Chapter 147 Young

When Jin Suoyang said this, the expression on Qin Gentian's face also paused briefly.

Because he suddenly realized that what he had been trying to hide from the young man was discovered by this guy in advance, and it seemed that he really figured it out based on the things he encountered on the mountain today.

And if he hadn't discovered this in advance when he was rescued from the river that night, he might not be able to fully guess the ins and outs of the whole thing now.

So at the moment, I don't know whether to kill that unlucky fox that came out of nowhere, or to blame the guy next to me for being so bad at all.

It is very clear that once he fully understands that here and Dongshan he said are not at the same time, it will definitely not be beneficial to those things that are still in his mind.

However, if he insisted on interfering and preventing him from trying to understand, the investigation on this matter might not be able to continue.

Therefore, under the balance, Qin Gentiana finally narrowed his eyes calmly and calmly, and on the basis of worrying that he is also tracking down the male chicken man, he tried his best to keep his tone normal and match the youth's previous words. He asked a question below,

"So... what you mean now is that you came from a different time in Dongshan than here?"

"Well, but... I'm just guessing at the moment. My mobile phone was broken when I fell from a high altitude, so I can't confirm the specific time difference between here and my world, but I asked Fan Xi before, The Dongshan government here is obviously not the same as the one I know, and there are no people I knew before, but it is also Dongshan, why this strange situation occurs, which makes me a little puzzled..."

"..."

"But combined with what happened today, I suddenly realized that time in Dongshan may not only represent time, but also a kind of distance, or a special space measurement unit. Strange stories, such as "Peach Blossom Spring" and "[-] Zhi Nuo Gao", there are often related records about outsiders suddenly breaking into an unknown world, which are actually... very similar to the situation I am encountering now..."

"..."

"In addition, when I fell from the mountain, I didn't have a strong sense of jet lag. When I woke up, it was just a day and night. Maybe this world, my world, may be a few days ago or a few days later, and the most important thing is Yes... I found that the two Dongshans actually have some special connections under certain circumstances. For example, the legend of the Chishui Dragon King also exists in Dongshan County on the other side, which means that this entrance is alive, isn't it? Damn, some related information is also flowing and interoperable..."

Listening to him analyze the clues that he has learned so far with himself almost exactly, as the Chishui Dragon King who should have lived in the legend, he naturally did not reveal the slightest sign that he actually knew the inside story long ago.

And obviously, for a "living person" who has lived in Fan Village for many years and has a very mysterious background, it seems a little unreasonable for him to pretend that he doesn't know anything.

So at the moment, he just followed Jin Suoyang's words and chatted casually with him about the cause and effect of this incident. During the period, he deliberately told the origin of the old boy he had just learned through the mouth of the old man in the village.

After noticing that Jin Suoyang was obviously made pale by the old boy's disgusting source, Qin Gentian, who originally wanted to achieve this effect, continued noncommittally,

"Children are squeezed out of the last drop of oil and water by magic, and in the end they can only become ugly and aging 'old children'. There are stories about being driven by Xiangxi wizards from ancient times to the present. All the way here, apparently, they are the only ones who know this way of coming and going besides the rooster man who controls them... And if it is true as you say, the song "Catch the Cock" that the old children have been humming over and over again "If it is the key to everything, I can give you a relatively useful clue."

"...What clue?"

As soon as he heard him say that, his complexion changed, and the expression on the face of the white-haired young man who raised his eyes and quickly looked at him became a little different in an instant.

And Qin Geng, who had known for a long time that this single clue might come in handy here in the future, didn't intentionally hold his appetite when he saw this, he just looked away thoughtfully, and pondered Jin Suoyang's heart at the moment Thoughts continue to speak slowly,

"I guess you may have asked Fan Abao and the children in the village where they heard the song "Catch the Cock" in the first place, but children of their age are generally forgetful, and they may listen to it from anywhere. When it comes to a sentence, I will write it down, and I can’t remember the specific source of this kind of thing at all.”

"..."

"But obviously, there are always some ways to spread such a strange and complicated nursery rhyme in a large area... But the children in the village usually have limited access to things, so I really found it later. A little bit of clues, do you know where the nursery rhyme about the rooster killing eight chickens was first written by that caring person?"

"...Where is it written?"

"On the rice cracker paper, a kind of peanut rice cracker that can be bought everywhere at the bottom of the mountain, there is such a thin layer of glutinous rice paper sandwiched in it. We also call it rice cracker paper locally. Yang Hua didn't like it when she was young. Eat glutinous rice and peanuts, so even if someone gave her this kind of rice cracker, she would secretly throw it away or spit it out every time she got it... But in the past, during the Spring Festival, children in almost every household in the local area Everyone will eat this kind of rice cracker, and on the outside of the rice cracker paper is a big rooster like the one on the New Year picture, so this kind of rice cracker is also called rooster rice cracker..."

"..."

Having said that, Qin Gentian, who lowered his head, also took out the things that he was going to bring from his home to Jinsuoyang, but he hadn't brought them out.

After raising his hand, he unwrapped the crude rice cracker with the big red package of Dongshan Food No. [-] Factory printed on the bottom, and took out the transparent glutinous rice paper that had become a little sticky inside, and showed him a look. Under the moonlight, it was clearly recognized that the densely packed writing was vaguely printed on it. The two looked at each other with complicated faces, and then listened to Qin Gentiana, who had an unclear expression, squinted his eyes and continued to say,

"Look, sure enough, because this thin layer of glutinous rice paper will quickly melt away as soon as you put it in your mouth, people who spread nursery rhymes with glutinous rice paper will hardly leave any traces, and as long as children peel it off If you come to eat rice crackers, you will be able to see the words on it. You must know that the Dong people have not had their own independent language and characters for many years..."

