abnormal sea area

Lu Qinglai's question did not move Zhou You.Zhou You turned his head to the side and looked at Lu Qinglai carefully.

There was no emotion in his gaze, but for no reason, it made Lu Qinglai's hair stand on end.He thought of the things that Zhou You did in his head, the pain caused by him went deep into his soul, and often woke him up in nightmares in the middle of the night—but after the pain, Zhou You would always comfort him, in his "sea area" Libu laid down the beautiful scenery that he could never see in this life.

Pleasure is as intense and as inescapable as pain.

He loves to travel, begging to be approached by a kind of frenzy that cannot be explained at all.If Zhou You let him dive into the deep sea to salvage a sunken ship, even if he doesn't know how to swim or dive, even if there are countless giant sharks parading around the sunken ship, even if there is a curse at the bottom of the sunken ship that can make him fall into the abyss forever, he is willing go.As long as Zhou You let him go, he would risk his life and run over there.

But somewhere in his heart, in a corner of his already utterly chaotic "sea", he heard a small voice asking himself: Why?

Why are you obsessed with him, why do you love him, why would you rather use all despicable means to get a kiss from Zhou You?

Even if this is a kiss that is only allowed to fall on the top of the shoe or the bottom of the trousers.

Lu Qinglai couldn't think about it.He knows the answer, but he enjoys everything that Zhou You gives him, such as pain, such as the illusion of love, such as the fallacy that pleasure must be accompanied by pain.

"Why would I give up on you?" Zhou You finally spoke.

His voice was like the smoothest silk, Lu Qinglai listened in a daze, and only smiled after a while: "Really?"

"Ms. Lu, you are doubting me." Zhou You reached out to touch Lu Qinglai's ear, and Lu Qinglai shrank his neck almost reflexively. This action made Zhou You laugh out loud, "Are you afraid?"

Lu Qinglai's body was very stiff, but his heartbeat gradually became faster.Touching ears is a signal that Zhou You is about to cruise his "sea area". He is looking forward to it, but also afraid.

Zhou You pinched Lu Qinglai's earlobe.The blue-white light coldly illuminated the white hairs on Lu Qinglai's head and the fine wrinkles on his face.He is ten years older than Zhou You, but at this moment, like Zhou You's servant, he dare not move because of his master's approach.

"We've known each other for so long... Teacher Lu, you haven't changed much." Zhou You said softly, "When Lu Quan first met you, you were not as obedient as you are now."

Lu Qinglai didn't expect him to mention this matter.

"If you hadn't saved me, I might have died in Luquan." Zhou You said with a smile, "You are my benefactor, Teacher Lu. How could I give up on you?"

Lu Qinglai's lips trembled, and he made a thin voice: "You don't lie to me."

"I won't lie to you." Zhou You got up and approached him, and at a distance almost close to his face, he spoke softly, "Have I ever lied to you? Didn't I say that after the matter is over, I will tell you what is going on in Luquan?" Is there a secret?"

He got too close, and Lu Qinglai suddenly became agitated.But he didn't dare to move, he just stared at Zhou You's eyes, his eyes fell on his black pupils and slender eyelashes.

"Zhang Xiao is back, which means that Xie Zijing's 'sea' can be restored." Zhou You said, "Once his 'sea' is restored, they will immediately know what happened to Luquan that day and why he died so much. Many people."

A weird smile gradually appeared on Zhou You's face.

"Then they'll go to Deer Springs, they're bound to go, right?" he laughed. "They'll go under Deer Springs...in hell."

He suddenly became hideous, grabbed Lu Qinglai by the collar and shouted: "What have I been through, I want them to taste it too! I want everyone like you and me to taste it all!"

Lu Qinglai was taken aback by his rage, and quickly grabbed his hand: "Zhou You... don't be angry, listen to me, Zhou You..."

It took more than a minute for Zhou You to calm down.

