Chapter 369 A very scary story if you think about it(1/2)

 Gu Jianlin had never seen her look so confused before, and he felt a little uncomfortable for a moment.

He suddenly realized something.

No matter how powerful the woman in front of her is or how noble her status is, she has her own unknown past, which hides her past joys and sorrows, joys and sorrows.

She is a living person, not a weapon or a monster.

Thinking about it this way, he felt more or less a sense of security in his heart. It turned out that such a powerful person also had weaknesses, and would also show such confused eyes, as well as the helplessness and loneliness when he was homeless. He was not invulnerable. Then he thought about it.

Thinking about him makes me feel a little heavy. Even people who stand at the top of the world still have things they cannot do, and there are times when they are powerless. They draw their swords and look around at a loss, and they can only sit in the bar and drink.

Compared with the sense of crisis of being coerced, he hates the feeling of incompetence even more.

"Sorry."

He felt a little sorry in his heart because he suddenly thought of himself when he was a child.

"Apologise for what?"

Skylark poured himself a glass of peach juice, held it in both hands and brought it to his lips, sipping gracefully and elegantly.

"Nothing."

Gu Jianlin looked at the bright city under the sun and suddenly asked: "Is that person very important to you?"

Skylark showed a thoughtful expression and said softly: "Maybe it's my family? Because I remember clearly that I used to live in a small city in the south, and there was an old tree that had lived for many years in front of my house.

When shrouded in sunlight, it looks like dazzling gold, and there is a flower that has withered for many years."

She seemed to be telling an ordinary past event, but a mysterious aura filled the air, and the flow of time became quiet. The sunlight reflected on the girl's porcelain-white cheeks, so white that they were almost transparent.

It's like a beautiful witch reciting an ancient spell, which contains a huge secret.

"Well, your accent does have a bit of a Southern accent."

Gu Jianlin nodded slightly: "Do you like sweet or salty tofu?"

"Of course it's sweet."

Skylark glanced at him sideways: "Can you eat salty food?"

"That's right."

Gu Jianlin said casually: "And I just feel like vomiting when I smell the sweet tofu."

It's rare for someone with such a straight-minded thinking to make a joke to liven up the atmosphere.

Probably to regulate the woman's mood and prevent her from going crazy.

It has nothing to do with whether she is good-looking or not.

"Our family's financial background was probably pretty good at first. Many people in that small city respected us."

Skylark stared at the blue sky, silently staring at the turbulence of the sea of ​​clouds, and said softly: "If I remember correctly, that city was later hit by a natural disaster. Well, it was not a natural disaster, but an ancient god.

The Breath invaded and turned into a forbidden area. Our city was shrouded and the Aether Association took over."

"We?"

Gu Jianlin captured the key words.

"Well, I remember that I have a family. I am the eldest daughter in the family. There should be four younger brothers in the family. They are all about my age, but they are all difficult to discipline. The second child is the most withdrawn and is not friendly with his family. The only one is

What I can remember is his back. The third child is very smart and can help me share a lot of things. The fourth child is lazy and indifferent to everything. He is a child who has not grown up. The fifth child has a perverse personality and no one knows what he is thinking.

What."

Yunque fell into memories, his eyes clear and confused: "All five of us are in poor health and are weak and sick. Most of the residents have evacuated, but we have not chosen to leave. We have to wait for our parents to come back, and they will come to treat us.

People from the Sick Ether Association have helped us contact our parents, but there has been no news."

"You have also been to Black Cloud Walled City, and you should know what will happen in the forbidden area, just like Tokyo last night. The sudden disaster disrupted your peaceful life, and the past is gone forever."

She shook the peach juice in the glass and said faintly: "Even under the control of the Ether Association, the forbidden area is still disordered. Sublimated people from all over the world will come here to investigate, and battles will break out from time to time. I remember,

My room has been smashed in many times, and heads rolled down to my feet like footballs."

The panicked screams and frightened expressions of the citizens last night seemed to appear before her eyes again.

She didn't care at the time, she just thought those people were a bunch of ants.

After recovering part of my memory, I was suddenly able to empathize with them.

Because she was once such a helpless ant.

Gu Jianlin frowned instinctively because he thought this was a bit unreasonable.

