Rain or shine

25

The dense forest is full of sunshine, the quiet and harmonious streets are fragrant with sweet-scented osmanthus, and a hundred birds are contending around the clear spring water.People passing by are humble and polite.

In the center of the city, inside the palace, it is cold and damp. A huge bronze mirror is placed at the end of the corridor. Skeletons hang high on the dome of the ceiling. Valuable carpets are piled up with sundries, most of which are game controllers. And robotic hands, and dolls that are so worn out that they are stitched together with needles and threads.

The hall is aligned with the position facing the window, and there are soft chairs suspended with chains.The fireplace is lit with a blue fire, and the walls are covered with spoof paintings of celebrities and bloody text in multiple languages, all of which have a sense of threat and intimidation.

The man in the cloak looked around for a long time.

"Teacher, how is it?"

The sudden call made the cloaked man disappear.

The blond boy on the recliner sat up jokingly, looked at the exclusive spiritual mentor and physician of the Zuo family in front of him, blinked, and asked with a raised tone.

"Second Young Master, everything in your mental image is the most direct and honest reflection of your subconscious."

The blond boy snorted coldly, leaned back on the seat, rolled his eyes undisguisedly, adjusted his expression and smiled, "Don't avoid the important things, take the light ones, you've said this too many times, explain it to me."

"Second young master has already constructed this kind of mental picture at the age of seven, and his talents are unique. I will not be able to teach you in a few days." The doctor bowed and did not dare to raise his head. Just now, the second young master of the Zuo family has been able to expel him from the mental landscape. He believes that detecting lies will be a piece of cake. He paused for ten seconds before saying sincerely, "Your world is huge in scale and beautiful in scenery, but the palace in the center But the lights are dim, which proves that you are good at disguising, the attitude of pedestrians means that you are accustomed to being respected, the high seat means arrogance, the flame and blood represent desire, the position of windows and debris proves your strong desire to control, and the other side Bronze mirror, with all due respect, is exactly what you like to observe when you hide yourself in a ugliness."

The boy listened seriously, his eyes sparkled: "I don't deny it."

"Please treat this power with caution, don't use it to torture, conquer, possess, force others to submit, let alone be controlled by it, and set yourself on fire."

"Oh, I'll try my best." Zuo Yaoqing showed an innocent expression, raised her hand up to the center of his brow, and asked lively, "The last question for today, doctor, if I use all my strength now, can I break your spiritual barrier?" ?”

Wake up, dawn.

It's ironic, Zuo Yaoqing thought, people only recall the past when they are powerless.

"A glass of warm water."

The thin figure sat on the bar chair next to him, speaking innocent words in a very gentle voice, which caused a series of ridicules from the people around him.

"Haha, the brat came to the bar to find some water?"

The newcomer who heard the ridicule didn't show much embarrassment on his face, but smiled lightly, and said calmly: "Sorry, I came with my classmates, I don't know much about this place, and I don't know much about drinking. May I ask if there is a fruit with a low degree? Beer or something? Thanks."

At that time, he propped his chin lazily, and turned to look at the newcomer. His soft hair was sticking to the side of his face, his pupils were lake-like blue, his skin was fair and tender, both his temperament and facial features were clean and clean. He wore a white shirt and jeans. It is common for students to dress up and put their arms on the bar counter neatly as if they were listening to a class. He shifted his gaze and caught a glimpse of his friend who ordered a dozen drinks, and sighed helplessly——Zuo Yaoqing was at the lowest point of her life, In a bar that couldn't be more vulgar, I met Karen.

It should be that he stared too blatantly, so the newcomer turned his head.Their eyes met, but it seemed to be delayed for a few seconds, creating an illusion of tranquility.It seems that they are not under the loud rap and lights, but in a cafe by the sea, someone is playing the piano on the terrace, and they look up at each other's seats, passing through the tables and chairs and the crowd, both eyes Raise your glass to indicate that it's like old friends at first sight.

"...Your mental fluctuations are not within a reasonable range."

"Then—" Zuo Yaoqing nodded in response, and pushed the room card in front of him, "Excuse me, please."

Karen's slender and frail fingers touched the card and slid across the room number. His thin wrists were round and smooth, and his nails were rounded and smooth: "Excuse me, but it's not convenient." He replied neither humble nor humble.