Lu Qinglai has been with him for many years, and only knows that the word "Zhou You" is like a spell, which can quickly heal all the violence and pain of the person in front of him.He always felt that Zhou You's name was not that simple, but no matter how he asked, Zhou You was unwilling to reveal half of it.

"... traveling around."

Lu Qinglai heard a soft sigh from Zhou You's heavy breathing.

Qin Ge and Zhang Xiao walked through the passage of the closet and approached the ruins outside.

Xie Zijing, who was wearing a school uniform, stood far away, apparently not intending to approach the two of them.

"What should I do?" Qin Ge asked Zhang Xiao.

Zhang Xiao looked at him: "Are you sure you can do it? Do you need my help?"

Qin Ge shook his head: "No need. I've memorized all the information you gave me, and the principle... I already knew it early in the morning."

Zhang Xiao nodded, turned around and walked towards Xie Zijing.Qin Ge hesitated for a moment, walked through the passage again, and returned to the small room.

This process must be completed by himself.He didn't want Zhang Xiao to touch all the memories and feelings related to him in this room.

A slight voice came from behind, and Xie Zijing also came back and stood aside silently.

He is so young.Qin Ge actually couldn't remember what kind of sentinel he handed the flower to that day.He couldn't remember Xie Zijing's appearance, so he could only look for it from the photos in the drawer and the self-awareness in front of him.

Xie Zijing said that his house is gone, and he himself is completely alone.

When the "sea area" recovers, the 18-year-old Xie Zijing will completely disappear from here.Qin Ge will never see him like this again.

Xie Zijing stared blankly at him walking towards him, opened his arms, and hugged himself in his arms.

Usually Xie Zijing was half a head taller than him, and when he hugged Qin Ge, Qin Ge would feel as if he was being firmly protected by his sentries.But now, he is stronger than the 18-year-old Xie Zijing. The young man's muscles are very strong, but Qin Ge still feels that he and Xie Zijing have switched, and now he is protecting Xie Zijing.

He kissed Xie Zijing's ear and whispered, "I love you."

Xie Zijing trembled in his arms: "Huh?"

Qin Ge let go of him and looked into his eyes: "You know that, don't you?"

Xie Zijing nodded slowly, his still childish face gradually blushed with embarrassment.

Qin Ge kissed his lips, and the suppressed emotion in his heart was about to overflow from his body like being boiled by a hot fire.

He let go of Xie Zijing's shoulder, turned around, walked to the desk, and picked up the photo frame.He looked at the photo frame, as if he had to keep every detail of it firmly in his heart, and then he pressed the photo frame against his chest, bit by bit, into his body.

"Qing Ge!"

Xie Zijing called his name behind him.The name was also like a spell, which made Qin Ge feel sad.He grabbed "The Sentinel and His Six Guides", and the self on the cover extended a finger to Xie Zijing, lighting up his life.This is the moment God endowed Adam with a soul.He hurriedly put the book into his arms, and the book dived into his body like falling into the water.

Then there were the small ornaments. Qin Ge held the panda, sand cat and werewolf in his hands, watching them shatter and collapse into fine dust, which was absorbed by his body.

The drawer can be easily opened this time.He picked up Xie Zijing's photo and couldn't help but kiss the young sentinel in the photo who didn't look at the camera at all.

He was looking at himself, and he was looking at himself at that moment.Qin Ge thought to himself, he knew it too late, it would have been better if it had been earlier... If it had been earlier, at least he wouldn't be so scared now.

The photo crumbled under his lips, and shards of fine snow fell into his wet, red eyes.

The third drawer is the bouquet of flowers.When Qin Ge picked it up, the bouquet suddenly trembled, and all the petals shook off instantly, flying up in the windless room.

He heard Xie Zijing's voice from behind: "These things... will all disappear?"

"Well." Qin Ge replied, "The house does not exist, and everything that depends on the house will disappear."

Xie Zijing said firmly in a voice between a teenager and a young man, "No, they won't all disappear."

