Chapter 117
All day, the seven of us stayed in place to rest, waiting patiently for the heavy rain to come.
Before the sun set, everyone set up the tent and lit the bonfire.
After dinner, Qimeng carried the sleeping tiger into the tent, walked to me and said softly:
"Wang Cheng, can you accompany me to a walk nearby?"
"No problem." I greeted everyone and took Qimeng to the back. Because I was worried that Ye Hei would get lost, I did not take Qimeng too far, so I found an open space nearby and sat down.
Qimeng also sat beside me. She took out a milk candy from her pocket and handed it to me:
"When I was a child, my favorite thing was this kind of milk candy. At that time, my grandma would give me one every few days. Whenever I eat this candy, I was happy all day... But now, as time goes by, the candy is still the same milk candy, and as long as I want to eat it, I can buy it at any time, but I can never feel the joy of being happy all day when I was a child..."
Qimeng said, peeling off the milk candy in her hand and putting it into her mouth.
In fact, Qimeng is a sentimental girl. She should be very particular about emotions, so she never forgets the candy she loved when she was a child.
I looked at the milk candy in my hand and said to Qimeng:
"Sister Qimeng, although we can never understand the happiness and joy of childhood, we still have many beautiful memories and memories that we will never forget, right?"
Qimeng turned her head, looked at me with a pair of dark and shiny eyes, and smiled:
"You're right, we still have many wonderful memories."
"Sister Qimeng, are you worried about suddenly calling me to accompany you around?" Based on my understanding of Qimeng, she must have something to do in her heart now, otherwise she would not be so depressed.
"There's nothing special. I just think you're too tired." Qi Meng stared at me and continued:
"Wang Cheng, do you know? In my eyes, your life is black and white, without any color. In the depths of your eyes, everything I see is hatred and hostility." Qi Meng said this, and then said to me:
"I can see that you are lonely and patient. You can endure everything silently, like a wolf living for revenge. I really feel sorry for you. Have you ever thought too much about yourself in your life?"
After hearing what Sister Qimeng said to me, I was silent for a while and said:
"Sister Qimeng, I have also considered myself. But there is some hatred that I can't let go, and I can't let go. My sister died because of me, but she won't be able to have a body after she dies. I can live until now, all depends on the hatred in my heart, otherwise I would have fallen down long ago."
I don’t know why, but when I said these words to Qimeng, my nose became sore.
Qimeng looked at me and said nothing. She just sat beside me and looked up quietly at the night sky.
"Sister Qimeng, I'm actually very unsure. I'm still worried that if we can't find the Western Zhou Dead City this time, or the day when the troubled child I carry cannot last..."
When Qimeng heard this, she stretched out her hand and blocked her mouth:
"Wang Cheng, don't think so. God will definitely bless us. We will definitely find the Dead City of Western Zhou."
"Hope..." I said, stretching out my hand and touching the red mark on my arm. I don't know if God will bless me, but if my sister has a spirit, she will bless me.
It was dark and a cold wind blew around. Qi Meng shrank her neck and said:
"Wang Cheng, the wind is rising, let's go back and roast for a while."
I walked back slowly with Qimeng. Through a long distance, I heard the shouts of Taoist Yangwei, Guoan and others.
When they approached, they found that the people actually drank wine and sang songs around the bonfire. On the bonfire, there was a skinned rabbit baking it.
After seeing Qimeng and I come back, Taoist Yangwei, who is sitting in the middle, he hurriedly reached out to me and greeted me:
"Wang Cheng, you are back just in time. Come over and have some drinks with your brothers. Are you used to drinking this 56-degree Erguotou?"
"No, I can't drink, I'm grateful." In such a place, drinking is completely a waste of time.
They are different from me. Taoist Yangwei and others came to the Western Zhou Dead City to look for a human skin map that records the treasures of the Western Zhou Dynasty. Even if they can't find it, there will be no loss for them. But if I can't find the white demon pill, I will definitely die.
So I am not in a state of drinking now.
After Taoist Yangwei and others finished drinking, it was already midnight. Tonight I took the initiative to ask for a vigil, but was stopped by Brother Sun Glasses. He told me that he would come to the vigil tonight and asked me to go back and have a good rest for the night.
After entering the narrow tent with Qimeng, she leaned against the side and pulled the sleeping tiger over and placed it in the middle of the tent, treating the tiger as a 38th parallel to prevent me from crossing the line.
I took off my shoes and lay down, put the flashlight and scraper next to the pillow, and just closed my eyes, I fell asleep...
"Wang Cheng, Wang Cheng, Wang Cheng..." I vaguely seemed to hear someone calling my name in the distance, as if it was my sister Qimeng!
I opened my eyes and found myself trapped in a white spider web, wanting to move but unable to move.
"Wang Cheng, save me, come and save me..." Sister Qimeng's shouting became less and less until it disappeared.
I was in the middle of the spider web, and no matter how hard I struggled, I was worried that my sister Qimeng would encounter danger. I was so anxious that there were a hundred mice catching them wildly, but there was no way.
"Wang Cheng, Wang Cheng, what's wrong with you? Wake up quickly..." Suddenly, Sister Qimeng's shout came from his ears, which woke me up. I suddenly sat up from the ground, gasping for breath, and a lot of cold sweat appeared on my forehead. I turned to look at Qimeng sitting beside me and said:
"Sister Qimeng, I just dreamed of my sister. She kept calling my name and asked me to go over and save her, but... but I was powerless and could only listen to her shouting for help, there was no way!"
"Wang Cheng, don't worry, it's just a dream just now. Didn't your sister always be by your side with you?" Qi Meng said, getting up, taking out the porcelain jar containing the sister's soul from her backpack and handing it to me.
I took the porcelain jar from Qimeng's hand and hugged it tightly in my arms.
"Sister, if you have something to say to me, you must tell me in your dream and tell me."
...
In the early morning, Qimeng and I packed up our backpack, ate some compressed biscuits in the tent to satisfy our hunger before walking out of the tent.
As soon as I walked out of the tent, I saw Brother Sun Glasses sitting cross-legged in front of the bonfire. I was about to say hello to him, but I saw that the bonfire in front of Brother Sun Glasses had already been extinguished.
This is not right!
"Brother Mo?" I pulled Qimeng behind me and shouted.
Brother Sun Glasses was still sitting cross-legged on the ground, his body still motionless, as if he hadn't heard me.
