I collect cultural relics in the human world

The restarted vehicle is like a two-leaf boat, bumping and undulating among the endless waves again, crossing the huge waves, and riding away in the wind.

The car was much more stable than before, and it was a comfortable ride.Lao Chaofeng still had his eyes closed. Out of sight, He Si woke up from an uneasy sleep and reluctantly opened her eyes.

Its daybreak.

There were no nightmares that night, but He Si still didn't sleep well. The scene under the Jingxuan Corridor has been lingering in her mind. The wind and sand swept from the fan, dragging her into a mirage in the vast desert. What did it mean? Woolen cloth?

He Si later traveled to many places alone, partly to visit historical sites for academic reasons, and partly to fill up the long and lonely time.However, most of her footprints wandered around the Jiangnan and Central Plains areas rich in historical relics, and she rarely set foot in the desert.It's not that there are no ancient buildings in the desert, but that these ancient buildings are too old and are not within the scope of her study. Those ruins have penetrated into the field of archeology.

However, she once traveled to Dunhuang. That ancient world has disappeared for a long time, but it has been passed down forever through various media. People always have a lingering desire for those civilizations that have disappeared, and they are always pursuing them. We work hard on the road, but for those who have disappeared, it seems that there is only endless forgetfulness left.

But the scene in the dream...

He Si was lying on the bed, and the episode of traveling alone came back to her memory.

It was her first time traveling alone, so she chose the Northwest Great Ring Road, a place that was very far away from her life in both time and space. She was somewhat like a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.

From Xining to Wulan, Delingha, Dachaidan, Dunhuang and Zhangye, to the south of the Yangtze River beyond the Great Wall, the sound of camel bells could be heard. Perhaps because she was walking through heavily developed scenic spots and crowded with tourists, the scenery she saw was not at all like in a fantasy world. The desert was as vast, majestic and ruthless as it was beautiful, but it was not like that illusion that gave her a strange throbbing.

He Si remembered that it was during that trip that she saw the Danxia landform for the first time - the Danxia landform that made her and Qin Jian bond.It was also during that trip that she saw the desert and the clear spring in the desert - Crescent Moon Spring for the first time. A crescent moon with water filled with water hung on the clear yellow sand. She stood on Mingsha Mountain and saw the heaven and earth before her eyes. Switched positions.

That was the first year since grandma left.

Grandma didn't leave until she got her college admission notice. The neighbors who helped her said she felt at ease when she left. But He Si knew that grandma was not willing to leave. She was not willing to leave her alone in the world.But now, she is no longer alone. She has someone she wants to cherish, and this person happens to cherish her too.

only……

He Si wiped her tears. She thought of the tortoise shell again, the loquat tree and the old man who turned into dust under the moon.Deng Lin is obviously very old, but the only person he cares about is Li Jiahui.

How forgetful I am when I am old, but I do n’t forget Acacia.

In addition to missing her, Deng Lin left her with one last word - be careful of those around you.

He Si's emotions, which had softened just because of Qin Jian, became tense again, and the anxiety in her heart became heavier and heavier.She suddenly remembered that the wind and sand that arose for no reason last night came from the lacquer fan, and Qin Jian took her to make that lacquer fan.

That year, the answer she hoped to find on that trip was finally buried in the yellow sand. Maybe it was just a trip in the first place, and the trip was just passing through. There is no answer in passing.Now she has experienced so many illusions that are both true and false, but still can't find the answer, but He Si knows that those illusions need answers.

For example, be careful about the people around you. Who do you mean?
In Jingxuan yesterday, she told Qin Jian that she didn't care, but did she really not care?
Her Charles Bonner Syndrome only became serious after meeting Qin Jian.Those illusions, numerous crises, and the storm centered on her also started from that time.

Qin Jian said that she was the only person after Xiao Shitou who could see through the God of Service. She thought this was her unique ability, and she was even proud of it for a time. But what if Qin Jian specifically asked her to see through the true identity?The deeper the incident progresses, the more and more doubts arise. Qin Jian's show of weakness seemed to be doubting himself, but what if he was retreating to advance and clear away the suspicion?He is the Panlong Mirror, and she was once the person in the mirror. The love relationship thousands of years ago was all said by Qin Jian. Is there really such a mysterious thing? What if it is all fake?

