[Grave Raiders Notes bg] Lost Notes 2: Heavy Fate

The famous scene in the movie is always accompanied by a heavy rain.

Therefore, when Nan Xing escaped from the Medog Archives, God rewarded her with an enhanced version of sleet in order to meet the occasion.

It's just that it wasn't as hearty as in the movie at all, but it made her have a high fever after not knowing what it's like to be sick for a long time.

Even with a high fever, he still dare not stay for a while.

The turbulent situation in the colonized state, although the transportation is difficult, it also provides cover for the southern star to hide its whereabouts.

After nearly a month of tossing and turning, Nanxing finally arrived in the northeast.

On this day, Nan Xing was sitting in the inn room with a telegram she had just intercepted on the table.Long before the British colonists laid the telegraph, the Zhang family already had its own telegraph system, and extracted a set of Zhang family's electrical codes on the basis of the Zhang family's password extraction system.

During his three years in Medog, Nan Xing already knew the Zhang family's telegraph system like the back of his hand.

The newly intercepted telegram on the table is very simple:

The truth about the Holy Child has been revealed.

It's still a step late...

After all, Zhang Qiling fell into the fate of falling into the altar and being spurned by the Zhang family.

Nan Xing clutched the telegram in his hand, almost crushing the paper.

She sat motionless for a long time, until the telegram in her hand was soaked in the sweat of her palms, she finally moved her eyes, looked up at the ceiling for a long time, and raised her hand to cover her eyes.

For the past three years, she has been thinking about what would happen if she took Zhang Qiling away in the Snow Mountain three years ago without considering Dong Qingzhong's safety.

At that time, no one else would know her. She only needed to avoid the time when the Zhang family needed a substitute for the Holy Infant. No one would care about the life or death of a child born to a foreign race.

Perhaps, from now on, Zhang Qiling will be able to have a completely different life, and no longer have to shoulder those missions that no one wants to shoulder.

Every time he thought of this, Nan Xing would forcibly stop his thoughts.If she really did this, would it make him bear a new psychological burden in the future: she gave up Dong Qingzhong's life in order to save him.

Nan Xing lit the telegram in his hand and burned it to ashes.

At least, she still has a chance to work hard to protect him, even if she can shine a faint ray of light into his youth shrouded in haze and darkness, that's fine.

She pinched the center of her eyebrows and heard a sound coming from the lobby of the inn.

Someone is coming towards her room.

"Zhang Nanxing," the door opened, and a familiar woman's voice came in, "Aren't you going to hide?"

Dong Qiu, she was the one who found her the soonest.

"I'm waiting for you," Nan Xing clasped his hands, looked at Dong Qiu at the door, and said calmly, "Take me back to my home."

-

The truth about the Holy Infant has been exposed by the Wang family, and the existence of Nan Xing is no longer a hidden danger to the Zhang family.

But it doesn't mean that she can live a peaceful life in the Zhang family.

A girl of unknown origin, who has nothing to do with Changsheng's lies, her situation is not much better than Zhang Qiling's.

Because of the rare unicorn blood in the family, she could predict that after she returned to her family, she would be adopted on the surface, but secretly she was just a blood collection tool.

"I have a condition." Nan Xing looked at Dong Qiu and said.

"Do you think you are still qualified to negotiate terms?" Dong Qiu was a little impatient.

"Since I can escape once in front of your eyes, I can escape the second time." Nan Xing picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup.

"You think I'll believe it?"

"You can try."

Dong Qiu looked at Nan Xing, his leisurely and contented appearance made her feel restless.

She has a confident look, and she doesn't show any timidity.

After a while of silence, Dong Qiu asked, "Tell me, what's the condition?"

"Arrange me to be adopted by that child's adoptive father." Nan Xing put down his teacup and looked up at Dong Qiu.

-

Dong Qiu took Nan Xing back to his home.

Everyone regards Nan Xing as garbage associated with scandals and avoids it.Only one man came forward and said that he was willing to adopt her.

Because a few days ago, he received a map with an ancient tomb in the shape of a scorpion drawn on it.The paper used for maps is the type commonly used in the Medog Archives.

Nan Xing followed the man back home.

On that day, she finally saw the young Zhang Qiling again.

The man led Nan Xing to the other adopted children of the Zhang family and said, "This is your new sister, Zhang Nan Xing."

Then the man left.

These Zhang family children obviously also knew the relationship between Zhang Nanxing and Changsheng Lie, and they all looked at her with curiosity and contempt.

Nan Xing has no time to take care of these, her attention is always focused on Zhang Qiling in the corner.

He is completely different from other children, he is not curious, does not speak, just stands there quietly.

Four-year-old Zhang Qiling, although his facial features are still childish, but his handsome appearance is extremely outstanding even in the Zhang family with high appearance.

