Chapter 42 Curious

The heavy eyelids fluttered with butterfly-like eyelashes and struggled to open, but this butterfly with delicate long wings was still unable to resist the attack of the storm, and finally closed without moving.

Shang Zipei only felt a little dizzy in his mind, and his whole body seemed to have been hit by a huge wave. He moved his slightly curved fingers. Although he was sure that the bones were not damaged, the pain felt like a bone fracture all over his body. The feeling is almost the same.

Breathing evenly, she seemed to be accumulating strength for her tired body. She could feel her puffy body swaying slightly under the slap of water, but she could only choose to obey, but the cold feeling made her never My heart trembled uncontrollably.

If it wasn't for her good health, she might have been frozen to death by the bone-piercing water if she hadn't been drowned by the ferocious water.

Such a way of death is the most unjust way to make people die.

"Pepe, wake up, Pepe..."

The sweet but not greasy voice permeates innocence, and the gentle and soft voice that is used to talk sweet words will definitely make people addicted to it, and such a voice rang in Shang Zipei's ears, and she still has a keen sense Moist breath from the pinna.

Shang Zipei's brows trembled, and his heart was very irritable. He didn't need to listen much to know who it was. Who else could have such a coquettish voice besides Concubine Bai Yu?If you want to call it so disgusting, I don't know her very well.

After a while, Xu Shi was so cold that he couldn't bear it any longer, but when he opened his eyes, he saw a pair of fox eyes that captivated the soul. The black pupils condensed a strong aura, as if they had been cultivated to perfection. , a head of black wet hair could not conceal the disastrous face of the country and the people.

"Hey, are you willing to wake up?" Concubine Bai Yu knelt beside Shang Zipei, holding the little wolf who was trembling with wetness in her hands, tilting her head and looking at Shang Zipei with a smile.

"Mmm..." Shang Zipei braced himself up and wanted to sit up, but he had more energy than he wanted. Finally, with the support of Concubine Bai Yu, he leaned against the wall in front of him, and responded with a slightly hoarse voice. "Where are we now?"

The surrounding environment is extremely dim, but it has not reached the point where the figure cannot be seen. Although there is no color, but the face can be seen clearly recently, unlike the small room full of corpses, it is just the same color system .

At this time, they were living on a small stone against the wall. The stone was only as big as a single bed. Half of the stone stopped the water flow that was no longer docile and violent, and her place was like a castle. An isolated island stands in the sea.

Concubine Bai Yu pondered for a while, then said, "In the tomb..."

"Nonsense..." Xu was out of breath at Concubine Bai Yu's words. She rubbed her already dry throat, and the pain caused her to cough violently. She was slightly weak as she covered her mouth and nose with her left hand. After she stopped, she relaxed for a while. said, "Where are we now in the tomb?"

Concubine Bai Yu looked around for a long time in the dark, then she turned to Shang Zipei, blinked and said, "It should be outside the master's tomb."

"..." Shang Zipei decided not to focus on this question anymore, and looked around for a while. Although he had guessed it, he still couldn't help asking, "The others broke up with us?"

Concubine Bai Yu shrugged. Although she didn't speak, Shang Zipei knew it well, but she wondered why she and Concubine Bai Yu were sent to the same place?

Boom, it's not an exaggerated usage, it was indeed brought together. Shang Zipei still had lingering fears when he remembered just now. At that time, several people were in a daze, because they were in a square box with no walls on all sides, but it was just a coincidence. Their only way out was blocked again. At this time, when they were frowning, there were bursts of faint explosions in their ears. Tension, I'm afraid she can't hear such a weak sound.

But at this time, whoever touched the mechanism, the right wall was instantly retracted, maybe the right wall was facing the bottom of a lake, this is the ingenious design, and Shang Zipei, the first wave of uninvited guests, just tasted the power , this impermeable room is not big, even if water pours in, the lake will not disappear suddenly, which is suspicious, and it will not destroy the tomb either.

Coincidentally, as the water poured in, everyone was attracted by an explosion on the table wall before they had time to react. However, it was because Shang Zipei had lost consciousness, so he was only a little weak until now. wake up.

While rejoicing that she survived, she couldn't help worrying about the safety of others. It wasn't that she was kind, but that she didn't want others to sacrifice because of her choice. She couldn't afford such a favor.

"Is it okay?" Concubine Bai Yu lazily stretched her waist and got up, picked up the little wolf, and looked down at Shang Zipei with her willow waist upright, not as if she was asking but as an order: " If possible, let's go first and find them!"

Shang Zipei was taken aback for a moment, although his whole body was very dark, but he could see clearly that the water was rolling with yellow sand and churning, and he couldn't see the bottom clearly, so it seemed to be very deep, so how should he find them?swim past...

"But……"

Just because of the ferocity just now, it wouldn't be a small river, at least a lake, so she wouldn't say that she is a landlubber who can't swim and is afraid of water, so she planned to make up a lie.

But before Shang Zipei could say the following words, Concubine Bai Yu stepped into the water with one foot, and the water level reached her...ankle...

