One Thousand Two Hundred Seven, Complex Emotions
The Lianduan Mountains in the west of the Qing Dynasty are no-man’s land, just like Xiuzhuzhou in the south of the Zhou Dynasty. The harsh environment makes it inaccessible.
Poisonous insects and miasma make everyone stay away.
Once the Yang family wanted to expand westward, but found that the cost of development was too high, it is better to stabilize their existing power first.
The Lianhuan Mountains are densely populated with jungles, which are almost indistinguishable from rainforests.
Originally, Ren Xiaosu was worried that crawling in such a jungle in the early morning would be a hindrance. After all, he was so big and the forest was so dense.
As a result, he found that in the early morning, he was wading directly and smartly in the stream.
In the early morning, unlike Lao Xu, Lao Xu, as a shadow, has no thinking ability at all, so Ren Xiaosu's ability to do two things with one heart has been exercised to the extreme.
As for the early morning, it has its own thinking, so after giving it an order, it does not need to worry about it, it will have its own style and method of doing things.
The fish in the Lian Duan Mountains are very dangerous, but that is only relative to ordinary people. According to Ren Xiaosu, the piranhas in the Amazon basin before the cataclysm were all younger brothers in front of today's Heiyu.
Of course, there is no mutation over there, but it is not clear.
The Qinghe Group has satellites, so Li Yingyun, Qin Sheng, Zhang Qingxi and other knights have seen the whole world. They once described to Ren Xiaosu: Because of the changes in the earth's crust, the world has long been a little different from before the cataclysm.
Ren Xiaosu was thinking that it would be good for him and Yang Xiaojin to go around the world with Yang Xiaojin when he waited for the barrier alliance to settle down.
He silently looked at Yang Xiaojin beside him, it seems that since he came out of the wizarding kingdom, the other party has been a little taciturn.
When Ren Xiaosu was chatting with Luo Lan before, Yang Xiaojin sat on the side and didn't know what to think.
Just as Ren Xiaosu was peeking, Yang Xiaojin suddenly turned around and said, "You can watch it openly."
"Haha," Ren Xiaosu hurriedly changed the subject: "I saw a wild boar drinking water by the stream with its cubs just now, but they were all scared away in the early morning, thinking about the time when I just became an extraordinary person and entered the holy mountain. , even the red deer are afraid."
Then, they were silent again.
A strange atmosphere permeated between the two of them, and Ren Xiaosu suddenly had vague worries.
This change seems to have started in Ghent.
At that time, the sixth field division had already begun to retreat from the key gate. Before leaving, Da Huyou asked him, "Young Commander, do you have any other gains from coming to this wizarding country?"
Ren Xiaosu replied, "Yes, I figured out my background."
At that time, Da Huyou was still very surprised: "Young Commander, aren't you from China, why did you come here to find your life experience?"
Ren Xiaosu just answered vaguely: "It has something to do with that knight in the Central Plains."
Maybe others can't guess what, but he and Yang Xiaojin have discussed about the 001 experimental body several times, so Yang Xiaojin can definitely think of it.
In this world, what are the keywords most closely related to Ren He, the founder of Qinghe? It's Experiment 001.
The new human who is said to be able to live dozens of times, hundreds of times as long as normal humans.
That is, since that time, Yang Xiaojin has become much quieter.
Ren Xiaosu looked at the map Zhou Qi had drawn for him, and pointed the way forward in the early morning.
Zhou Qi said that he had explored the river for a long time after his awakening, and he had been seen in the entire southwest river basin.
At that time, Zhou Qi had just become an extraordinary person and experienced the magic of otherworldliness.
He once found an underground hot river, where a new water system environment has been formed, where the crustal plates are connected and squeezed, and the ground contains huge energy.
This place should be able to become a new home in the early morning.
Ren Xiaosu didn't let the early morning return to Jingshan, because when he summoned the early morning to come out, he already knew that there was a zero-controlled army stationed there, and even Dusk was under the opponent's control.
