"Oh." Chu Tianshu nodded, and after a while, he said, "Have we met somewhere before?"
"what?"
Chu Tianshu said again: "You look like you owe me a lot of money."
"what?"
"It doesn't mean you have that kind of appearance, but you have that kind of temperament." Chu Tianshu said in a daze on his back, "You really don't owe me a lot of money?"
Lin Huai endured and endured, and finally replied: "I owe your grandma a leg."
"Oh." Chu Tianshu said, "Then remember to return it to my grandma."
Before Lin Huai couldn't bear it anymore and was about to throw Chu Tianshu down, a voice finally came from their heads: "Hidden mission: Destroy the statue has been completed, now start teleportation, three, two, one..."
Before Lin Huai was about to put the idea in his mind into practice, the system successfully prevented his intention... and in a sense, saved Chu Tianshu's life.
At the same time, there were other surviving players who received the system notification.
Yan Chuchu escaped quickly during the battle of Qingxuguan. She hid under a tree and survived this difficult day. After receiving the news, she breathed a sigh of relief and disappeared into the beam of light.
Cheng Xin was not so lucky. He was frightened by the ghost in red, and accidentally fell off the cliff while escaping. He thought that when he returned to reality, he would also suffer from a sudden illness of pneumonia level...
And when Zhang Mingge opened his eyes, it was already the end of everything.
After being baptized by blood and fire, the entire Qingxu Temple showed an extremely dilapidated appearance. He walked in the temple in a daze, and what he saw in his eyes were all traces of ghosts raging.
"Chu Tianshu... and Lin Huai."
He silently recited these two names in his heart, raised his head, and wrote them down in his heart stroke by stroke.
"We'll meet again, someday in the future." He thought coldly.
Even though he didn't even think about it, the next time we meet again, what he will do first is whether to defeat them or do other things.
And the other person... the driver is relatively tragic.
After being dragged away by Lin Huai on a whim, he not only missed the shuttle bus back to the novice camp, but was also forced to follow a group of mission workers whose concentration of neuropathy seriously exceeded the standard, and had a rather unfriendly mission experience. However, when the mission was over, he sadly found that...
I was not teleported back!
Pain and sorrow swept over his heart. As for this uncle, in the future, based on his rich driving experience, he became a driving school teacher, or became a taxi driver, or one day, met a substitute teacher NPC Cao from Minghua Middle School. Love the people and fall in love with him... that is his own story... In this danmei article, the author will no longer elaborate on his life.
one day later.
The news that the Wang family was exterminated has not yet spread throughout the village, but another latest rumor has already become a household name.
—That is, the Ren family, Ren Qiu, brought back a girl who looked a lot like Ren Chun.
"...Ying Xia," after much hesitation, Aunt Sun still asked, "What's the matter with that girl? Why do she and Ren Chun look so alike? She's so spooky..."
The more she talked, the more frightened she became: "It can't be, it can't be... a ghost?"
"Aunt Sun." Ying Xia said calmly, "Xiao Ran should wake up soon, you should go and see her."
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot the business."
Aunt Sun slapped her thigh and was about to go into the room when she heard Ying Xia's voice: "When she wakes up, please tell her... I'm sorry."
His voice was very soft, but Aunt Sun heard something else: "You are..."
"I'm leaving." Ying Xia smiled wryly.
"Oh. Your mother came back to pick you up." Aunt Sun said, "Good thing, good thing."
Then, she patted Ying Xia on the shoulder: "Listen to your mother, it's a good thing that someone is willing to take care of you. Well, Yingzi is also true. After remarrying for so many years, she doesn't care about you..."
Ying Xia smiled lightly.
When he came out of Mrs. Sun's house, Ren Qiu and Ren Chun were already waiting for him at the door. He looked at the two of them with a dazed expression for a moment.
