true identity

The weather in Hanfeng Mountain gradually turned cold, and Zhao Yan often came to play with Zhao Ci with a black cat in her arms.The black cat is called Dabao, and it looks exactly like the one on her sachet.No matter how familiar this cat looked, it was not until Gongsun Ming woke him up that he realized that the cats that appeared in Ping An Inn and Miao Yinxuan were the same one.

Tao Tao said it was Gongsun Ming's pet.

Zhao Yan covered her mouth and added with a sneer: "There are also jade dragons."

Knowing that Yujiao was a snake, Zhao Ci got goosebumps all over his body. It was hard for him to imagine that Gongsun Ming, who was as quiet as a fairy in the world, would keep such a snake as a pet.

Fortunately, the weather was cold, and the lazy snake didn't like to visit Zhao Ci.

Zhao Yan and Tao Tao also tried to bring back Zhao Ci's memory, but after failing, they felt that it would be a good game to trick him in places he didn't know, and the two girls were so happy to tease him often.

Zhao Ci often looked helplessly at Gongsun Ming, who still had a little expectation when he smiled and watched.

I'm afraid I can only be disappointed.Zhao Ci scratched his head and thought so.

People's hearts are changeable, not to mention amnesia and forgetting.

The dream is clear and there is no trace, the sky is cool and autumn.Early in the morning, Zhao Ci came out of the room stretching his waist. After a few days of feeling, the conversation between Aunt Xiangye and him that night was digested in his heart. Go face Qin Ke.

The building is about to collapse, and the general situation is over. As the young master, all he can do is to protect Aunt Xiang and Zhao Yan, and then leave this place with Gongsun Ming.

The common people with flat heads are full of happiness if they eat enough and sleep well. Isn't it enough to raise troops to rebel?He didn't want to follow Qin Ke to death, and he didn't need to be lucky, he just hoped that those close to him would be safe and healthy.

The courtyard door knocked and a person came in, not Zhao Yan, but Gongsun Ming.

The gossip about the two of them instilled by everyone went around in his mind, and he suppressed his embarrassment and pretended to say hello nonchalantly: "Come to see me early in the morning, is there something good for you?"

Gongsun Ming walked over pretending not to care, but with a cautious expression on his face, he said carefully, "The scenery of Hanfeng Mountain is not limited to that of yesterday, Ah Ci, do you want to visit other places?"

Of course, Zhao Ci would not refuse such a good thing if he had a place to accompany him on a sightseeing tour.He immediately went back to add another coat, and followed Gongsun Mingqiu to swim.

Autumn is bright, cool and warm, and the breeze is as soft as silk gliding across the cheeks. The plump birds are not at all afraid to see strangers approaching. They jump up and down among the fallen leaves with clumsy steps to find food.

There is a quiet and serene atmosphere all over the mountains and plains, the wind moving the forest tops shows the meaning of singing in unison, the birds singing, the water moving the wind piercing the forest, any kind of sound can't help but fascinate people.

The gurgling sound of the water was getting louder and louder, until they both had to raise their voices to hear each other clearly, Zhao Ci realized something was wrong: "Where are we now?"

Gongsun Ming pushed aside a clump of branches in front of him, and the towering waterfall rolled into the rushing river, and the water splashed from a curtain of water curtain spread to the two people standing far away.Zhao Ci opened his palm and lifted it up, and after a while, his palm became wet.He said to Gongsun Ming with both surprise and joy: "There is a waterfall here!?"

Gongsun Ming pointed to the other end, just like the water vapor of the Milky Way falling nine days, drawing a shallow rainbow under the sunlight, hanging faintly on the bank of the river, the dreamlike scene made Zhao Ci exclaim in wonder.

"This is called Huangguoshu Waterfall."

Zhao Ci laughed loudly: "What the hell is that name? Could it be that this is Huangguoshu Mountain?" Zhao Ci knew that Huangguoshu Waterfall is the largest waterfall in China. The rest of the Zhao otaku don't know.I didn’t have a chance to see it in modern times, but I didn’t expect to see a “Huangguoshu Waterfall” in ancient times. Zhao Ci thought it was a bit funny because of the coincidence.