"I know...maybe." Qin Ge replied in a low voice, "...so, let me remember them for you first."

He reached out to touch the poster on the wall, and as soon as his fingertip touched the edge of the poster, the poster disappeared.Various colors of mist escaped from the wall, instantly filling this small space.The wind coming from nowhere gradually became stronger and stronger, and the petals and mist were all stirred up, forming a huge vortex.Qin Ge and Xie Zijing stood in the whirlpool, staggering.

Qin Ge wanted to comfort Xie Zijing and tell him that everything would be over soon.He may feel intense physical and mental pain, after all, these things have been with him for too long, but when he fully wakes up, the pain will disappear like these memories, like ice melting in a river, like a river falling into the ocean, No more ripples will be caused.

Before he could speak, he was hugged tightly by Xie Zijing.The strong uneasiness made the young man feel a sense of crisis. He looked at Qin Ge in horror, and when he opened his mouth, it was the low and hoarse voice that Qin Ge was already familiar with: Qin Ge——

He also disappeared.

The crazily surging mist rolled everything that could be rolled in the small space, bookcases, wardrobes, desks, bicycles and beds by the wall, everything was shattered.The room was crumbling, but stubbornly refused to crack.

The sharp invisible objects were caught in the whirlwind, piercing Qin Ge's skin.He doesn't feel pain.Something deeper than physical pain was drilling into his body, beating and taking root in his head.He braved the whirlwind and walked towards the small window with white light.

The rain is getting heavier.Zhang Xiao was drenched from head to toe, and his surging mental and physical strength was spreading across the boundless ruins. A nimble and lively little beast was running around, and everywhere it stepped, smelly stagnant water No longer surging, but the ground trembled slightly.

Zhang Xiao kept staring at the small house in the distance.Square and square, it is both a refuge and a cage.

Xie Zijing stayed in the house all the time, as long as he didn't want to, he didn't need to go into the ruins.His "sea area" has been destroyed, but life is still as usual, as long as he does not leave the shelter, everything is peaceful and beautiful enough.

Being forcibly pulled back into the rubble was never going to feel good.

He suddenly heard a clear cracking sound.

Like someone smashed the glass from the inside of the room.

Zhang Xiao immediately stood up and ran towards the room.He stopped after a few steps.The originally solid room was being gradually swallowed by a whirlwind from the inside: the wall was shattered, and the howling wind brought the thick mist high into the sky and scattered in all directions.

The petals of the yellow rose fell on Zhang Xiao's palm, and soon disappeared without a trace. Heavy snow fell in the "sea area", heavy snow as fine as dust.The heavy rain mixed with heavy snow made Zhang Xiao shiver from the cold.

"Qing Ge?"

The whirlwind disappeared, and the place where the room was located was empty, except for Qin Ge standing there.

He was in a mess, and his skin exposed to the whirlwind was full of fine scratches. "What's going on?" He smiled at Zhang Xiao with difficulty, "It's only my consciousness that entered the 'sea', will the consciousness also be injured?" He looked down at the bloodstains on the back of his hands and arms.

Zhang Xiao held Qin Ge's hand.

Because your own consciousness has lost the ability to resist the damage in the "sea", and you are exhausted.He didn't say anything, but held Zhang Xiao's hand tightly.

The scar on Qin Ge's arm gradually disappeared. He was half surprised, half sighed: "Mr. Zhang, it doesn't hurt anymore."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he couldn't hold back immediately, and tears immediately dripped uncontrollably on the back of Zhang Xiao's hands.

Zhang Xiao hurriedly hugged him in his arms, letting Qin Ge bury his head on his shoulder.Qin Ge didn't make a sound, but twitched his shoulders, as if his body was shaking slightly because of the cold.

"It won't disappear." Zhang Xiao told him gently, "How can something that already exists in the 'sea' disappear? It will remain in memory forever. It's just that Xie Zijing may not remember it for a while. stand up."

The powder-like debris covered the sky and slowly fell in the cracks of the rain.

