Chapter 52 Ancestors
Chapter 52 Ancestors
Sometimes, Xie Yingzhou would know whether she was awake or dreaming. For example, now that she found herself in a strange deserted house with a weird little girl standing beside her, she knew that she was just dreaming.
As for that little girl, she is the 5 or 6-year-old Ye Pan who makes people feel impersonal in her internal image.
Not in a hurry to get rid of the dream, nor in a hurry to observe the scene in the dream, Xie Yingzhou looked down at Ye Pan beside her.
It's just that in the dream at this time, everything around her was wrapped in a thick layer of mist, so that she couldn't even see the face of the girl next to her clearly. The strange thing was that Xie Yingzhou could feel Ye Pan's certain emotions, Some superficial emotions.
The girl took a few steps forward, turned around, and the fog around her stirred. Although she couldn't see clearly, Xie Yingzhou felt that Ye Pan was smiling at her at this moment.
"Who are you?" Xie Yingzhou asked.
The girl didn't answer, but just stood a few steps in front of her and looked at her.
Without warning, Xie Yingzhou suddenly pulled out the dagger from her waist, bent her knees forward, and swung the dagger towards the girl's throat.
It's just that she drew her sword suddenly, but it didn't work. Even the gray mist that shrouded the girl's body was not disturbed.
"..."
He felt that the girl was looking at him and smiling, but his position was reversed. Xie Yingzhou was an ignorant little girl, while the other party was a wise adult.
Xie Yingzhou stood up silently and put away her sword, ignored the girl, and looked up at the deserted house she was in now.
It's just that everything in front of me is shrouded in thick fog, and I can't see it clearly. Xie Yingzhou frowned, trying to control the spiritual energy, and a strong wind blew around her.
The fog in front of her eyes dissipated immediately, and the deserted house appeared in front of her. Its scenery was gloomy and cold, the dwarf trees in the courtyard were covered with moss and vines, the crazy grass was blurred and decayed, and there were several collapsed and abandoned buildings. , there are some rusty bronze bells hanging on the overturned eaves, because of the strong wind blown by Xie Yingzhou, those bells made tinkling noises, but even the bells brought a little vitality to the place, the collapsed white wall, exposed in the The external internal timber structure and so on, all make the space in front of you look yellowish and green, like an old man who is about to die.
In addition to these, Xie Yingzhou also felt a damp and rotten smell floating in the surrounding air, and she felt that her mood became depressed. The scene in this dream made her feel extremely depressed.
Looking back, there is nothing but crazy grass and short trees, no road, no door, no destination to leave.
Xie Yingzhou saw Ye Pan standing in the grass not far away, where the fog was still gathering, and the scenery was not clear, but Ye Pan just stood there, looking at herself silently, with a mocking smile still hanging on the corner of his mouth, even though Xie Yingzhou couldn't see her expression, but she felt in her heart that the other party's expression should be like this now.
Pushing aside the crazy grass that was almost to the waist, Xie Yingzhou walked towards the direction of the girl with the strong wind wrapped around her body, and the sound of the bell became clearer, like a nursery rhyme. The wind blew away the fog.
This place full of crazy weeds, the ground is muddy, although there are no mosquitoes, it still makes people feel dull and suffocating. Some inexplicable emotion is pressed on Xie Yingzhou's heart. She only feels heavy, but she can't tell the heavy feeling origin.
While walking, Xie Yingzhou looked around, and when she stepped out of the weed-filled courtyard, the field of vision in front of her eyes became wider, and the fog almost completely dispersed.
The dim light there was projected by the setting sun from the horizon, and there was a huge orange sun on the horizon, as if the deserted house was on the horizon, and the setting sun could touch it by raising one's hand.
Although it is so close, the light is not hot, and even the warmth can't be felt. There is only light, and the heat has dissipated, making people feel cold.