What the hell, is her mother cheating on her father?

Are you sure you're not teasing her?What about the lake?Say good at least too much?What about the good old man?How big is this tomb?Shang Zipei felt really powerless to complain for a while.

Only now did Concubine Bai Yu hear the word "but" on Shang Zipei, and when she turned around, she saw her tucked her knees in a daze and looked at her in a daze, and said, "But what?"

"It's nothing."

Fortunately, Shang Zipei was careful, he bought a waterproof backpack before departure, and the things were still usable, but most of the things in Concubine Bai Yu's backpack were scrapped, and Shang Zipei picked some that were still usable The things on the table and Concubine Bai chose the same direction and set off.

Shang Zipei took out the flashlight from his backpack and illuminated the road ahead, while Concubine Bai Yu took care of the little wolf for Shang Zipei, but the little wolf looked heartless and drowsy.

"Be careful, this is probably the tomb of a certain patriarch of the cannibal clan. The bloody and hostile atmosphere inside is too fierce, and there is no guarantee that the corpse will not change." Concubine Bai Yu walked lightly behind Shang Zipei kindly reminding, I'm too worldly, so I won't be intimidated by this.

Although Shang Zipei is an atheist who firmly believes in Marxism, the world at this time is too weird and deviant, and there are too many things that science cannot explain, which makes her doubt her own worldview.

But she didn't speak, but continued walking, her feet wading in the cold water, coupled with this somewhat terrifying environment and Bai Yufei's words, Shang Zipei's own skin had unconsciously turned a layer Goosebumps, trembling from the frightening environment at this moment, and the two were silent because of the vigilant atmosphere.

With a flashlight in his left hand and a Swiss Army Knife stacked on top of his right hand, Shang Zipei, who was so tight that he was almost stiff, was breathing rapidly, squatting slightly, taking every step carefully.

There is nothing more debilitating than mental dread...

"Relax." Concubine Bai Yu put her hand on Shang Zipei's shoulder, and when Shang Zipei's tense body was relieved, she put down her hand with a smile, and comforted again: "I know that The environment is very depressing, and everything that happened before is indeed frightening, but you will only get yourself into a predicament of your own making."

Shang Zipei was shocked when he was slapped by Concubine Bai Yu, and before his expression could change, he looked at Concubine Bai Yu with a terrified expression. If he was not conscious, he might have just passed by with a knife.

Shang Zipei took a deep breath to even out her disordered breathing. Concubine Bai Yu's words were like a twig she grabbed when she fell into the abyss. At the same time, it made Shang Zipei see the gap between herself and Concubine Bai Yu. Her character still needs to be honed, and her impression of her has improved a bit.

"Thank you!" Shang Zipei said in the void, and then continued to move forward.

Concubine Bai Yu looked at the child who was awkward even in thanking her, but accepted the thank you very humbly, shrugging her shoulders noncommittally.

A person who seems stable and cold may not be able to remain the same. A person who seems to be frivolous and unprincipled may be a calm and self-sustaining person. What you see on the surface is just a disguise, to cover up the part you don't want to be seen by others.

Concubine Bai Yu saw that Shang Zipei didn't show any signs of speaking for a long time, and she was just a dull gourd. She couldn't bear the loneliness, so she had to speak first: "Your surname is Shang, and you belong to a merchant in the capital?"

"Ah."

Concubine Bai Yu raised her eyebrows, pursed her lips, her squinted eyes could not reveal the slightest emotion, although she is not a self-righteous person who thinks that she will be loved by everyone, but she is not so ignorant, right? ?In any case, no matter who she is in the capital, she can talk to herself, this student is really special.

Of course, it doesn't rule out using this method to get close to her, no matter whether she is deliberately trying to attract her attention, in short, she has successfully aroused her curiosity...

It is said that curiosity is the foundation of falling in love with someone, because curiosity can't help but to understand, because understanding the distance between two people will shorten the distance between the two, and the original relationship will deteriorate after the distance is drawn, so it is not a routine for idol dramas. It doesn't make sense.

Concubine Bai Yu didn't realize that the dog-blood dramas of soap operas that she always laughed off were just right for her, but she, who was always shrewd, didn't think about her momentary carelessness this time.

"The merchant is one of the four major families. You came out of the Cute Pet Academy. You can say that you have a bright future, little pet master." Concubine Bai Yu didn't go to see Shang Zipei, but said to herself, He still didn't forget to make a joke: "Don't forget me when you become famous in the future."

The corners of Shang Zipei's lips curved slightly sarcasticly, but he said calmly, "I'm a side branch."

Shang Zipei didn't intend to hide his disgraceful identity in the eyes of outsiders. Maybe this identity would make people feel intimidated in a small place like the whole city, but in a big city like the capital, this title is contemptuous Status, because they are not pure nobles.

Those high-ranking nobles who pretend to be noble even call the side branches "donkeys", because they often describe themselves as horses, horses with noble bloodlines, and the side branches are an insult to their blood in their eyes, and they are different from her lowly ordinary people. The product of the combination, over time, directly replaced the name of the side branch with donkey.

