Chapter 7

Foreign Country

Author: Yao Jishan

Foreign Country

After several exchanges of words, Wei Shu finally realized that what she and the man were talking about was an extremely unfamiliar language. The words were babbled and the pronunciation was so weird that it was almost unheard of.

However, Wei Shu could not only understand this unheard and never understood language, but also speak it fluently.

Here...isn't it Daliang?

Looking back now, on the way to Canghe yesterday, she had indeed seen a few strange houses. At that time, she was already half-conscious, so she didn't think much about it even though she saw them. Now that she has carefully distinguished them, she finally

Finally, I realized that this place might not be the Central Plains?

Thinking of this, Wei Shudeng felt a chill in her heart, and she couldn't control herself, but there seemed to be a voice saying to her in the dark:

Even if this statement fails, it is not far off.

Is this really...a foreign country?

What about my beam?

For a moment, Wei Shu's heart was almost filled with sadness, and even the suspicious man in front of her felt unimportant.

Is my beam in good condition now?

Why do I end up living in this foreign land?

Think about how vast the country is under her rule. How many people are there? It's not good for her to devote herself to anything. Why did she end up in this small country... I'm afraid it may not even be a foreign country.

Wei Shu felt sad for no reason, and the heat in her heart went cold.

Who would have thought that I would end up in this foreign country? What should I do?

My heart was so blocked that I couldn't express myself in words, so I had to act as if nothing had happened, so as not to arouse suspicion.

At this time, Wei Shu was feeling worried, but she could only cough twice again, cover up the strange color on her face, and look in the direction of the man with the corner of her eye.

That rough face gradually gave her a sense of familiarity.

In the haze, the dark pages of the book were opened silently, and the candlelight gathered in one corner.

"Uncle Zhou?"

She called out hesitantly.

Following this sound, a name suddenly flashed through my mind:

Zhou Shang.

Yes, Zhou Shang. The name of this rough and powerful man is Zhou Shang.

Above the dark scroll, the candlelight suddenly brightened, illuminating everything about Zhou Shang in "her" memory... No, not everything, but a few memories.

But even so, it was enough to cope with the situation at this time, and Wei Shu's tense heartstrings were relaxed.

Indeed, this girl Aqi and Zhou Shang knew each other from the beginning, but they have been in frequent contact recently.

While thinking about this, another name suddenly emerged:

Aqis.

Yes, Aqis.

This is the full name of "her". The "Miss Aqi" that Zhou Shang just called is a so-called local abbreviation.

It is indeed a foreign country.

Wei Shu was depressed, but a familiar smile appeared on her face, and her tone became warmer: "When did Uncle Zhou come?"

Seeing that she finally recognized him, Zhou Shang looked relieved and exhaled, saying, "My dear, the girl finally recognizes someone."

While talking, he threw the things in his hands out with a "bang", sat down, grabbed the hem of his robe with his big hand like a cattail leaf fan, and quickly fanned it beside his face, and continued:

"I've been here for a while. I didn't expect the girl to come here. I tried to look for her, but I didn't expect that the girl was sleeping on the ground like this and couldn't wake up no matter how I screamed.

I was really anxious...I was scared to death, just because I was afraid that something would happen to the girl. Girl, you don’t know how scary it was when you were talking in your sleep just now."

Just now you were talking about "taking action", but now it's just like "talking in your sleep"?

Wei Shu glanced at the broken tile on the ground suspiciously.

This was what Zhou Shang had thrown away just now. At this moment, the tiles were glowing with water, and Wei Shu couldn't help but think of the coolness on her face just now, as well as Uncle Zhou's skillful blocking movements before.

Zhou Shang also noticed her gaze, "Haha" he laughed twice, and said: "Miss Aqi, don't be surprised, everything happens for a reason. You seemed to be possessed just now, and I couldn't do anything about it."

As expected, it was you who poured water on my face.

At this moment, Wei Shu didn't notice that she started calling herself "I" again, as if the "I" in her mind had disappeared somewhere else.

After Zhou Shang finished speaking, he tugged hard on his collar, as if he thought it was too tight.

For some reason, at that moment, a flash of strong disgust flashed across his eyes, as if there was a deep hatred between him and his collar.

This emotion came so suddenly that an indescribable and unexplained meaning began to permeate his body, giving people a very fragmented feeling, as if "clothes are clothes, and people are people." He and the clothes

It's not the same thing at all.

"Why did Miss Aqi come to this damn place?" Zhou Shang said, his tone and demeanor were very attentive.

That feeling of separation came back again.

Wei Shu pursed her lips, a look of confusion appeared on her pale face, but her mind was quickly thinking about how to answer and what to say.

No, before she could think clearly, Zhou Shang suddenly raised his voice and said:

"Oh, God bless me, I can finally see Miss Aqi. My mother is looking forward to her coming just like she is looking forward to the stars and the moon. She really couldn't wait any longer, so she asked me to come out and invite her.

I just went to Jinzhan Lane to inquire, and I found out that Miss Aqi took leave yesterday and left the house. I was afraid that she would be anxious waiting, so I found this place all the way, but it turned out that she was hiding from the rain here, but she was teaching me good things.

try to find."

The words came suddenly, and were said in an extremely humble manner. His voice was especially bold and loud, and could almost be heard outside the door. While speaking, he kept using his eyes to signal Wei Shu to pay attention outside.

There was a sound of heavy footsteps coming from outside.

In fact, Wei Shu had heard it a long time ago.

Not only did she hear it, but she also knew that he was just a passerby. Not only had he never gone to the temple, but the man also speeded up his pace when passing the temple gate. It could be said that he was running forward wildly, running all the way.

He breathed heavily and murmured blessings such as "Devils and demons will be eliminated", as if he was avoiding this place.

But Zhou Shang obviously didn't know about it, and he said loudly: "Girl, follow me out quickly. This place used to be haunted and it is unlucky. We must not get any bad luck."

It turns out that's the case. It's strange that the pedestrian walked so fast.

Wei Shu was thinking when she suddenly heard Zhou Shang whisper again: "Miss Aqi, let's go quickly. It's getting late. I spent a lot of time looking for you."

Wei Shu nodded and said hello, her eyes swept over his almost soaked boots, the corners of his robes splashed with large mud spots, and finally fell on his sweaty face.

His face was oily, and his brows and eyes were full of fatigue. It looked like he had not only been running around all morning, but also didn't sleep well last night.

What was this going on for?