"……No text?"

"Well, because our nation is good at singing and dancing, even children can easily recognize and hum some special notes and tones. You may not know if you are from a foreign country, but the food factory that originally made this kind of rooster rice crackers is Next to the Bazhong Sichuan Opera Troupe at the foot of the mountain, it just happened to have closed down a few years ago..."

"..."

"So before you came, the rooster man who was good at magic was already planning to use these nursery rhymes written on rice crackers to attack the children of Fan Village. The children who were confused by the nursery rhymes were automatically led up the mountain, but it happened that you came to the mountain again that day, Fan Abao and the others who were led into the woods were lucky enough to survive..."

After coming and going, all kinds of clues about Gong Jilang finally pointed to another Dongshan County at the foot of the mountain.

Seeing Qin Gentiana rubbing the glutinous rice paper that may be stained with the lives and blood of countless children with his fingers and throwing it into the snow to melt it little by little, Jin Suoyang looked solemn for a moment, and his thoughts seemed to follow his words involuntarily. I went to the mysterious Sichuan opera troupe and the rice cracker factory down the mountain.

It's just that what made him feel a little doubtful in his heart was that he felt that the people around him seemed to show an extraordinary calmness in this matter, as if it was completely commonplace, which was completely different from his lack of love in front of others. Although the attitude of acquaintance is a little different.

On the other hand, when Qin Gentian decided to come out to meet him in the middle of the night, he still had some unsightly thoughts in his mind.

But just now, after being influenced by this guy whose mind is full of his busy and serious business, the evil fire in his mind and body also inexplicably cooled down.

Therefore, Qin Gentian, who restrained his thoughts a little, didn't notice Jin Suoyang's guessing about him for a while, and only pondered about the next thing they need to face together expressionlessly, then tilted his head and paused for a while. After a while, he squeezed his stiff and cold fingers and looked down at the white snow field in front of the two of them and said in a deep voice,

"If you are really interested in looking for clues around the Sichuan Opera Troupe and the No. [-] Food Factory tomorrow, I can also accompany you down the mountain to Dongshan County. I have something to take Yang Hua down the mountain for a few days. .”

"You and Yang Hua? What are you going to do down the mountain?"

"...Many of the river bead bracelets that are unsalable at home this year have not been sold out. After they are sold, the turnover at home will be normal during the Chinese New Year. Moreover, I have not been home for more than a year. Yang Hua's clothes and The shoes don't fit well. If you want to go down the mountain with us tomorrow, the three of you can come back together at that time... Besides, your current legs still can't walk too far, right? And the one you said earlier Your clay doll will follow, right?"

"……?Um."

At the first glance, when he heard that the man with a hoarse and cool voice had thoughtfully and considerately helped him think of everything, Jin Suoyang was also startled, and then nodded quickly.

But so far, in front of the young people, he still managed to maintain the image of an ordinary single father and a lifesaver. Qin Longjun, who already had other plans in his heart, nodded after thinking about it, and pretended that he had done it himself. Everything is casually speaking,

"Well, then there is no problem. I know an old friend who often drinks together at the foot of the mountain. His name is Laota. He is now working as a postman in the post office in the county. Fourteen county towns near the Aba Highway delivered letters.

"..."

"Tomorrow morning, if everyone happens to get up early, we can take his ride down together. This way the road will be faster and safer, and you don't have to go back and forth with that clay doll by yourself. This will help the wound on your leg heal. It's better too."

This sentence was obviously aimed at the incident that he and the clay doll ran out of Fan Village quietly during the day. Jin Suoyang knew in his heart that he had good intentions, so after hesitating and thinking, he quickly said something to him very solemnly Thanks.

And realizing that he deliberately sold favors to him tonight will definitely help his personal image a lot.

An Ran was enjoying the reunion at this moment, and suddenly felt in her private heart that it was actually surprisingly good to just sit and talk with him at such a big night. , Leaning against the wall and looking at the moonlight of the two, he casually said,

"No, I should thank you for the flowers. In fact, no one has given me such beautiful flowers for many years."

When he said this, his tone seemed to be nostalgic, cherished and liked from the bottom of his heart, and his face was stunned for a moment. Jin Suoyang looked at him gently stroking the delicate winter red flower with his fingertips, and for some reason, his heart also felt warm. Softened a bit.

But for some reason, they obviously looked strange to each other. Before tonight, they were complete strangers, and they had never met before in a world where there was an intersection.

He was always unexpectedly familiar with this man who was as mysterious as the winter red flower in front of him but also had a strong fragrance. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but uttered a sentence with a complicated and curious mood.

"Qin Gentiana, where did you come from before you came to Dongshan? Why...know so many things that have never been recorded in ancient books?"

Hearing this, the short-haired man who slightly raised his gray eyes and looked at the white-haired young man just squinted his eyes and replied slowly on a whim.

"Have you heard the story of the dragon turning back?"

"……No."

"Then when you know this story one day, you will know where I come from."

"..."

"Good night, Jin Suoyang, thank you for the flowers."

The voice fell, and the conversation between the two of them almost ended here.

Until this night, the two finally bid farewell and separated, and each climbed down the ladder from the wall of Fan Xi's house to return to their house separated by a wall and a dry well.

Lying back on the bed with a lot of thoughts, the white-haired young man took the clay doll to the pillow and then faced the decaying beams and the silent night thoughtfully, as well as the still entangled nose. Huaxiang had such a dream, and dreamed of a poem.

……

【15 years ago】

【Shady morning】

【vaguely】

【clear farewell】

【Every night, you in my dream】

【Dream is you】

【Wake up with the pillow, I don't think it's you】

【Other people, accompanied by you into my dream】

【How can you be so good】

[How can you be like this. 】