Xie Yingzhou turned her eyes to the huge building not far away under the setting sun. That building seemed to be just a stone door leading to the ground. The stone door was opened, revealing a dark space with no light inside. The top is also covered with bronze bells, which make a crisp sound with the wind in the setting sun. On both sides of the stone door, there are various complex runes carved, covered by layers of vines. Xie Yingzhou carefully identified, She could only see those exposed runes, some of which symbolized stars, mountains and rivers, but she didn't recognize the rest at all.
But when she took a closer look, she felt that those runes were inexplicably familiar.
On both sides of the stone gate, there are two rows of tall stone statues. Those stone statues are wearing long skirts of ancient times. The strange thing is that Xie Yingzhou can't see the faces of the stone statues clearly, because under the rays of the setting sun, those statues may be painted with special fuel. The head of the huge stone statue was quietly burning.
Xie Yingzhou stared blankly, her heart seemed to be burning, and a sentence floated in her mind.
... light up the head.
"Tap, tap..." Suddenly, there was a sound of rustling footsteps, Xie Yingzhou turned her head, and saw a group of people wearing long skirts and robes like those stone statues, slowly walking into the stone gate. At this time, Xie Yingzhou also recognized that Ye Pan in the inner picture was also wearing this kind of long brocade skirt embroidered with complicated cloud patterns.
At this moment, a nursery rhyme rang in Xie Yingzhou's ear: Ye Changgu, with a calm heart, thousands of miles of people, peace of mind...
Accompanied by the ringing bells, this nursery rhyme made Xie Yingzhou in a trance for a while, and at the same time relieved her uneasy and gloomy mood. This nursery rhyme has a peaceful effect, and the childish voice is clear and gentle , comforting the traveler who is about to fall asleep.
Those people were old and young, their long hair was tied into a bun, their faces were peaceful, their eyes were indifferent, they just looked at the stone gate, and walked in one by one with steady steps.
Xie Yingzhou stood in the distance with her lips, watching those people silently, listening to the nursery rhyme that was like a lullaby, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth involuntarily.
A stone broke through the air and hit Xie Yingzhou's head straight. Xie Yingzhou's forehead hurt, her eyes became clear, and she woke up from the nursery rhyme.
"Do you want to go in with them?" Ye Pan, who threw Xie Yingzhou's stone, asked calmly. She stood not far from Xie Yingzhou, threw the stone high and then caught it.
Xie Yingzhou ignored her, turned her head and turned her attention back to the group of people in simple long dresses, no longer affected by nursery rhymes.
It was at this moment that she noticed that those people were doing something that she didn't feel good about.
"Don't go in." Xie Yingzhou took a few steps forward and shouted at those people.
Those people didn't seem to hear her cry, they were like an ancient well, calm, and continued to slowly walk into the huge stone gate, and now the stone gate in Xie Yingzhou's eyes is like a hole, a terrifying With a big mouth, he swallowed the old and the young in front of him one by one.
Naturally, Xie Yingzhou, who has always been indifferent to people, is full of affection for these people wearing ancient long skirts.
"Don't go in!!" Xie Yingzhou yelled again, she rushed up, trying to grab a teenager who was only in her teens, but her hand passed directly through the boy's body. These may just be historical images, what Xie Yingzhou did Can't have any effect.
It's just that Xie Yingzhou was still in agony. Biting her lip, she saw a 5 or 6-year-old girl being held by her mother at the back of the line. There was vivid aura in her eyes and a hint of ignorance on her cute round face, but she also Obediently, under the pulling of her mother, she walked slowly towards the giant door.
"Ding ding, ding ding..." The bell on the stone gate jingled.
"Ye Changgu, my heart is calm, people from thousands of miles, my soul is at peace..."
Seeing that those people ignored her, Xie Yingzhou silently withdrew from the team, ran towards the giant gate, and began to pour all the spiritual energy into her hands, she wanted to destroy this stone gate.
