"Not anymore." Fang Weijiang sighed again, as if a heavy shackle was removed from his body.
Cui Benshan explained: "This child has a talent that is different from ordinary people, which allows the energy of the Holy Grail to eliminate evil energy in a more detailed manner. On the other hand, it also preserves Fang Weijiang's last vestige of vitality."
"A child can actually do this?" I said in disbelief.
"In other words, it is precisely because he is still a child that he can do this." Cui Benshan said, "This is just an unconscious behavior, and only the unconscious behavior of a child can be so pure. If he is a few years older , that’s not what we saw.”
Fang Weijiang stood up slowly. Although his face was old, his expression was as peaceful as I had ever seen. I was curious and couldn't help but ask, "How are you feeling now?"
Fang Weijiang's face was a little dazed, and he replied slowly: "It's very complicated... I haven't felt so calm for a long time, but at the same time I feel extremely weak now. But thinking back to the past, I instinctively feel disgust and fear. Now I can’t describe the feeling as joy or sadness. Maybe it will take me some time to adapt to this situation and figure out what to do next.”
"No matter what." Fang Weijiang looked at Ren Zhifei, "It was this child who gave me new life. I will live for him in the few remaining years of my life."
Ren Zhifei was just a four or five-year-old child. He didn't understand what the other person was saying at all. He just stared at the other person and giggled. When Fang Weijiang saw this, he even smiled, but the smile looked a little unnatural.
Cui Benshan looked outside the door and said, "I don't know if those dead souls have dispersed. If it takes too long, we will be in trouble if strangers find us."
"Stranger?" I don't quite understand what Cui Benshan means.
Cui Benshan explained, "This is a foreigner camp, and the people living there are naturally foreigners. This group of people has been living in the mountains since ancient times, and has never had contact with the outside world, not even other branches of foreigners." Know the exact location of this alien camp.”
Fang Weijiang walked toward the door and said, "I'm going to take a look. If there are still dead souls, I'll go out and lead them away."
"No! This is too reckless and will cost you your life." Cui Benshan objected.
Fang Weijiang was unmoved and had already stretched out his hand towards the stone door. The moment he touched the door, there was a sudden shaking sound in the whole room, as if there was an earthquake. Debris kept falling from the ceiling, and we hid in a hurry. Fang Weijiang on the other side also gave up on opening the door. If the dead souls are guarding outside, it will only make the situation more critical. He turned back and picked up Ren Zhifei. While looking for a place to hide, he used his body to block the falling gravel.
At this time, I discovered that there were several depressions against the wall that could accommodate one person, so I shouted: "There is a place to hide here!"
The earthquake seemed to be more violent, and the falling gravel became larger and larger, mixed with dust, making the surrounding vision blurry. Fortunately, the others heard my warning and hid in the depression nearest to them.
Just when everyone was hiding in a safe area, the entire room collapsed completely and the rest of the ceiling fell with a deafening bang. The surroundings were filled with choking dust and frightening violent vibrations.
Immediately afterwards, I felt a loud noise in my consciousness, as if something exploded in my mind. I was so frightened that I fainted.
However, just when I fell into coma, I had a very wonderful experience.
Although I fell into a coma, my thinking became very clear, even sharper than when I was normal. I felt like I was in a void, and there seemed to be nothingness around me, but I was very sure that something existed. It seems like lines, like the meridians of the human body, connecting the forbidden area and some other unknown places. I am in the middle of these lines, and countless messages are flooding towards me. Although this is just information, the amount is so huge that I can't even imagine it. I knew very clearly at the time that if all this information was accepted, my brain would probably be overloaded and I would eventually die on the spot.
I wanted to hide at that time, but then I realized that I was just a ball of consciousness and there was nowhere to hide. A huge flow of information instantly passed through my consciousness. I thought I was certain to die, but suddenly I realized that I seemed to be selectively ignoring most of the information and only accepting a very small part of it. But just a small part of it made me feel so dizzy that I couldn't tell what the content of that information was.
This process is very complicated to describe, but it actually only takes a moment.
When I woke up from my sleep, the scene around me was exactly the same as before I fainted. Even the ceiling had not completely fallen to the ground. The only difference is that the earthquake disappeared.
As time passed, the surroundings gradually returned to tranquility.
I walked out of the recess in the wall and saw Cui Benshan and Fang Weijiang holding the child. I could detect a trace of confusion on their faces. I understand that they are going through the same thing as me.
"What is that?" I asked uneasily.
"It seems that you have also received it." Cui Benshan frowned, "The information from ancient strangers. The content of the information is not on the same level as today's people's thinking. It will take me some time to understand what the information specifically refers to. What is it?"
"In addition to that information, I also found something else." Fang Weijiang said, slowly raising his hand.
I saw that Fang Weijiang was holding several pages of paper in his hands.
"Paper?" I was confused and couldn't help but take a second look.
At this time, I finally discovered something unusual about the paper. I have different vision than ordinary people, and my eyesight is not bad. But when I looked at those pieces of paper, my field of vision was always blurry, like a malfunctioning camera that could never focus on the paper. I felt annoyed when I saw it, so I could only look away and said, "There's something weird about this paper."
Cui Benshan also noticed the abnormality, but he was much calmer than me and said, "This paper is not a mortal thing. Where did you find it?"
Fang Weijiang was also a little confused and said: "When I woke up, these pieces of paper were already in my hands. And it's strange. I feel like I can see some of the words on them and recognize those words, but I don't I know what it means, but I can't even pronounce those words. There is no problem with my expression ability, it doesn't seem like I have aphasia, which is really strange."
As Fang Weijiang said this, he found that Ren Zhifei in his arms was smiling and stretched out his hand curiously towards the pieces of paper. Fang Weijiang's heart moved and he sent the paper to Ren Zhifei. The child took it and smiled even more happily.
Fang Weijiang murmured: "He is a descendant of the secret keeper. Could this be..."
"The fragments of the Book of Prophecy." Cui Benshan said, with a very serious tone. "The Book of Prophecy was written by a real person from ancient times. It involves a huge secret about the fate of mankind. No matter what the secret is, it is absolutely We cannot let it fall into the wrong hands.”
Fang Weijiang's old face showed a ruddy luster, as if he had suddenly become ten years younger. He said excitedly: "At this moment, I realized what my mission is! Protect this child until he grows up and is able to fulfill his mission." My mission!"
Cui Benshan nodded and said, "Now, it's time for us to go out."
After hearing these words, I realized that the door to the room had collapsed, but there were no dead souls outside. It seemed that the earthquake had driven away these monsters. Taking advantage of the fact that it was now safe, we set off immediately and left the forbidden area.
There were no more changes on the road, but we didn’t dare to slow down and kept running down the mountain. At that time, I learned that the foreigner’s camp was on Mount Bilin next to Anxiang District.
When it was truly safe, it was time for us to say goodbye.
Cui Benshan decided to find a place to live in seclusion and understand the piece of information he had obtained. He felt that this piece of information might be helpful in the fight against the Guixu believers.
Fang Weijiang also decided to leave the foreigner camp, because there were still Guixu believers that even he didn't know were lurking there, and it was not safe there. According to Fang Weijiang, he felt from the information that there was a place he had to go to, but he didn't know where that place was at that time. I don't know if he has found that place now.
My decision was simple, to return home and return to my ordinary life.
After experiencing so much, I feel that I have a lot more writing materials and will be able to write impressive works.
When we said goodbye, Cui Benshan warned me not to try to understand the information. Because I am just an ordinary person, and the more I know, it will only put me in danger. The best option is to forget all about it.
I did exactly that for a while.
but…
