Gu Zhen and his group stayed in Jinli Town for another five days. When Gu Zhen thought about it later, he had no idea how these five days passed. Jiang Yunxuan's disease gradually improved after drinking He Xuliang's blood. Gu Zhen couldn't bear to tell him the news that Xiao Lian had died, so he had to trick him into going away.

And he himself is like a walking dead without thinking, numbly watching Xiao Lian's small body being burned into that pile of white ashes. In just a few days, shopkeeper Tong lost weight quickly, as if his soul was taken away by someone. , guarding Xiao Lian's spirit seat like a candle in the wind.

Gu Zhen didn't know what to say to her, her eyes only fluctuated slightly when facing He Xuliang, but what made Gu Zhen even more uncomfortable was that there was no resentment, no anger in those eyes, and some were just bottomless of despair.

Maybe she knew that Xiao Lian was destined to not live long, or maybe she knew that she was no match for He Xuliang, nor could she avenge Xiao Lian. Apart from despair, she couldn't feel any other emotions.

Gu Zhen told himself countless times that the mother and son were the same as that night, and I don't know how many people they killed, but when he saw shopkeeper Tong's sad eyes again, Gu Zhen still couldn't calm down. What did they do wrong? It's just that they just want to live.

Why Xiao Lian turned into such an ugly half-human devil, everything is due to Jieyue's ambition, but he can't do anything to Jieyue, he can't start a war because of a certain person or a certain life.He originally thought that he was in a high position and could turn his hands into clouds and rain, but now it seems that his strength is still so weak, and he can't do anything except watch his people struggle in pain.

The weather is getting warmer quickly. Even the poor Taifeng County is blooming with a little bit of greenery and vitality under the spring breeze. It is not cold at night with only single clothes. Gu Zhen sits on the roof of the inn and looks at the sky full of flowers. The stars, chatting with 007 one by one.

007: "Hey, before you complete the mission and come back to life, I'll apply to the headquarters to perform an emotional analysis operation on you."

Gu Zhen asked: "What is that?"

"This is also the first time for me to work on the job. I also heard from my seniors that some hosts have too deep feelings for the world where they perform tasks, and they can't extricate themselves after returning to the real world. In order to avoid this situation, we designed the program. I see you need it."

Gu Zhen smiled weakly and said, "Really?"

007 looked at his sallow complexion and thick dark circles and replied solemnly: "Yes."

Gu Zhen sighed for a long time, and said: "Complete the task... When will it take, I've only got 11 points so far..."

007 comforted: "Don't be so sad, brother, you should get more impression points for the hero."

Hearing He Xuliang's name, Gu Zhen hugged his head in pain, and muttered, "Don't mention him to me!!"

007 thought for a moment, and said: "Actually, I have awakened a new function, which I think will be helpful to you."

Gu Zhen rolled his eyes, obviously lost confidence in his defective product system, so he asked politely: "What function?"

After talking about 007, he played a movie in Gu Zhen's mind, and said: "I have awakened the function of watching dramas, and I can show you videos when you are bored in the future. There are tons of movies for you to choose, popular variety shows, all in the palm of your hand. , sexy anchor, online live broadcast, reader prayer system, you are worth having!"

Gu Zhen: "..."

The corner of Gu Zhen's mouth twitched for a while, and finally said powerlessly: "Then can you not play "The Grudge" for me to read..."

007 was taken aback, and quickly turned off the small movie in his head, explaining: "I'm sorry, this is the most suitable movie for the host to watch based on the system's automatic calculation based on the host's emotions."

Gu Zhen: "..."

What kind of wicked system has calculated that I am suitable for watching "The Grudge" now! I'm falling!

007 said confidently: "In this way, you will feel that Xiao Lian is not dead, but is by your side."

Gu Zhen: "..."

Artificial intelligence is so smart, so smart that I don't know whether to cry or laugh! !

007 said again: "You, don't put too much emotion in here, you are going to leave anyway, what are you doing if you don't feel happy for yourself? Besides, these people and things are all fake. When you go out, these People are nothing more than a few words on white paper, why do you think you should?"

Gu Zhen smiled wryly, "I know...Of course I know...it's just..."

How can people's emotions be so easy to control, not to mention that these people have flesh and blood who can cry and laugh, it's too difficult to keep yourself out of this world...

At this time, there were a few slight rustling sounds behind Gu Zhen. Gu Zhen looked back and found that it was Xiyue. Gu Zhen looked back at her, still a little surprised. He said, "What's the matter, Xiyue, is there something wrong?"

Xiyue paused, took out a few small things from her sleeves, and said, "Xiyue is here to give you these things."

Gu Zhen took a look and found that when they went to look for Suxiang at Huang Yuanwai's house that day, he asked Xiyue to secretly take it from Suxiang. He originally wanted to study what Suxiang did every day, but now he is There was no need for it, these days passed, and he had forgotten about it, only then did he realize that these small toys included two unpainted wooden cranes, and what was even more surprising was a small harmonica.