But Gongsun Ming said: "You took this. It used to be called Hantan." Gongsun Ming pointed to the water flowing under their feet.The water was turbulent, and the stones at the bottom of the river were polished round and delicate. The beautiful textures were clearly visible under the clear water surface. The waves hit dazzling colors, making Zhao Ci dizzy.

He couldn't get back to his senses all of a sudden: "I got it?" Obviously this waterfall and Huangguoshu Waterfall are incomparable, why did Zhao Ci choose this name before?

The momentum of the waterfall was like a galloping army and horses, and it was like a thunderous thunder. The huge sound filled Zhao Ci's chest and made him feel uncomfortable.

He asked in a daze, "Why?"

Gongsun Ming smiled: "Farewell to the old and welcome the new."

These words were like a heavy drum beating on his chest, causing him to repeat like a parrot: "Let's say goodbye to the old and welcome the new?"

Not wanting to talk about the topic, Gongsun Ming turned around and walked towards the waterfall.Zhao Ci watched helplessly as he swiftly walked behind the waterfall like a ghost, using his strength on a few strangely shaped stones, avoiding the force of the water.

Just disappeared?

Well, let this be a coincidence.

But—Zhao Ci opened his mouth wide and stepped forward: "What should I do?"

As soon as the words were finished, a hand was stretched out from behind the water curtain with a heart, and the slender fingers pointed to the several stones one by one, and finally hooked Zhao Ci and put it behind the waterfall.

Zhao Ci looked at the distance between the stones and the waterfall as high as a tall building, and broke out in a cold sweat: "Just kidding..." If you don't walk well, you will fall into the river, and if you don't calculate the distance, you will hit the waterfall. The same can make people vomit blood, the former is cold to internal injuries, and the latter is severely injured.

Zhao Ci said speechlessly: "It's fine if you don't want to say it, but don't tease me like this." He turned his head and walked away. After walking a few steps, a gust of wind suddenly came from behind him, and he subconsciously turned sideways to avoid it.Gongsun Ming didn't want to sneak attack him, instead he took his hand and pulled it into his arms, and rushed into the water curtain with his feet before Zhao Ci was dumbfounded and could react.

"Damn it!" The coolness on the face was like a bucket of water, but the coolness didn't get wet all over, just like flying into the spring rain, but the loud voice grabbed all the attention.

When their feet returned to the ground, they were already inside the waterfall.There is actually a cave here, and the sound of the waterfall instantly decreases when you enter it. In a slightly dark environment, the outer ground is wet and covered with moss, and the inside is unprecedentedly clean and tidy. A simple wooden table, with a cute mushroom growing on it, and a lamp standing next to the mushroom, the lamp wire is still there, and the lamp oil is slightly shallow.

There were two futons thrown beside the table, Gongsun Ming sat on one of them, and while lighting a lamp, he said to Zhao Ci, "This is the place you found."

Zhao Ci finally understood that Gongsun Ming wanted to recall his memory through old things and things.

However, this method obviously failed.

He smacked his lips, and sat down without saying good or bad: "What kind of person was I before?" Now that I'm here, I'll be fine, anyway, he can't go out alone, so why don't you discuss it with him.

"What you are now is what you were before." Gongsun Ming said.

Zhao Ci was a little surprised: "It hasn't changed..."

The lamp was as big as a bean, dimly lit up to illuminate the room, but the expression on Gongsun Ming's face became darker, and even his voice was a little bitter: "It's changed for me."

Zhao Ci talked about him from left to right, looking up and down the cave: "The environment is not bad, next time you can bring some food."

"Aci..."

The one who should come can't escape.

Gongsun Ming wanted to hold Zhao Ci's hand on the table, but the latter broke away.He asked lonely: "Do you really like Jiang Yanyi?"

The old aunt is really unreliable these days, Zhao Ci bit the bullet while slandering Aunt Xiang and nodded.

"But he abandoned you." Gongsun Ming said.