Three years later, Ren Chun is still the same as before, and her younger brother has grown taller than her. Ying Xia blocked the eyes of several people, and said in a low voice, "In Jiangcun, we... probably won't be able to stay any longer."
His expression was slightly lonely, like a wandering bird who knew that he was about to start wandering from a certain day. Ren Qiu held his hand and said seriously: "We are all the same."
"I'm sorry..." Ying Xia said.
He didn't know why he opened his mouth like this, but he just felt that apart from this sentence, there seemed to be nothing else to say between them. Ren Qiu just smiled and said, "Thank you."
They said nothing else. The girl in red stood behind them, quietly looking at the street in front of them.
There was no look of relief on her face.
"Let's go, sister." Ren Qiu grabbed her hand, "Let's go home."
Then, with his other hand, he held Ying Xia.
The Ren family still maintained the state of yesterday. The girl in red clothes stood in front of the house, opened her mouth slightly, but didn't say a word.
Ren Qiu glanced at her cautiously, and pulled her into the house.
"Mom's in the backyard," he said.
The yellow paper-cut, wrapped in the wind, flew to the girl's face. She took off the note and stared blankly at the two people holding hands on the paper-cut.
"A Chun?"
She heard an old call.
"Ah Chun, is that you?"
She lowered her head and was startled when she saw the old and earnest woman. The woman held out her hands to her, but the girl glanced at her right hand, took a step back, and shook her head.
The old woman suddenly showed a disappointed look. Ren Qiu then stepped forward to comfort her: "Mom, Sister Chun just woke up, after a while she gets used to it, it will be fine."
"It's okay, it's okay, just come back, you two, just come back..." the woman muttered.
The girl looked at her for a long time, and it took a long time before she came over. She pointed to her hand, shook her head, and then gently pressed her cheek against the other's.
First the left cheek, then the right cheek.
Ren Qiu and Ren's mother didn't know why, but Ying Xia understood the girl's thoughts in just a moment.
She said she was too dirty.
She was still wearing the pure white dress she wore when she died. However, the cloth on it has been stained red with the blood of her own and her enemies - that is the mark she can never get rid of.
Her pain, her memories, her shame and her hatred.
After Lin Huai and others left, the mist that surrounded Jiangcun gradually dissipated, but the thicker and deeper mist that enveloped everyone's hearts never dissipated.
They still exist.
Whether it is in the sky above Jiangcun, or in the hearts of the people in Jiangcun.
Unless... They can leave here, go somewhere, and slowly, in a certain way, forget the pain in their hearts.
But that was no easy feat.
Ren Qiu led Ren Chun into the hall of the room, and introduced to her the changes in the family in the past three years. However, when he saw the table, he was taken aback by the amount of things on the table.
"all these are… "
"These are left to us by Brother Lin." Ying Xia said, "Let's... take it apart and have a look."
The three gathered around the table and opened the white gift boxes. They took out the contents of the gift boxes one by one, carefully.
The first thing that appeared in front of everyone was a set of paper furniture with the words "Soaking in water makes reality" written on it. Ren Qiu looked at the furniture and scratched his head.
"This thing... looks very interesting." He said, "It really looks like something Lin Ge would prepare."
What was taken out of the second box was a bunch of review materials. These include the five-year college entrance examination and three-year simulation, the college entrance examination must do the questions, the thirty-eight sets of Tianli, Wang Houxiong, Xue Jinxing, Qu Yixian, Wang Deji, etc...men who make China Everbright candidates love and hate.
On the top of the box, a few words were written in a black ballpoint pen: "Study hard, make progress every day, learn more about the law, and protect yourself. If you encounter similar things in the future, you will beat them back (cross out) and use the law." means to solve the…”
"This..." Ren Qiu looked helplessly at the messyly altered card, "This...is indeed the style of Brother Lin and Brother Chu."
Then, he opened the third box. Unlike the previous two boxes, this one is extremely thin and extremely long. Ren Qiu opened the long box, and what appeared in it was a real estate certificate and a key.