"Good boy, it's okay." Zhang Xiao patted him on the shoulder and then on the head, "Go away. I'll clear these ruins first."

According to their original plan, Zhang Xiao had to clean up the ruins in Xie Zijing's "sea area", and the subsequent reconstruction was more complicated, and it could not be solved by a single cruise.

Qin Ge never looked up, he thanked Zhang Xiao in a low voice, and after a while, he disappeared in the "sea area".

Zhang Xiao walked into the empty ground.After the room disappeared, a square of scorched black land was left behind. Standing in this land, he summoned his spiritual body back.

His loyal little beast snuggled up beside him, rubbing its little head against his palm.

"let us start."

In the sourceless and endless cold rain, one person and one beast stepped forward.

Everywhere they walked, blood seeped into the ground, the ruins turned into ashes, and the vitality that had been suppressed in the "sea area" was eagerly coming out from under the soil layer.

Gao Qiong was not attentive enough when performing security work, he kept staring at the sand cats outside the small window above his head.

His wolf was also not attentive enough, not only staring at the sand cat, but also licking its wolf teeth with its wolf tongue from time to time.

Unmoved, the sand cats lowered their heads and stared at the wolf. They all showed their little paws and licked them with grinning teeth.

The mixed atmosphere of spirit and body in the room suddenly changed. When Gao Qiong turned his head, he happened to see Qin Ge kneeling on the ground.

"Where's Zhang Xiao?" Gao Qiong glanced at Zhang Xiao who was holding Xie Zijing's hand with his eyes closed beside the recliner.

"We'll have to wait a little longer..."

Qin Ge's expression was very bad, Gao Qiong took him aside: "You go out to find a doctor first? People from [-] are waiting outside."

Qin Ge refused.He endured a strong sense of dizziness and vomiting, and sat down by the wall.He wanted to wait for Xie Zijing to wake up.

It's like waiting for a trial.

Zhang Xiao's consolation did not help Qin Ge.

Xie Zijing's feelings for him are like water without a source, a tree without roots, and an exquisite castle built in the void.He was afraid that if the bottom wooden bar was taken away, the pavilion would collapse.

Human memory is too complex.Even if some memories exist, it is normal to be unaware of them for a lifetime.

Qin Ge buried his head on his arms, and suddenly heard the sound of panting.

Gao Qiong's wolf stood in front of him, hesitated for a while, and licked his head with its tongue.

Qin Ge: "..."

Thankfully you are spiritual.He thought to himself, if he were a real wolf, he would lose a piece of his scalp after licking it.

That wolf was a species that Qin Ge couldn't recognize at once.He stared at the wolf for a while, and motioned him to go away, to give himself a little time and space to grieve.

Seeing that he was indifferent, Fat Wolf didn't know whether it was because of excitement, or because he wanted to show his intimacy with humans, and got closer.It looked up at the sand cats above its head. Several sand cats stared down at it. It flicked its tail and happily licked Qin Ge again.

Qin Ge didn't have time to be sad: "Captain Gao...you wolf..."

Gao Qiong: "It has become a habit to lick whoever it likes."

He didn't stop him, Fat Wolf became more and more excited, his two shiny round eyes almost looked like cross-eyed Qin Ge.

Qin Ge had seen this wolf show off in a skill competition inside the Crisis Office, but now he was completely frightened by the strong contrast and was at a loss.The wolf was too active, walking around him, completely distracting him.

Soon, the wolf found a small thing hanging in his pocket.

It's a soft rubber lion head.

Qin Ge grabbed it in his hand: "No...you can't play with this."

While arguing with the wolf, there was movement from the couch.Gao Qiong bounced up almost immediately, and approached Zhang Xiao in two or three steps.

Zhang Xiao rubbed his temples, obviously very tired.

"Exactly 90 minutes." He glanced at his watch, "Xie Zijing is about to wake up."

"Are you okay?" Gao Qiong asked, "Has he recovered?"