This is clearly adding salt to his own wounds.Zhao Ci wanted to let go, but the memories of that night would involuntarily creep into his mind whenever he was free, disturbing him.He thought about whether Jiang Yanyi had a difficult reason, and also thought that maybe he was restrained that night and couldn't move. He could give many reasons, but the final result was still the same.

The picture he saw before losing consciousness was blurry, Jiang Yanyi's figure was dangling in front of his eyes, and Zhao Ci couldn't tell whether it was reality or illusion.

Since coming to Hanfeng Mountain, this mountain is like a huge and comfortable clam shell, away from the world and at the same time keeping the world away from him. Zhao Ci has no place to find out Jiang Yanyi's whereabouts and movements, and he doesn't know if he will be anxious to find himself. .

Uneasiness, worry, grievance and discomfort were biting him like tarsal maggots, and he was upset. He wanted to integrate into the big family of Hanfeng Mountain, but his mood has improved and gradually integrated into Zhao Ci's identity. Now Gongsun Ming mentioned For this matter, he inevitably replied a little impatiently: "I can't see it, maybe he didn't care about me." Facing his old lover, Zhao Ci continued to be stubborn, he didn't want Gongsun Ming to think that liking Jiang Yanyi was a thing Wrong thing.

The encouraging rebuttal made Gongsun Ming think that he had a deep-rooted affection for Jiang Yanyi, and Leng Yuye was still defending the other party when he was thrown into Zhujian Mountain and almost died, which made Gongsun Ming both hate and jealous.

Gongsun Ming said: "If I were him, I would never let you fall to this point."

Zhao Ci raised his head suddenly: "Then why did I go down the mountain?"

Gongsun Ming suddenly seemed to have been punched in the face, and he looked at Zhao Ci dumbly.

"I asked you repeatedly before, but you didn't answer. Now I ask Aunt Xiang, and she told me."

Gongsun Ming's eyes slowly widened, looking at Zhao Ci's expression was like watching a horror movie, regret rained in his eyes.

"Gongsun Ming, why don't you object to me marrying Zhao Yan?"

"Where were you on the wedding night?"

"Why did I choose to go down the mountain and escape instead of looking for you?"

Questions were thrown one after another, like opening a Pandora's box, and the anger in Zhao Ci's heart grew more and more tired like a snowball, and he almost yelled out the last sentence.He stood up from the futon, leaned over the table and questioned Gongsun Ming.Roaring like a trapped animal, conflicting emotions collided in his heart, and anger and disappointment rolled over him like a snow mountain avalanche. When he came back to his senses, he found that he had burst into tears.

The same goes for Gongsun Ming.

Zhao Ci slumped back to his seat, those words subconsciously blurted out, he couldn't tell whether the emotions belonged to him or the original body, they were all abandoned and betrayed, and he felt the same.

Listening to the sound of the waterfall rumbling, both of them were silent.

Zhao Ci suddenly said: "When I like someone, I will trust him wholeheartedly. Even if he does something that I'm sorry for, I will try my best to trust him. As long as he can tell the reason and the reason for doing that, if I If I can accept it, I can forgive him, and if I can’t accept it, I will leave him.” He cleared his throat and said with a wry smile: “You said that I have not changed from before, then I must have thought the same way before. Gongsun Ming, why do you think I Going down the mountain?"

"No, no..." Gongsun Ming straightened his upper body, threw himself to the table and wanted to reach out to hold Zhao Ci, but he was afraid that he would break free again. His open hands were tightly clenched into fists, and his joints turned white.He said to Zhao Ci with red eyes: "Zhao Yan is our younger sister. She has been in poor health. Only you can make her healthy and happy. Only when she is with you can she feel at ease in everything."

"She is my younger sister." Zhao Ci said harshly.

"She's not your own sister!"

"But I have a brother-sister relationship with her, so you let me marry her for the rest of my life?!" Zhao Ci was so angry that he wanted to kill someone.

Gongsun Ming pressed Zhao Ci's shoulders with both hands, and tried to explain: "But Yan'er is not in good health, she won't live for many years—" Under Zhao Ci's fierce eyes, the words stopped abruptly.The reflexive words are often hidden expectations deep in the heart, and this secret and dark thought makes Gongsun Ming also very shocked.