Summoning is one-way, it can only be summoned and cannot be returned.
Jingshan was at the edge of the Qing clan's control area. If Ren Xiaosu wanted to take the early morning to Jingshan directly, he would have to pass through the Qing clan's territory on the way.
And after arriving at Jingshan, even if he destroys the troops there, the final result is to face the controlled Twilight, because Ren Xiaosu has no way to directly destroy the nano-robots inside Twilight's body.
Daxing Northwest Summoning can directly break the control, but if it is still in the early morning, even if Ren Xiaosu calls Daxing Northwest a hundred times, it will still be early morning, not dusk, from behind the Gate of Starry Sky.
So, in fact, Ren Xiaosu doesn't know how to solve the problem of dusk now, maybe he can try to talk to Zero?
Or, he opened the seal directly and became the will of this world?
But it has really become a will. Does everything you have now have meaning?
Those friends who are like family, and Yang Xiaojin, if they miss themselves in the future, they can only look up at the sky, right?
To be honest, Ren Xiaosu wasn't quite sure what he would become when he became the will of the world, and he didn't want to know at all.
While thinking about it, Ren Xiaosu had already seen the steam in front of him constantly steaming, and he could even smell the faint smell of sulfur in the air.
It seemed to be happy in the early morning, and it purred from its throat like a big happy cat.
After climbing over a small low mountain, Ren Xiaosu sat on the top of his head in the early morning overlooking the past. The huge lake in front of him was like a crescent moon. The sparse steam on the lake was constantly flowing. It was like a real fairyland on earth.
"It's here," Ren Xiaosu said, jumping off his head in the early morning: "The crescent-shaped lake, according to Zhou Qi, the bottom of this lake is extremely deep, as if it connects to the center of the earth, and he didn't dare to go deep at that time."
He patted the huge paw in the morning: "Go, this is the place for you."
Looking down at Ren Xiaosu in the early morning, he didn't expect that he had just reunited with his master and was about to part again.
It tilted its huge head and looked at Ren Xiaosu, the sky above the Lian Duan Mountains was covered with dark clouds, and the vertical pupils in the early morning had turned into round pupils, so the early morning now doesn't look so fierce, but rather cute.
It pointed to the lake with its paws, and then pointed to Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin.
Ren Xiaosu smiled and said, "We can't live here with you, we have other things to do."
In the early morning, he could understand what Ren Xiaosu said, so he was a little disappointed.
But Ren Xiaosu thought for a while and said, "We'll stay with you for a while, until you figure out what's in the lake before we leave."
Having said that, he ran to the Crescent Lake in the early morning.
Seeing that when he ran to the lake in the early morning, he jumped up and plunged straight into the lake.
That movement was like a cannonball falling into the lake, and even the steam rolled like a cloud.
However, he didn't swim to the bottom of the lake in the early morning. Ren Xiaosu found that he had the urge to get into the bottom of the lake several times, but he resisted it. The energy of the Rehe at the bottom of the lake seemed to be attracting him.
The huge gecko lizard was patrolling by the lake, and from time to time it would look at Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin, as if afraid that they would run away.
Ren Xiaosu smiled at the early morning and said, "Go, you can go to the bottom of the lake first, we won't leave."
It was not until the early morning when I heard this that I plunged into the lake.
"The magic of creation is astounding. Even creatures like this can appear in the early hours of the morning. It's really hard to imagine what the world will look like in the future," Ren Xiaosu said while sitting by the lake.
He skillfully started a bonfire, and Yang Xiaojin sat directly beside him, eating the food cooked by Ren Xiaosu as if nothing had happened.
As she ate, she asked casually, "Don't you have anything to tell me? You should have found a lot of answers in the wizarding country."
Ren Xiaosu thought to himself that what should come is coming, he sighed and said, "I have retrieved my memory, I am Experimental 001."
Yang Xiaojin was not too surprised, he should have guessed the result long ago: "Continue."
