottle. She said with absolute certainty, "No that."
Jiang Cheng took a deep breath, slowly opened the paint bottle, took a look inside, and said, "It's just a bottle of paint." Until now, he still doubted Chu Xueying's judgment.
Chu Xueying took the paint bottle without arguing. She grabbed a paintbrush and stirred it. Suddenly, the paintbrush seemed to be blocked by something and could no longer be stirred. Chu Xueying said in surprise, "There is indeed something inside."
Jiang Cheng watched Chu Xueying pour out the paint, and something fell to the ground along with the paint. He saw that it was a note wrapped in a plastic bag. Chu Xueying also noticed that her clothes were stained by the paint, so she leaned over to pick it up. Jiang Cheng looked at the note in the plastic bag and his mood became very complicated. He vaguely felt that once he saw the appearance in the note, they might never be able to leave again.
Chu Xueying carefully opened the note and was surprised at the contents inside, and then slowly read it out.
"I'm sorry, he's sorry for putting me in that predicament. I'm sorry, his niece, Chu Xueying..."
"Did Auntie write it to him?" Chu Xueying's voice was choked with sobs, and she could no longer continue reading.
Jiang Cheng frowned and took the note. He saw the handwriting on the yellowed paper was beautiful and clear, indicating that the person who wrote it was very clear-headed. He continued: "If I go back there and it's not over, that means I'm in great danger."
"Danger?" Chu Xueying said in confusion, "Will something happen?"
Jiang Cheng patiently read to the east, "What happened ten years ago happened again. That matter was very complicated. He couldn't describe it to me in detail in a hurry. He just hoped that I could stay away from there as soon as possible. If he didn't seek to find out the truth, he would sacrifice his life. There are already too many victims, and he doesn’t want me to be one of them. If he dies, don’t seek revenge for him. But if I have fallen into it, go to the place they once mentioned, where I can get The truth of everything. If Lu Ziqi is alive, maybe, everything is very promising... "
After reading the content of the note, Jiang Cheng saw a strange symbol drawn on the back of the note. Inside a circle, the messy lines depicted a strange... creature with butterfly wings and a flame-like body. If so, then or some kind of creature.
Jiang Cheng put the note in his lap and didn't know what to say for a moment. Suddenly there was too much information, and both of them needed time to sort out their thoughts.