If this is the case, her rhetoric about trust, hand-in-hand, and fearlessness in front of Qin Jian is just a joke in Qin Jian's eyes. Who is the person who is trapped in a cocoon?

But with such an agency calculating every step of the way, what exactly does Qin Jian want from her?He Si couldn't figure out what value she had in her that was worthy of others' efforts.

I feel uneasy every time.

He Si was forced to close her eyes again by this melancholy. She avoided thinking and the truth, but Qin Jian, who was riding the wind and waves, opened his eyes.

Fan Yu immediately noticed this change and asked, "Uncle Qin, what's wrong?"

"Someone seems to be trapped."

"Who?" Fan Yu looked at the serious Lao Chaofeng, his heart tightened, and then he watched helplessly as the people around him disappeared.

"Uh..." A meaningless sound came out of his throat, and when he saw Jun Jiuzi, he suppressed the rest of his words.

The car was already on the top beam, looking for a route downhill.The slope is very steep, the sand is soft, the friction is very small and the fluidity is strong, so the tires can easily lose adhesion.And try not to apply the brakes, you can only go with the flow and rely on the engine to brake. Otherwise, braking will easily cause the sand in front of the tire to pile up into a sandbag, and the tire will collapse directly.

Fan Yu looked at Jun Jiuzi who was concentrating and chose to act as if nothing had happened. Not only did he close his mouth, he also closed his eyes - who could let Uncle Qin be so oblivious to his love?

Fan Yu's guess was correct. At this moment, Qin Jian was already standing at the head of He Si's bed. A silent black shadow covered He Si's figure, but she closed her eyes and was not aware of it.

"A Si."

Qin Jian's voice was gentle and low, echoing in the small bedroom. He Si was startled. When she opened her eyes and saw Qin Jian, her first reaction was - as expected, you can't talk to people during the day.

"You...why are you here?" She said and jumped out of the bed.

"I heard Ah Si's cry for help."

"Help?" He Si was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he had been holding the phone in his hand, and the metal piece had been warmed by the temperature of his palm. So, had he heard all the chaotic thoughts just now?He Si couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed since she had clearly made a promise to him.

Qin Jian didn't care, he lowered his eyes and looked at the girl lying on the bed and said, "Actually, Ah Si is right..."

"That's not what I meant," Qin Jian was immediately interrupted by He Si eagerly before he finished speaking, "I was just deducing some possibilities."

"I know, it's good for you to be like this," as if to comfort the person in front of him, Qin Jian also sat down by the bed and continued, "I can't even trust myself, so how can I demand others to trust me unconditionally."

"Ah?" He Si blinked, not sure whether what Qin Jian said was ironic.Qin Jian smiled easily, rubbed He Si's messy hair just after crawling out of bed, looked seriously into He Si's eyes and said, "It's precisely because Ah Si doesn't have a love brain that I dare to let go." Love, because I know that even if one day I become a bad person who cannot control myself, Ah Si will protect myself, right?"

He Si stared into Qin Jian's eyes quietly, a burst of sweetness mixed with sourness surged in her heart, and the stormy waves that had not stopped for a long time calmed down. Then she nodded firmly: "I will protect myself, and I will protect you."

For some reason, He Si suddenly felt dizzy as soon as she spoke. The pain stretched from her left temple to her left eye socket. The scene in front of her right eye was still this small bedroom, but in front of her left eye, something she had never seen before appeared out of thin air. Scenes I’ve seen.

An ancient girl wearing a goose-yellow skirt and coat stood under the vermilion courtyard wall, with a pair of coral beaded hairpins on her head that made her skin look even more beautiful than snow.Opposite her was a young general in armor. The armor covered with knife marks shone coldly in the sun.The girl's figure is as graceful as a flower, the boy's figure is as tall and straight as a pine, the man is talented and the woman is beautiful, and they are a pair of beautiful women.

What followed the illusion was a vague conversation between the two.

"You have to protect yourself."

"I will protect myself and you."

It was exactly the same as their conversation just now, except that the gender of the words was changed.

The voice disappeared, and He Si saw the young general take out a mirror from the armor close to his chest and hand it to the girl. The girl took out an exquisite sachet from her wide and elegant sleeves and carefully pinned it to the young man. waist.