At this moment, someone squeezed past Zhang Qiling, he avoided it calmly, and when he raised his eyes again, he met Nan Xing's gaze.

The deep, dark eyes were calm and unruffled, as if nothing in the world was enough to cause a ripple in these eyes.

This is Nan Xing's all-too-familiar look.

She walked in front of him slowly, suppressed the ups and downs in her heart, and said calmly: "Hello, my name is Zhang Nanxing."

Zhang Qiling finally shifted his gaze to Nan Xing's face, looked at her silently, and did not speak.

The other children quickly exchanged glances, and then, one of the girls with twin ponytails said in a strange way: "One fool, one dumb, two pieces of trash, both smell similar."

Nan Xing Duan certainly wouldn't be as familiar with a child with no teeth, but she couldn't bear them to run on Zhang Qiling.

The adoptive father's footsteps sounded outside the door, and Nan Xing seemed to change his face, putting on a gentle and fragile expression on his face.

The moment her adoptive father entered, Nan Xing lay down on the ground.

A helpless tear came out of the corner of her eyes, and she was pitiful and aggrieved: "It's all my sister's fault. I didn't say hello to my sister first. If you want to blame me, you can blame me alone."

From the corner of the eye, I saw the adoptive father's face darken visibly.

He asked calmly, "What's going on?"

The other children had obviously never seen such a consummate white lotus rank, so they didn't react for a while.

Nan Xing struck while the iron was hot: "Father, my sister didn't do it on purpose, I accidentally fell."

"Yes, she fell it herself, and it has nothing to do with me!" The pair of ponytails were exasperated.

"Shut up! Don't think I don't know about your little tricks. It's fine in normal times. When Nan Xing just arrived, you can't wait to show your power?" The adoptive father's face was sullen, "Apologize soon."

"Father, I didn't push her, it's obviously her..."

"Apologize soon! Don't waste my time."

The two ponytails were defeated, and reluctantly hummed "I'm sorry."

Nan Xing replied pitifully: "It's okay, sister doesn't blame you."

"That's right, let's get along well in the future." After the adoptive father finished speaking, he walked away.

The pair of ponytails stared at Nan Xing with red eyes: "Zhang Nan Xing, just wait."

Nan Xing stood up and patted the ashes on his clothes: "Okay, I'll wait."

Looking back at Zhang Qiling, his expression was still calm, but his gaze was precisely on Nan Xing, as if he had been looking at it for a long time.

Nan Xing opened his mouth, and the "little brother" almost blurted out.

The words came to my lips, and finally changed to: "I don't know your name yet."

Zhang Qiling still didn't speak.

If you were an ordinary person, you would definitely give up.

But Nan Xing is not an ordinary person.

she,

Is the successor of socialism.

She completely ignored the other party's indifference: "It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, I'll just call you 'brother' from now on."

Zhang Qiling was noncommittal, just looking at the sky above the patio.

Nan Xing fully explored her chattering potential: "You can call me Nan Xing, of course, if you want, you can also call me Little Xing Xing~"

Zhang Qiling seemed to have listened to what she said. After she said "little star", his eyelashes trembled slightly.

Nan Xing quickly caught his micro-expression, and smiled contentedly: "You really are listening to me."

"Thank you." Zhang Qiling said suddenly.

Thanks?Thanks for what?Thank her for her ability to perform the prosperous white lotus just now?

"Thank you, we are grasshoppers on the same boat now." Nan Xing waved his hand.

Zhang Qiling looked at Nan Xing inexplicably.

Nan Xing hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's really not appropriate to describe it as a grasshopper. I'll change it later."

After thinking for a while, Nan Xing said with high spirits: "I figured it out, we are friends in a pair of pants now!"

Zhang Qiling turned around and left.

Nan Xing chased after him, persevering: "Too vulgar, isn't it? Then change to an elegant one, we have no clothes, and the relationship with Zi Tongpao!"

Zhang Qiling stopped.

Nan Xing chased after him.

He looked at her with fixed eyes: "Three years ago in the snow mountain, thank you."

It turned out that he was grateful for this.

On the contrary, Nan Xing didn't know how to answer.

Three years ago, she could have taken him away, so that he would not have to bear all this now.

This has always been a knot in her heart, and she blames herself until now.

But he just said, thank her.

Nan Xing fell into a sad, rare silence.

Absolute silence fell between the two.

The adoptive father's voice came from the other side of the yard, breaking the silence, and notified all the children that it was time for training, so go out and gather.

Zhang Qiling walked towards the courtyard, and when he passed Nan Xing, he said in a volume that Nan Xing could just hear: "You don't have to blame yourself."

Nan Xing was stunned, how did he know what she was thinking?
