[Gu Jian III] The Days I Worked in Xuanyuan Hill

When I woke up, the first thing I saw was a sky full of stars.

It's like being in the wild, with the temperature of the campfire and the sound of crackling around, and the sound of insects in the distance.There seemed to be something on the grass, soft and warm.I stared blankly at the bright galaxy directly above, my mind was broken and I didn't want to turn.

"woke up?"

A hand stretched out from the side, covered my forehead skillfully, and retracted it in two seconds. The man continued: "Don't worry, it's a short-term aftereffect. The temperature has subsided. When you are obedient, I will let you You move."

I took a deep breath: "Wu Yan, I want to go to the bathroom."

"..."

"Extremely urgent, the 4000-year-old old 'beep--'"

"..."

"If you don't let me move, I'm going to pee on your cape."

He was only silent for a second, then he took out his flute and played a song for the toilet.

I stood up calmly, dusted off my gorgeous Xiling-style animal fur coat, and then went to the grass in the distance to solve my physical problems.

I didn't lie, I was really anxious, and I even suspected that I was awakened by suffocation.Although I felt a little awkward to liberate myself after waking up after 4000 years of death, I still overcame my psychological shadow and completed this project.

I just ran into a little trouble at the end.

I grabbed the end of the waistband with my only right hand and fell into deep thought.

In the ancient times when there were no elastic bands, as we all know, as long as you want to wear fat and elegant people, you can only use the waistband to fix it.

But, can anyone tell me how a disabled person with only one hand can complete the one-handed knotting action?

I first tried to tie it with five fingers, but it may be due to the rigors that have occurred over the years, and my fingers cannot support this action.Then I had an idea and wanted to tie my trouser belt with my teeth and hands. However, after bending for a long time, I found that my flexibility could not meet the duty of upper mouth to lower mouth.

I was in a daze and tangled up holding my pants with one hand.

After 5 minutes, I tentatively called: "Jijiu?"

"Jijiu is not here." Wu Yan's voice came from not far away calmly, "You don't want to collude with it. 4000 years ago...heh."

"...No, I just want it to do a little favor. If it's not here, maybe I can only wrong you..."

"Ok?"

I shook the belt on my hand: "Well, can you help me tie my belt?"

silence.

"I know you don't want to, but I don't want to bother you either... Forget it, anyway, you closed your eyes, so it's okay if I go back naked..."

He walked over quickly and cooperated with me to complete the knotting action with a blank face.

So sensitive that I almost thought he often trained one-handed movements.

I finally sat back by the campfire again.I thought he was going to play the flute to control me, but to my surprise he didn't.

He was sitting across from him, and the firelight flickered on his pale face, giving me the illusion that he was still alive.

... That's right, Wu Yan is no longer a living person.

I thought of the plot in the game—the resentful souls who came back to life with the belief in revenge actually just used the resurrection technique of the witch clan.He is not dead, nor is he alive, but is imprisoned in this dead body by spiritual power, and his soul is enduring great pain all the time.

Resurrection is not a gift to him, it is the kingdom of witches' punishment for the criminals who committed the most serious crimes.

"Where is my left hand?" I asked.

"I don't know." His voice was a bit stiff, "I didn't find it in Luanyu Mountain."

I recalled the scene at that time, and to me, it was only a dozen days ago.Even in the midst of chaos, I still remember that the Primordial Demon suddenly went berserk, its tentacles broke my shoulder, and then I saw my left hand fall into that lake...

"It's fine if you can't find it." I said indifferently, "It's more troublesome to go to the toilet at most. I can change the waistband of my trousers. It's not impossible."

Wu Yan suddenly let out a short laugh.

"You are always like this. You don't care if you have a broken arm, and you don't care if you are born or die. In your eyes, this world seems to be nothing."

The face that was even paler than it was 4000 years ago looked at me quietly: "Is there anything you care about?"

"..."

"Is it Jinyun? Do you want to know what he did after you died?"

I get it... But I'm not a troublemaker in the game, so maybe in this parallel world, the plot will be different?

So I said honestly, "I want to know."

This time he paused for a long time, as if sorting out his words.

"When I was in Luanyu Mountain, the demons attacked Xiling. Leizu closed the city to fight to the death, and the Taotie's support was useless, and Jinyun was sent by Ji Xuanyuan to Jilong Sanyi, so he didn't come to you. I didn't go to Xiling in the first place either. By the time I return with your body, Xiling City has been slaughtered by demons."

I said "ah".

"I turned against Xuanyuanqiu and slaughtered the demons and Xuanyuanqiu's followers everywhere. Later, Hou Zhai betrayed me, and Jinyun and Jinyun used all the soldiers of the Taotie tribe as bait to surround and kill me. Jinyun cut off my head."

"The remnants of the Wuzhitang built a soul sanctuary according to my previous request, buried me here, and waited for my return one day in the future."

A long and tragic story, he told it calmly like an academic report.His expression and tone didn't fluctuate throughout the whole process, as if he was telling another person's story.Objective and fair.

His voice fell for a long time, and I kept my head down and picked my fingers.

What should I say...

This plot is the same as before, probably just that besides the destruction of Xiling City, I also died.Everyone has their own suffering, everyone has betrayed each other, but everyone is so miserable and helpless.

After thinking for a long time, I said, "Do you know where Jinyun's body is buried? I want to go and see."