"Ren He, the founder of Qinghe, is my father," Ren Xiaosu said. "I had cancer before the cataclysm, and cancer was still incurable at that time, so my life was counted down every day at that time. , I was sent by my father to the 039 laboratory of the Tinder Company for treatment, and after the conventional treatment methods failed, Dr. P began to use more aggressive genetic agents after seeking the consent of my father and me."
"As Qing Zhen guessed, the reason why the experimental body appeared is that the cancer cells in the whole body reorganized and reached a balance and harmony. It's just that they are defective products, but I have successfully become the so-called new human."
"Why is it only you who can succeed?" Yang Xiaojin wondered.
"Because I opened the genetic lock before the cataclysm," Ren Xiaosu explained calmly, "This is the inheritance technique my father studied. It uses eight challenges to unlock the inner potential of the body. That's why I can survive the genetic medicine. The side effects, but not the experimental body. However, I am not the only successful case, Yan Liuyuan is also, I believe his memory has awakened now. "
"In other words, strictly speaking, our species are different? Then how did Yan Liuyuan succeed," Yang Xiaojin asked.
"Because Dr. P transplanted my bone marrow to him, replacing his own hematopoietic ability," Ren Xiaosu explained, "So now I plan to find a qualified hospital and transplant my bone marrow to you, so that you can lifespan..."
Yang Xiaojin interrupted, "How old are you this year?"
Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment. In fact, this was the question he had been avoiding.
In the face of 19-year-old Yang Xiaojin, Ren Xiaosu's age is like a very dazzling thorn. Although he still looks like a teenager, although most of the time he is asleep, his mind is not vicissitudes, but this age is still a bit scary.
Regardless of whether Yang Xiaojin would care, Ren Xiaosu himself would be a little nervous: What if the other party would mind? What if Yang Xiaojin cares about her age?
what is love? Ren He said: Love suddenly has a weakness, and suddenly it has an armor.
And Ren Xiaosu's current feelings are like a giant dragon guarding a treasure, fierce and innocent, powerful and lonely, gentle and embarrassed, timid and free, it is very cute, but sometimes too nervous.
The young man in love has to worry about gains and losses, even if he is the young marshal of the Northwest Army, he is no exception.
Regardless of the "past life" and "this life", Yang Xiaojin was his first love, and Ren Xiaosu had no experience in love, so he couldn't act so easily.
The girl with the peaked cap sat quietly beside the bonfire, the steam on the lake not far away was blown by the mountain wind, like the clouds in the sky.
This girl was so unique that Ren Xiaosu never put other girls in his eyes or heart.
Yang Xiaojin asked again at this time, "How old are you this year?"
Ren Xiaosu whispered, "Strictly speaking, he is 240 years old."
Yang Xiaojin was silent.
Ren Xiaosu suddenly asked, "Would you mind?"
At this time, Yang Xiaojin did not answer the question, but changed the subject: "Teach me how to open the door of the key first."
Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a while, as if the other party's attitude of not answering the question was already an attitude.
He thought for a while, and finally took out another black eye of true sight from the palace and handed it to Yang Xiaojin, and then took out the big iron gate he just grabbed: "Just drop blood on the eye of true sight and twist it on the door. Ten laps, you know."
"Well," Yang Xiaojin took out the dagger she was carrying and cut her fingers, and then dripped blood on the Eye of True Sight.
She took a deep breath and pressed the black stone against the big iron gate and rotated, and a layer of transparent ripples above the iron gate was centered on the stone and rippling around.
Yang Xiaojin turned to look at Ren Xiaosu: "Come with me, I want to see where I want to go most."
"Well," Ren Xiaosu nodded and said.
At this time, he got out of the lake in the early morning, and Ren Xiaosu explained, "In the early morning, guard this door and don't let any animals destroy it."
Having said that, Ren Xiaosu walked through the gate with Yang Xiaojin.