If this is really the style of the Ether Association, you don't care about your own wishes. If you five little brats don't want to leave, then just plug your mouths and stuff them into sacks, and then give them a shot of sedative.

When you woke up, you were already doing morning exercises in the Shanghai Experimental Primary School.

"Sounds crazy."

He commented.

Skylark's recovered memories may not all be reliable, and it doesn't matter if this detail doesn't match up.

"Life was very chaotic during that time, because daily necessities from the outside would no longer be delivered, and daily necessities could only be delivered through special channels. The five of us would often go to the aid station to grab food and toilet paper. The station manager was a bastard who enriched himself.

, they would embezzle most of the rescue money and give us some leftovers. Sometimes they would scold us and accuse us of stealing things. Occasionally they would lead people around downstairs of my house. Did they want to sell us?



Skylark smiled silently: "How many people like this are there in the Ether Association?"

"This kind of behavior should be uncommon in all branches. Taixu will clean them up regularly."

Gu Jianlin thought for a while: "Probably no more than three months."

"I can't wait that long, because I will have awakened by then."

Skylark curled his lips: "We couldn't go to school at that time, so we could only hide at home and worry about it every day. The TV signal could only receive six channels, only boring soap operas and evening news. The network was also interrupted, and there were still some games and videos stored on the hard drive.

Several anime. The one that stayed with me during that time was "Digimon". Have you seen it?"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Gu Jianlin tried to hum a tune in Japanese: "After the infinite dream?"

Now he is convinced that this woman has recovered more and more memories.

It also looks more like a human being.

Skylark also hummed the tune softly, her voice was ethereal and graceful, singing a different kind of charm, as vivid and yearning as an elf in the cold forest, as if opening a forest leaf is a new adventure.

.

"You can watch an anime over and over again, but you still have to find something to do. At that time, there was a scholar who came to archeology and took good care of us. He was an old man in his nineties, and his lifelong wish was to get a glimpse of the secrets of the ancient gods. There was

When he came back from archeology, he would bring us a lot of snacks and candies. He would sit under the tree below my house and tell me some of the history of the ancient gods. At first, I thought it was all myths and legends."

Yunque's voice rarely became softer: "I still remember his smile. His face is wrinkled due to the wind and sun all year round, but he smiles very kindly. It was that old man who gave me the promotion ceremony of the path to slaying ghosts, including promotion to the institute.

Part of the resources needed. He told me that girls should also learn to clench their fists to protect themselves, especially since I have four unlucky younger brothers. I am so beautiful, and sooner or later bad people will miss me."

Gu Jianlin looked at her beautiful side face suspiciously and suddenly said: "I remember Bai Long said just now that you only became more and more like the Supreme One after you arrived at Mount Buzhou."

"I was also very good-looking."

Skylark said coldly: "And after I was promoted to the second level, the first thing I did was to kill the webmaster who had enriched himself, along with his three bastard sons and four lovers."

"Cool."

Gu Jianlin commented: "How old were you at that time?"

"Eight years old?"

Skylark said softly: "Don't you think I'm scary?"

"There is nothing to be afraid of. I believe that human nature is inherently evil. When I was young, I certainly had many bad thoughts. In that case, it was your instinct to survive. I would do the same thing in my place."

Gu Jianlin said seriously: "As long as you can bear the cost, it doesn't matter what is right or wrong for you."

Yunque savored these words: "That's really good, but I'm not the one who pays the price for it."

Gu Jianlin was slightly startled.

"The Ether Association noticed the webmaster's death and quickly launched an investigation into him. Naturally, they found out that I was the murderer. Those people did not hold me accountable for this matter. After all, the webmaster was indeed a bastard."<

/p>

Skylark's voice became cold: "The problem is that I did break their rules, so I need to be restrained and disciplined. At the same time, the Ether Association also found out about the old man who helped me get promoted."

Gu Jianlin was silent for a moment: "The Ether Association's style shouldn't make things difficult for him."

"Yes, the Ether Association did not make things difficult for him. It just sent him out of the forbidden area and canceled his officially certified archaeologist qualification. The problem is that the webmaster has a background."

There was a strong murderous intent in Yunque's eyes: "Later I found out that the old man died on his way home. There were two granddaughters waiting for him at home."

Gu Jianlin shook his head. If this story is true, it is a tragedy in a huge system.

The Ether Association is too large and its forces are complex.