"All the ruins have been cleaned up." Zhang Xiao smiled, "But to complete the reconstruction, Qin Ge's help is needed."

Qin Ge had also stood up and walked to Zhang Xiao's side in a few steps with an eager look on his face.

"Qin Ge, I hope you will mainly complete this step of rebuilding." Zhang Xiao said, "Rebuilding the 'Sea Territory' requires entering Xie Zijing's spiritual world many times, and communicating with his self-awareness. His current mental state and The memory recovery situation is still unstable, and there is no way to support two guides entering at the same time, so you are the main force."

Qin Ge nodded repeatedly.

"Calm down." Zhang Xiao patted his face, "You are going to rebuild a 'sea area' for your sentinels, and no one can do it except you."

The three of them waited in the room for a while.Zhang Xiao and Gao Qiong tried their best to distract Qin Ge's attention, and told him about the matter between Fei Lang and Zhang Xiao's spiritual body.Qin Ge smiled for a while, and fell silent for a while.

Xie Zijing moved on the recliner, and finally opened his eyes.

The drowsiness caused by the sedative could not disappear from his body for a while, his limbs were heavy, and it seemed that he couldn't even lift his head.

He put his hands on the recliner and slowly sat up, seeing someone approaching him in the empty room.

Xie Zijing raised his eyelids, rubbed his eyes, and slowly scanned the three people in front of him.

His eyes flicked across Qin Ge without stopping.

"Do you know where this is?" Zhang Xiao asked in a low voice, "Do you know who I am?"

"...Crisis handling?" Xie Zijing answered uncertainly, "Scheduler... Zhang Xiao."

"What about you? Who are you yourself?"

"Xie Zijing." His head was dizzy and confused, "I'm sorry, I have a headache..."

The severe pain in his head made him hug his head and bend over, and something in his pocket hit his waist and abdomen.Xie Zijing took out that thing, it was a small notepad.He put the notebook on the recliner, took a deep breath, and tensed his nerves to fight the pain.

"Qinge, you call the doctor in first."

Hearing Zhang Xiao speak, he raised his head subconsciously.Behind Zhang Xiao, a young guide was watching him.Xie Zijing's vision was blurred, his vision was narrow and constantly shaking, he couldn't see clearly the appearance of the guide.

"This is Qin Ge." Zhang Xiao said, "He and I will help you restore the 'sea area'."

Xie Zijing nodded, squinting his eyes, trying to see the young guide clearly: "Hello...thank you."

The guide didn't speak, but nodded at him, turned and left the room.As more and more people flooded into the room, the doctor checked his heart rate and blood pressure, and pressed patches on his temples and chest.Xie Zijing had no power to resist, but he was still conscious and able to climb onto the stretcher by himself.

"Xie Zijing, you don't want it anymore?" Gao Qiong asked suddenly, "Isn't this yours?"

Xie Zijing turned his head and saw a small notepad in his hand.

"...I...I don't know."

Gao Qiong: "You just took it out of your pocket."

He glanced at the cover of the notepad.

"It's yours." Gao Qiong smiled, "There is also a rabbit head drawn on it."

Xie Zijing: "...my spiritual body...is a lion."

Gao Qiong threw the notepad to him, and Xie Zijing grabbed it subconsciously.

The cover did draw a rabbit head, with long ears and round eyes, and an X for the rabbit's mouth.

Xie Zijing didn't deny it anymore.He felt that the notepad was indeed his own, and the rabbit was also drawn by himself.

Putting the small notepad in his arms, he was carried out of the room on a stretcher.

"Go to the hospital for two days and observe the situation." He heard the doctor say this.

There were many people standing in the corridor outside the room, Xie Zijing silently glanced at them.Everyone seems to have vague impressions, but none of them are clear.

Among these people, there was no Qin Ge who had just left the room.

The author has something to say: Qin Ge wants to fulfill the promise he made to himself: to rebuild the "sea area" for his sentinels.