Behind the door of the key is the fragrance of birds and flowers. Ren Xiaosu looked around silently, but suddenly realized that he seemed to have never seen this place before, but Yang Xiaojin was standing in this courtyard, a little ecstatic.
Ren Xiaosu felt a little sad in his heart. It turned out that the place the other party wanted to go most was different from his own.
He secretly smiled bitterly, perhaps this was an answer.
But it doesn't matter, everyone has the freedom to choose, doesn't it?
At this time, Ren Xiaosu suddenly felt a little dumbfounded to himself, when did he worry about gains and losses so much?
Ren Xiaosu asked curiously, "Where is this?"
"This is Wall 88, my former home," Yang Xiaojin said, "Yang's Manor."
Nearly half of this manor was destroyed by Li's nano warriors, but it was unexpectedly rebuilt after more than a year.
Yang Xiaojin said with a smile, "I don't know who the person who rebuilt it was, but most of the buildings in this Yang's manor were preserved. It looks familiar and unfamiliar. It feels a bit strange."
After speaking, Yang Xiaojin walked straight into the garden, she came to a swing and said to Ren Xiaosu: "When I was a child, my father and mother would bring me here to play for a while after dinner. I would sit on the swing and my father would push me. back, and my mother would stand by smiling."
Ren Xiaosu didn't say anything, only listened to Yang Xiaojin continue: "They are not the same as the Yang family, my father didn't particularly value Yang's power, so he never fought or robbed him, but my grandfather liked him the most and always wanted to give him the power of the Yang family. The Yang family was handed over to him. Sometimes I think, if he hadn't been born in the Yang family, he might not have suffered an accident, right?"
"Do you think the death of your parents was a conspiracy?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"Not sure," Yang Xiaojin said, "I have investigated myself, but I have no clue, but now the entire Yang family is gone, even if someone murdered, the murderer is already dead."
While they were talking, two people in uniform in the manor ran over quickly, holding flashlights in their hands.
Yang Xiaojin said: "I don't have a gun, I'm not a member of the Military and Order Department."
The two rushed over and shouted, "Who are you, why did you break into the museum late at night?!"
Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin looked at each other and were speechless. The Qing family actually built a museum here? !
After learning the truth, Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin didn't stay too much, but escaped directly from Yang's Manor.
With the physical qualities of the two of them, how could ordinary security guards catch up?
The two fled to the street and smiled at each other. The two legendary transcendents were chased by two security guards, and it seemed a little bittersweet...
"Let's go, I'll take you to eat, I hope those small shops are still there," Yang Xiaojin said.
...
At 9 o'clock at night, on the road of No. 88 Barrier Headquarters, in a small shop called Lin Jie Han Baozipu, an old lady was wiping the table with a tired look, and she was still thinking about how much she made today. money.
The shop was about to close, but just as the old lady wiped her hands with a towel and was about to close the shop, Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin walked in.
"It's time to rest," the old lady smiled. "You guys go to another house to see... Xiaojin?"
"Grandma Lin," Yang Xiaojin said crisply, "I want to eat Korean buns and Dandan noodles."
"Yes!" The old lady was a little surprised: "Wait a minute, I'll make it for you. The noodles and stuffing are ready-made, so you don't have to wait too long."
While speaking, the old lady couldn't help but looked at Ren Xiaosu with a scrutiny in her eyes, which made Ren Xiaosu look a little embarrassed.
It was obvious that there were no steamed buns in the store. The old lady packed them on the spot and put them in a drawer for steaming, and Yang Xiaojin didn't show any kindness to the old lady.
At a certain moment, Ren Xiaosu felt that this old lady really looked like Yang Xiaojin's grandmother.
"Do you know each other?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"Well, my parents often brought me here to eat when I was young," Yang Xiaojin said. "When my grandfather was still there, there was a rule that Yang's dinner only had clear porridge and pickles, and he couldn't eat too much. Grandpa said that it was impossible to manage. People with good appetite are not qualified to run a consortium."