Gu Zhen was a little surprised. He took the harmonica from Xiyue. It was small and a little rough, but it was indeed a harmonica made of metal. Gu Zhen tried to play it, and it was a little out of tune, but it still surprised him.

Xiyue didn't know what these little things were, so she put them down and was about to leave, but Gu Zhen suddenly called her and said: "Xiyue...do you have anything to do, if you have nothing to do, sit with me for a while, I'll talk to you .”

Xiyue was stunned for a moment, pursed her lips, but in the end she didn't refuse, she sat next to Gu Zhen, but her posture was very stiff, her whole body was tense, Gu Zhen didn't persuade her, the girl's hostility towards her never ceased. At the beginning, I wished I could kill him quickly, but now I can still help him in a crisis, which is already quite a breakthrough.

Gu Zhen played with the wooden crane in his hand, and suddenly said, "Xiyue, do you have a knife on you? Just a small knife for self-defense will do."

Xiyue was nervous for a moment, thinking that he was wary of whether she was carrying a hidden weapon to plot against him, but she didn't expect to turn to the pillow and said: "I want to carve some words on this wooden crane, do you have a knife?"

After hearing this, Xiyue wanted to shake her head, but when she saw Gu Zhen playing with the wooden crane's side face, she was especially misty and gentle under the starlight, she unconsciously stretched her hand into the skirt of her shirt, and when she realized it, she offered a small dagger up to it .

Gu Zhen didn't think much about it, took it over and carved the word "Tong Lian" on the bottom of the wooden crane, but he didn't know how to locate the wooden crane, so he turned the wooden shaft on the top casually and muttered: " Just fly, fly to where you want to go."

Fly to a place where there is no pain.

The little wooden crane flapped its wings and quickly disappeared into the night. Xiyue had never seen a wooden crane before, so it was naturally a bit novel. Gu Zhen looked back at her and smiled: "This is made by the Jieyue people. There is another one for carrier pigeons, give it to you, do you want to write a letter home?"

As he said that, Gu Zhen threw another wooden crane into Xiyue's arms, and Xiyue caught it blankly. Hearing the word "go home" for the first time, he felt a vague sense of belonging in his heart.

Go home... Home, is it Xiangfu?

Xiyue bowed her head for a long while, then shook her head and said, "Mother is blind...and also illiterate."

Gu Zhen was silent for a moment, and then said: "What about Li Anfeng? It's good to write to him."

Xi Yue raised her head in confusion, as if she didn't understand why Li Anfeng was mentioned, and asked instead: "General Li? Why?"

Gu Zhen made a gesture with unclear meaning, and said: "You really don't have any interest in General Li? After all, you are a general of a country, and you also have some interest in you, so you are not interested at all?"

Xiyue lowered her head and remained silent for a while, then turned to stare at Gu Zhen with complicated eyes and said, "Xiyue is no longer a clean body, I dare not expect extravagant expectations."

Gu Zhen: "..."

Okfine, I am talking too much.

Gu Zhen coughed twice again in embarrassment, and forced to change the subject: "Xiyue, let me play this for you?" He shook the harmonica in his hand, Xiyue didn't know what it was, so he could only nodded.

007 said: "Yo, can you play the harmonica?"

Gu Zhen said: "That is, when I was young, my parents sent my children to learn musical instruments. I wanted to learn too, but I couldn't afford it. My grandma loved me so much, she bought me a harmonica and played it myself. I can play it very well. It's over."

After finishing speaking, Gu Zhen pursed his lips and blew a song called "Cong Er Fei".

The harmonica is very rough. This kind of instrument should not appear in this era. Suxiang is probably too smart to make it. The sound is not very accurate, but in this era, no one has heard of the harmonica. No one has ever heard the melody of Chong'er Fei. Gu Zhen looked gentle and looked at the starry sky with lingering eyes. The crisp melody from her mouth was like raindrops hitting Xiyue's heart. After so many years, she actually felt After arriving at the long-lost peace, he was actually beside this dog thief...

The song is over. Gu Zhen rubbed his nose in embarrassment, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I played, I'm a little out of tune, thank you, Xiyue... I'm not in a good mood, I feel better if you sit here for a while."

Xiyue looked away stiffly, nodded, and replied with a complicated expression: "My lord is too serious."

Gu Zhen grinned again, smiling like a 200-jin fat man, at this time there was another rustling sound behind the two of them, Gu Zhen looked up, and it turned out to be He Xuliang.

The expressions of the remaining two people were highly unified in an instant, and their faces were blank.

He Xuliang didn't say much, and said calmly: "I have something to talk to my husband."

Xiyue immediately got up to salute and flew off the roof as soon as she tiptoed. Gu Zhen didn't even want to give He Xuliang a look. He blew up his hair, raised his hand but still didn't have the heart to slap him, just stared at him and said, "Let me go!"