"I actually think so..." Without Zhao Ci pulling away, Gongsun Ming's hands on his shoulders fell off naturally, like lifeless vines, and his whole soul was plucked out: "Why do I think so... ..."

Zhao Ci wanted to cry and laugh at the same time, weeping bitterly at this staggered marriage and laughing at this stupid idea.He took a deep breath and calmed down his complicated emotions: "Gongsun Ming, maybe I believed in fate before, but I don't believe in it now. I like Zhao Yan, but I will never tie my happiness for the rest of my life with her. You support me and Zhao Yan because of a broken superstition, I misread you." He turned around and left, and when he came to the door, he hated himself for being incompetent and unable to pass through this silly Huangguoshu Waterfall.

His frustration made him even more angry.

This is what he planned early in the morning!He even thought so.

Gongsun Ming immediately chased after him: "Aci, do you know how much I believe in Aunt Xiang's prophecy? I have been hurt by your so-called upturned fate since I was a child. My mother died because of me, my father's career was frustrated, and my stepmother repeatedly humiliated me. "Heavenly Evil Lone Star". Yunyou Gaoren said that I beat my father and my mother. In the end, my father abandoned me under the instigation of my stepmother. I can live until now thanks to the help and shelter of you and Aunt Xiang. Ran Yan'er has been on the mountain since climbing I'm not in good health, I'm really terrified, I'm afraid that I will hurt her and let her go to hell, and I'm afraid that you will also abandon me when the time comes."

"How could it be!" Zhao Ci turned around and said.

"But I just can't stop worrying. Ever since that poor Taoist gave me the notoriety of the lone star, I have had nightmares every night. All my sufferings are caused by this prophecy, and it has all come true. You say This is something out of thin air, a coincidence, but it actually happened, and it was so coincidental that I was forced to leave home. How can I not be afraid. What's more, Yan'er is my favorite little girl , I watched her grow from a little girl to a big girl, she is my own sister, if possible, I would rather dedicate my life to her, I really don't want her to die."

"It's ridiculous to be ignorant!" Zhao Ci scolded and wept.He sympathized with Gongsun Ming's experience, but he just couldn't forgive or understand his choice.

"Yes, I am ignorant and corrupt. But Aci, there is good fortune in nature, all things have mysteries, and there are gods three feet above the head. If you don't believe this, then where did your weird birthmark come from, and how did you save it with the phoenix tail feathers? My life? These are all things that we really saw happened, so where do we start?" Gongsun Ming asked.

Zhao Ci was dumbfounded and didn't know how to answer.He firmly believed in Marxism, and as a result, he traveled to ancient times and encountered these strange things.This was too fantastical and bizarre, and it ran counter to his previous firm beliefs. The so-called slap in the face to grandma's house was nothing more than that.

"A Ci, can you understand my difficulties and forgive me?" Gongsun Ming asked cautiously.

"I'm not Zhao Ci." He couldn't give the affection that Gongsun Ming expected, so Zhao Ci chose to confess everything.

"What?" Gongsun Ming obviously didn't react.

"Since you believe this, let me tell you, I'm not Zhao Ci, the original Zhao Ci is dead." He told him the truth about time travel.

At the beginning, Gongsun Ming tried to draw a decent smile to deal with this unimaginable answer, but at the end, he couldn't maintain any expression: "You mean, you are a person from another time and space living in A Ci's body? "

"Yes." Zhao Ci ignored the exploding pain in his chest and tried to speak calmly.

Gongsun Ming gritted his teeth and stared at Zhao Ci. He loved and hated Zhao Ci to the extreme. This answer seemed to be perfunctory and evasive. Did he indifferently fabricate a lie that was so ridiculous that he could see through it at a glance to make him give up?

He clenched his fists tightly with both hands, and his body couldn't help trembling slightly due to the force he held back.

Zhao Ci knew that he was hurting himself with his nails again and restrained himself.Whether the heartache is unbearable or unbearable, the past is over, and when it is broken, it will be broken, otherwise the cut will continue and the chaos will end up hurting deeper.

"I see." Gongsun Ming took a step back, and the next moment his figure flew into the waterfall.