"So strict?" Ren Xiaosu was stunned. While he was still trying to find food, everyone was already on a diet.
Yang Xiaojin smiled and said, "It's really strict. My uncles and aunts often complain to grandpa about this, but my father doesn't complain, but secretly brings me and my mother out for snacks. This is where we come most often. The place, my father said, he had this store when he was a child, and Sister Lin at that time has become Grandma Lin now."
"Has this store been open for decades? It's amazing," Ren Xiaosu said.
As a result, Grandma Lin, who was making buns inside, smiled and said, "What's so amazing about this."
"Of course it's very powerful," Ren Xiaosu said earnestly, "Mr. Zhang told me that if a person can do one thing well in his life, he is already an amazing person, and most people can't do this in their lifetime. "
Grandma Lin smiled and said to Yang Xiaojin, "This guy is quite good at talking. Did he coax you into this?"
Grandma Lin's eyes were so bright that she could see the relationship between Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin at once.
Yang Xiaojin did not refute, but Ren Xiaosu noticed that the other party's head was slightly lowered, and he seemed to be thinking about things again.
"What are you thinking about?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
Yang Xiaojin suddenly said seriously: "You don't need to call her Grandma Lin, she is younger than you."
Ren Xiaosu: "???"
You've been thinking about this for a long time? !
Grandma Lin in the kitchen laughed: "Xiaojin, what are you talking about, I'm in my 70s and 80s, how could he be older than me? Could it be that he is 100 years old?"
Yang Xiaojin corrected seriously: "Let's talk less."
In the kitchen, Grandma Lin smiled happily: "I was quite tired, but when you came, I felt like all my troubles were gone."
Ren Xiaosu was fascinated at the time, what was this all about... Does this girl in a peaked cap really care about her age?
The steaming buns were quickly brought to the table, and Yang Xiaojin asked Grandma Lin while eating, "How have you been recently."
"It's good," Grandma Lin said with a smile. "The neighbors were quite worried when the war was going on. They all said that everyone was going to flee. After the reunification of the Northwest, some people said that they wanted to flee to the Northwest. As a result, the Qing family came. In the future, the security in the fortress will be better than before, and the taxes will be lower.”
"That's good," Yang Xiaojin nodded.
At this time, Grandma Lin stopped talking: "However, you Yang family... Xiao Jin, you..."
Yang Xiaojin laughed: "Grandma Lin doesn't have to worry about me, my aunt is fine too."
"That's fine, that's fine," said Grandma Lin.
When Ren Xiaosu and the others were eating, Grandma Lin was beside her, thinking about the neighbor's briquettes not being placed properly all day long, and they kept getting coal dust all over the place.
But the neighbors are very nice, and sometimes they help her carry things, and even bring her some beef patties that are facing the street.
She is old, and her teeth can't bite the beef patty anymore.
Listening to these broken thoughts, Ren Xiaosu seemed to be pulled back into a warm life from the previous tense wizard war.
After coming out of the steamed bun shop, Ren Xiaosu was curious: "Where's Grandma Lin's family?"
"Her son was killed in the battle between Yang's and Li's, and the daughter-in-law took the child with others," Yang Xiaojin said.
Ren Xiaosu looked back at the bun shop, where Grandma Lin was struggling to arrange all the chairs.
The harm that war does to people is not just the passing of life during the war.
It can fall on people's hearts in the form of a scar, and then bring decades-long labor pains to an entire generation of families.
"Where are we going now?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"Let's find a place to live," Yang Xiaojin said, "I'll take you to visit Fort 88 tomorrow."
Ren Xiaosu thought for a while and suddenly asked, "Do you have something on your mind?"
Yang Xiaojin said calmly, "You can stay with me for a few days before talking about it."
Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a moment, with complicated emotions intertwined in his heart, while Yang Xiaojin turned and walked in the other direction, the corners of his mouth under the peaked cap slightly upturned.