This was a completely unfamiliar scene, but it seemed like someone's memory. He Si tried hard to move her left eyeball, and finally saw the appearance of the young man from the ancient girl's field of vision.

"Is this?" Her face turned pale, and she stretched out her hands to grab in the void, as if she wanted to see more clearly, but the pain in her left eye suddenly disappeared, and all the illusions that originated in the void returned to the void again.

"What did you see?" Qin Jian grabbed her hand, trying to see her hallucination through the connection of his palms like the previous times, but it didn't work this time.

"why?"

"what exactly is it?"

He Si was speechless for a moment and then said to Qin Jian, "Song Zhaoxuan, why does that young general have the same face as Song Zhaoxuan?"

Qin Jian's eyes flashed with astonishment. For a moment, neither of them could digest the news, and the originally quiet space fell into a dead silence.

Impossible, Qin Jian instinctively resisted this answer. He always thought that his past was just a vague memory wandering in his mind, which had long since disappeared without a trace under the wash of time.He was a witness to that story and a gravekeeper.

The moment He Si appeared, his heart, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly started to throb. He could no longer be a bystander and felt like joining a journey for the first time in a thousand years.But it was not love. Qin Jian knew very well that at that time, he and He Si were just curious about the old days and looking forward to recovering their lost memories.

When did you start to care about He Si and Song Zhaoxuan who was rumored to have traveled the world alone for him?

Qin Jian thought about it for a moment, and it seemed that it was the second time he saw that handsome face.

When he first met Song Zhaoxuan, he still looked like the old Chaofeng, and was even mistaken for He Si's father, which made him unhappy.The second time, they met formally with their true identities, with a sense of showing off.Only that time, in addition to seeing Song Zhaoxuan, they also saw Yuan Yuan, who was already dead in their judgment.

Why did I have no impression of him at all at that time?If he is really a young general, he should be able to awaken some of his memories. After all, he is the Panlong Mirror that he carved little by little.If he was not a young general, then why did He Si say this? Could it be that he was thinking about things day by day and dreaming about things at night?In the foggy and unclear situation, Qin Jian suddenly became interested.

"What did you see?" he asked relentlessly.

He Si's face didn't reply yet, she frowned slightly, looked at Qin Jian worriedly and replied: "It should be the time when the young general and the girl give each other tokens."

"So, it's your memory."

"That's not me." He Si shook her head, "It's the memory of that ancient girl from thousands of years ago."

"But..." Qin Jian just wanted to say, "But you are her," but suddenly realized the previous conversation and took back his words.

He Si sat up from the bed completely, frowned slightly, looked at Qin Jian openly and said: "I understand, since that girl is not me, that general is not Song Zhaoxuan. The love relationship a thousand years ago is very important." It’s touching, but it shouldn’t be a fetter for me.”

"But someone just walked into a dead end."

"Those are two different things. Before, I didn't know if you would lie to me. What if I was really blinded by love? I just have to check myself three times a day." He Si smiled playfully, obviously already relaxed.

"I remember that one of the three things I checked about myself every day was making friends, don't you believe it?"

"Yes, so you should also reflect and reflect." The girl said, blinking her shining eyes. Qin Jian couldn't resist for a moment, and unconsciously changed the topic: "You still want to go to the wooden pagoda today."

"Yeah." He Si nodded, "What about you?"

"Originally I wanted to accompany you for a walk around the wooden pagoda. It just so happened that I haven't revisited the scenery here for a long time, but..." Of course Qin Jian couldn't talk about their stay in the desert, so he could only find an excuse and said, "There are still some loose ends regarding Deng Chensha's matter, I have to clean it up."

"Oh." He Si lowered her head, but there wasn't much regret or disappointment in her expression.

Thinking about it, she had hardly participated in the research work these days because of the illusion brought by the tortoise shell, and the progress was far behind. The team tasks all depended on the help of several senior brothers. Now that she thinks about it, she can't help but feel guilty.

Of course Qin Jian also understood what He Si was thinking, and because he was worried about her, he immediately replied: "Then I'll go."

But before he even hit the ground, he suddenly heard a female voice behind him shout: "Wait a minute."