"...You, don't you hate him?"

"...Maybe, a little bit?" I lowered my head and rubbed my fingers again, then raised my head slowly, "But after thinking about it, he can't do anything about it. I'm just one person here, isn't there someone from Xiling? Did someone go there? He just obeyed the orders of the leader... Besides, you said that he arrived 'not in a timely manner', that is to say, he did his best. If you want to blame, blame the devil... "

boom--

Before I finished speaking, a stone next to Wu Yan suddenly exploded into pieces.A few pieces of rubble were smashed into the bonfire, and in the splashing sparks, Wu Zhi's face was gloomy, as if he had just been resurrected in the nameless land.

"Don't blame him? If he cares about you and Xiling, he should have arrived as soon as possible. I have spent so many years opening the passage to the Demon Realm for him, and using the witch clan's healing techniques to heal his injuries. You too... Ke Ji Xuanyuan and him chose Jilong, why don't you hate him? Why don't you hate him?"

He looked as if he had been betrayed again, his whole person was no longer calm, and there was deep hatred and madness in his expression.

I stared at him blankly, and after a long time, I slowly let out a breath.

my fault.

I looked at him from the perspective of God who had just finished the plot. In the game, Wu Yan was perverted and crazy, but his hatred was unbearable. With an indomitable determination to move forward, he implemented his plan rationally step by step.

But he is human after all.

In his view, I am a victim with him, and I should have the same feelings as him, so he still treats me with the same kindness as before, and may even want to chew up the bitterness that has been in his heart for these years The hatred was uttered to me, and the pain he suffered was poured out to me.

"Wu Yan, I told you before, I come from another world, right?"

He looked at me silently.

"Actually, this alien world is the future more than 1000 years from now. In my world, human development is already very advanced. We can even reach the moon, move mountains and fill seas, all of which can be achieved by human strength."

I put my right hand on my knee and said calmly in words he could understand: "However, in that era, once an epidemic broke out. Within a few days, tens of thousands of people were infected, and the infected people It was passed on to healthy people, as if overnight, and suddenly the whole country was at risk of falling."

"We have taken a lot of measures, sealing off the city, isolating, and many, many doctors... that is, the witch doctor of Xuanyuanqiu, they left the safe place and ran towards the most dangerous epidemic area. Some couples went together, and some The husband is a soldier and the wife is a witch doctor, and they separated without complaint and rushed to the front line."

"Some people died on the front line. Her partner was still far away, also engaged in the work of treating others, and she didn't see her wife until she died."

I stared at him: "Who do you think she should hate?"

"Hate a partner who is thousands of miles away, or a tribe that sent her to the front line?"

"You're trying to convince me with this?"

"I don't want to convince you that you have what you think and I don't have any power to change it," I said, "I'm just telling you this. I was born 1000 years later...no, for you, it should be 5000 years later. I am a descendant of Ji Xuanyuan and Leizu. My ancestors, they have experienced many battles that are much more difficult than this epidemic, and even almost perished several times. However, because there are many people like Jinyun and Leizu People, we come alive again and again, develop and grow."

Wu Yan was silent for a long time before he said, "What does this have to do with me?"

"It has nothing to do with you." I shrugged. "I just want to say that the choice Lei Zu made may have nothing to do with you. Whatever you want to do, don't drag Lei Zu and Xiling, right?"

This was quite offensive, and I was even ready for him to beat me up.But to my surprise, Wu Yan didn't do anything.

He just huddled gloomy in the shadow of the campfire, like a poisonous mushroom that grows after the rain, the kind that makes little people dance before your eyes.

I saw that he hadn't moved for a long time, and felt relieved and boldly stretched his hands and feet again and began to pick his hands.I'm not worried that Wu Zong will kill me. He put me into the Nameless Land with all his heart and soul, and even painted a tattoo on my body. If he wanted to kill me easily, he wouldn't wait until now.

I even started to ask him boldly: "What do you want me to do by your side? Let me tell you first, no matter what you do, if I see something that is not pleasing to the eye, I will probably spare no effort to make trouble for you. Don't look at it." You can control me now, but there will always be..."

"You go."

"……what?"

I stared at him with wide eyes, wondering for a moment that I had heard wrong.

"Let's go, go where you want to go." He said indifferently, "Your affairs have nothing to do with me, so don't interfere with what I want to do."

"Ah? Oh...oh." I replied a few times with some uncertainty, stood up and took two steps tentatively, seeing that he was still sitting there, I simply started trotting.

After running for a long distance, the tattoos on my body didn't mean to pull me back. Only then did I really realize that Wu Xi really didn't care about me.

For a time, the sky and the earth are big!

It's like a weekend when my parents are working overtime, I really want to celebrate with a game party at home!Holding my beating heart, I ran towards the outside of the woods with light steps.It's just that I didn't take two steps, so I turned around and ran back towards Wu Yan.

He was the same as when I left, sitting motionless by the campfire.Hearing the movement, he raised his head and looked over.

"Why didn't you leave?"

"Well, can I ask a little question?" I scratched my head a little embarrassedly, "Do you know where Luanyu Mountain is going?"

Wu Yan: "..."

"You don't want to look at me with that expression... It's true that I died there, but Zhao Ye took me there at that time. It's been so long, and there is no map, I am also very distressed..."