And the place where the real estate certificate belongs is the city that Ying Xia had dreamed of many years ago...the city.
The moment the address came into view, Ying Xia's eyes became moist. There is still a small card in the box, which says: "I can't sell it, but I can live in it. Study hard, don't think about flipping houses and selling them all day long, the key is given to you, remember to keep it. ps Beijing is a good place, except for the sandstorms every day "
He turned back to cover his eyes. Ren Qiu patted him on the shoulder and opened the fourth box.
The fourth is not so much a gift box as an envelope. Inside the envelope were four tickets. The moment Ren Qiu touched the tickets, four names appeared on the four tickets one by one.
Ren Qiu, Ren Chun, Ren Mu, and Ying Xia.
As usual, a small card fell out of the envelope. Through the delicate handwriting on the card, one can also see the face of the person who wrote the card biting the tip of the pen: "Ah...someone forced me to write this, then Just write it down... How do you use this kind of ticket that doesn't even have a name? This game has no common sense at all. You can't just press your finger on it to recognize the name... Speaking of which, there are three of you in total Right? At most three people and one ghost, even the ghosts have to buy a ticket. What kind of harmonious society is this? I can’t write on the card, so I don’t write, that’s it, go wherever you like. By the way—"
Ren Qiu turned the card to the back: "The price of pork has risen again, eat more vegetables."
Ren Qiu: ...
For some reason, the salty tears that were almost shed just now were swallowed back immediately... Ren Qiu wiped his eye sockets. He looked at the driving time, and it clearly showed that it was tomorrow.
… tomorrow.
The salty liquid filled his eyes again. Ren Qiu picked up the ticket and walked to the backyard: "Mom, pack up your things. We can leave here by car tomorrow!"
Behind him, Ying Xia opened the last gift box.
After seeing the contents of the gift box, he smiled and handed the gift box to the girl in red next to him: "This is for you."
—for me
The girl in red tilted her head and took the box. Ying Xia patted her on the head, then went to the yard to find Ren Qiu.
After he left, the girl in red opened the box, and she stayed where she was almost the moment she saw the contents of the box.
—That was something she had never owned for a long, long time.
The originally confused girl in red lowered her head and quietly looked into the box.
In the box, lay a soft thing.
— a white dress.
She took a deep breath for a long time, and pressed her face against the skirt. After a long time, she raised her head.
After confirming that there was no one around her, she stretched out her hand, and slowly, little by little, lifted the white skirt with her fingertips from the very edge.
Pure white, clean, soft, like the sky.
She touched it very carefully, as if if she touched it too much, the snow-like skirt would be dirty and muddy by herself.
The moment she finally lifted the skirt, a small card fell out of the skirt.
The card fell into her palm like a flower petal.
She looked down at the card.
That card was written by two people, one with a handsome font and the other with a wild font. It said: "Even though you are covered with bruises, you are still white."
And the back of the card reads "Don't listen to his bullshit, I still think red looks better."
The inscription is "l&c".
She stared at the card for a long time, and after a long time, she carefully unfolded the skirt and put it on her chest. The fierce ghost in red faced the floor-to-ceiling mirror, closed his eyes, hummed softly, and shook his body gently compared to the pure white skirt.
It's like, secretly dancing with yourself in a corner where no one can see.
"Speaking of which, the system is really cunning..." Lin Huai on the other side, holding his chin, sat on the sofa in the system space and thought, "Take my money and ask me to give gifts to npcs, what a shame! It's really..."
Thinking of this, Lin Huai let out a dissatisfied sigh and stretched himself.
"This is really, in a certain sense in the system, happy end? Wandering around the world with four tickets, then study hard and make progress every day..."
With that said, he looked up at his system panel.
"The system," he said, "pulls out my personal data...by the way..."
"For the sake of being a good person this time." Lin Huai scratched his head, "Can you let me get something useful?"