And the side branches are also discriminated against in the capital.

Concubine Bai Yu's stroking of the little wolf stopped indistinctly for a moment, and soon returned to normal, but her eyes full of light did not reveal the slightest emotion.

Concubine Bai Yu said, "Don't you like this identity?"

Shang Zipei was noncommittal: "I don't like this identity."

Concubine Bai Yu nodded a little bit, and said with a smile: "It's normal to have this kind of thought. You are not weak in spirit, and it won't be difficult to enter the family. Try to apply."

Shang Zipei cast a glance at Concubine Bai Yu, seeing that she had misunderstood him, he shook his head: "The identity I don't like is that I am a merchant, not a side branch."

Concubine Bai Yu was surprised and looked at Shang Zipei. If it was the former, Concubine Bai Yu would take it for granted. After all, no one likes being looked at with strange eyes. Concubine Bai Yu couldn't understand, but the latter made her feel Concubine Bai Yu couldn't figure it out, after all, the merchant is not a small family.

"The family is sinister, and it's not as comfortable as ordinary people. I can't adapt to the communication life where you come and go." Shang Zipei said again: "That's the second thing. The main reason is that the merchants don't welcome me. I don’t want to put a hot face on a cold ass, since that day I walked out of the store, I am me, and the store is the store.”

Although Concubine Bai Yu didn't know what happened to Shang Zipei, she was not a nosy person, but she couldn't agree with Shang Zipei's idea of ​​leaving the family. In her eyes, the family was everything, no matter what happened They are all based on the family, and the clansmen will not leave the family even if they die, otherwise it will be betrayal in her eyes.

Concubine Bai Yu's beautiful eyebrows, which had been stretched and blooming all the time, were now folded layer by layer. She looked meaningfully at Shang Zipei who was concentrating on penetrating, and said, "Do you know what family responsibility is?"

At this time, Concubine Bai Yu's tone was not as charming as usual, she was a little unhappy at this time, she wanted to draw back the girl who had gone astray.

Shang Zipei said: "I have a sense of responsibility, but I don't have the sense of family responsibility you mentioned. You high-ranking people always like to talk about these things, but I am not interested in them."

"Why?" Concubine Bai Yu was slightly annoyed. She is a docile person, and her identity does not allow her emotions to guide her behavior and let others see her next decision, so she will always have a Smiling cat emoticon.

There are really few things that can make her angry, but the sense of family responsibility in her mouth is her Ni Lin, and Shang Zipei even said that she has no interest in the matter she said.

Okay, Shang Zipei, you are doing well, if you can't give me a reasonable explanation...

"Because there are only a few superiors in the family, and one of their decisions often determines the life and death of many people, and there is a purpose in doing so, and people like him are willing to take life and death, I don't believe it is an act of dedication without purpose. Shang Zipei concluded: "The superiors work for the family to use the family to get him to satisfy his various desires, money or power, while the members of the family work for the family, but also for their own selfish desires."

"The so-called sense of family responsibility is just to use each other, just to get what you want. Of course, there are a few loyal martyrs, but in the face of greedy humans, there are few." Shang Zipei felt a little With wet hair, he said again: "I don't even know why something impure like this is called a sense of responsibility."

In Shang Zipei's eyes, the so-called family is a lunatic directing a group of idiots to do something meaningful to them, and then each gets what they need. Shang Zipei's thinking is still stuck in her era after all, so Many people can't understand her values.

Concubine Bai Yu still wanted to say something, but she opened her mouth and didn't continue. She found that she was speechless. Wouldn't it be useful to apply Shang Zipei's words to herself?

She is dedicated to running around for the family, and to outsiders, she looks like a loyal and brainwashed person in Shang Zipei's mouth. She has always told herself that, if she tells too many lies, she herself thinks it is true That's right, and she finally knew why she reacted so violently when others questioned her family's sense of responsibility, because she was afraid that her hypocrisy would be exposed.

At this time, Shang Zipei's words were like a ray of sunshine in a foggy sky, giving her a kind of clarity to see the blue sky through the clouds and mist. Isn't her goal one day to sit in the position of Patriarch and be able to control her own life, After being paralyzed for a long time, I even forgot my true heart, and almost sold myself to the family through self-hypnosis...

At the same time, Concubine Bai Yu was surprised that Shang Zipei was able to see through this at a young age. After all, Shang Zipei's insights and what she just said were not what she should have at her age, which made her The curiosity can't help but grow stronger.

Concubine Bai Yu, who was thinking, made the atmosphere drop to freezing point for a while, and at the same time, the quiet atmosphere caused Shang Zipei to hear the sound of running water, which was not far away, in order to hear it more clearly. Shang Zipei reached out his hand to stop Concubine Bai Yu's progress, and stopped herself. On top of the sound of running water, she heard a low roar, which was enough to make people tremble in this quiet and gloomy atmosphere.

Shang Zipei looked for his reputation, and saw a pair of dark green eyes in a dark corner...