The wind whistled in my ears, and the hurricane carrying Xie Yingzhou's huge aura rolled towards the stone gate, but when the hurricane hit the stone gate, it disappeared without a trace.
...Okay, then I'll go in and see what the hell is in there.
Knowing that this was a dream, Xie Yingzhou let her emotions control her actions and preferences. She pulled out the short blade at her waist and followed those people towards the standing stone gate.
But at this moment, the group of ancient well-like people began to stir. Like a school of fish suddenly disturbed, they all turned their eyes to Xie Yingzhou.
The sound of sleeping nursery rhymes also came to an end.
Xie Yingzhou only felt creepy, but her heart was full of courage now, so she didn't stop her steps and walked quickly towards Shimen.
"Don't go in!" Just as Xie Yingzhou was about to step up the steps of the stone gate, someone suddenly grabbed Xie Yingzhou's wrist and shouted in horror.
Xie Yingzhou only felt a warm air around her wrist, but it didn't have much strength. She turned her head and saw a middle-aged man. He seemed to be awakened. The original calm and quiet expression had disappeared, replaced by Fear and restlessness.
"Don't go in!"
"Don't go in!"
"Don't go in!"
More and more people shouted, their voices were like a net, constantly ringing in Xie Yingzhou's ears, catching her, and more and more people were catching her, those people watched in horror Xie Yingzhou was terribly afraid that she would also walk into that stone door.
"Don't go in!"
"Don't go in!"
The sentence "Don't go in" implied fear and inexplicable concern. Xie Yingzhou felt that her whole body was wrapped in a warm breath, and then she was pushed away from the stone door. Wrapped in that warm breath, it slowly descended and fell.
Opening her eyes suddenly, Xie Yingzhou saw her and Ye Wujian's new bed, turned her head, but did not see Ye Wujian's figure, Xie Yingzhou sat up slowly, turned her head and looked out the window, it was already bright outside , this is the first time she has slept for such a long time.
don't go in.
The words of the person in the dream still echoed in her ears. Accompanied by the clear and gentle singing of nursery rhymes and the tinkling of bells, Xie Yingzhou felt her cheeks were a little cold. She reached out to touch them, only to find that her cheeks had been soaked with her own tears.
Where is the scene seen in the dream?
Xie Yingzhou thought, and quickly wiped away the tears on her face.
"Do you want to raise fish here?" Yinshan Jun's voice came from outside the house. The energetic and childish voice dispelled the echoing "Don't go in" in his head. Xie Yingzhou took a deep breath and rubbed it hard. face, slowly exhaled that breath again, and then stood up from the bed.
Putting on the khaki clogs, Xie Yingzhou grabbed her soft hair. Her hair was already very smooth, and it wouldn't become too messy after a night's sleep.
Picking up the long coat hanging on the wooden shelf next to the bed, Xie Yingzhou put it on, walked out of the room, and leaned on the railing on the second floor to look at the yard, where the sun was already shining. In the reclaimed vegetable field, pull out some of the finer weeds, while Mr. Yinshan and Jiuying are in the small yard, and Jiuying, who has turned into a boy, is drying his clothes sensiblely, but he obviously doesn't care. He is good at this, his clothes are hung crookedly, Xie Yingzhou is also a little awkward to see, turned his eyes to look at Lord Yinshan, he has become a prototype, lying on the side of the pool in the small courtyard, dazed, not knowing what he is looking at.
"Have you had breakfast?" Xie Yingzhou shouted to the three people who were busy in the yard.
Hearing her voice, Ye Wujian got up and turned his head to look at the second floor. At the same time, he raised his hat, revealing the indifferent eyes underneath.
"It's rare to see you sleep so soundly, and I didn't wake you up. I've already taken them to the morning market to eat, and I bought a copy for you." There was a smile on the corner of her mouth, and her eyes were shining brightly under the morning light. It was a little pale, with occasional flashes of red light, but it was no longer as restless as before.
Xie Yingzhou looked at her and smiled.