Enter the house and close the door.

Karen sat down on the edge of the bed and raised her hand in gesture.Zuo Yaoqing laid her head on Karen's knees in a good manner, and the angle of looking up allowed him to clearly see Karen's neck and earlobes, delicate and soft.

Since entering the bar, Karen has not concealed her identity as a guide, so Zuo Yaoqing can easily perceive how gentle his mental power is.At this moment, his tentacles penetrated into the end of his spirit, but it was more comfortable than he expected, making him seem to be soaked in a hot spring in winter, and every cell clamored to relax its guard.

The once gorgeous spiritual picture has become decadent and embarrassing.

The flowers and trees are withered, the sky is gray and dark, and there is no one inhabited.The gardens of the central palace were overgrown with thorns, and the gates creaked open.

The visitors who stepped into here wore white robes on the floor, and the rain fell from the sky, moistening the dry soil, and soon the rain cleared and the sky turned blue.Wherever he travels, if the boat ripples in the still water, it awakens the revived life.At the two ends of the rainbow, the streets are filled with fragrance, and the dead skin under the new leaves has fallen into mud.

However, the palace remains motionless, as if isolated from a paradise.

The visitor stood at the door, looking in tentatively, and the long black shadow under his feet spread from the white light.

This place is no different from the morgue in the hospital, exuding blood and rancidity, and the visual impact is palpitating.

He walked towards the figure curled up in the corner in the wide hall, squatted down, and put his palm on his forehead.

At the same time, the figure behind him reflected in the mirror was exactly the same as the person in front of him, the only difference was the blood-colored eyes of the person behind him. The visitor turned to look, but the other party snorted coldly and entered the huge bronze mirror.

Karen withdrew her spiritual tentacles, felt cold all over her body, opened her eyes suddenly, only to realize that Zuo Yaoqing was only a few centimeters away from his face, breathing heavily, staring at him with emerald eyes, drooping eyelashes, strong and powerful arms She wrapped her arms around his waist from behind, and fixed her neck skillfully with her palms.

"I'm going to kiss you."

From that day on, Zuo Yaoqing gradually stopped lingering among the flowers and willows, and gave time to the two of them to fill up together.

They meet almost every day, sometimes for walks together, and sometimes for dinner.They talked freely about astronomy and philosophy, exchanged trivial matters of life, and their words were all speculative, and they got to know each other more and more.

Karen is a bit miraculous, Zuo Yaoqing thought, getting along with him was very pleasant and relaxed, all troubles were left behind without thinking, and after the noisy voice in his heart disappeared, his whole body slowly returned to a kind of peace and harmony.

Strictly speaking, they are not lovers, but what they do is not much different from ordinary couples, the temperature when holding hands, the touch of hugging, the kiss of parting-skip the sex link, yes, except for the first day.

Zuo Yaoqing enjoys all kinds of emotions. Different people have different body blends. Sometimes it is a strong need, sometimes it is just a formality. As for the involvement and Karen, Zuo Yaoqing prefers to kiss and stop.

Choose a date.The moon was bright and the wind was clear, and the stars were shining brightly. They met and rented a car to go to the suburbs for the night.

Karen set up the tent, and Zuo Yaoqing lit a fire to grill fish.

They all lay on their backs on the grass. At that time, it was the firefly breeding season by the lake, and there were green spots of light floating in the air.

None of them spoke, and they were silent for a long time, simply staring at the starry sky, even so, they would not be embarrassed.

"Actually, I never formally went to school. Everything was taught by my parents. Chatting with you is just my personal opinion. But my sister has excellent grades in private schools."

"It's not bad. Our family hardly follows the education system. I have two younger brothers and three younger sisters. The older I get, the harder it is to see each other."

"...Jack, I can't heal your mental image." Unlike Zuo Yaoqing, Karen is a traditional healing guide with a strong foundation of spiritual power.

"I know, don't take it to heart."

"Have you ever thought about..."

Before she finished speaking, Zuo Yaoqing turned sideways, fixed her green eyes on him, and asked softly, "You want to go?"

"No, I'll be with you." Karen looked away and sighed slightly.

"Karen, are you unhappy with me?"

"On the contrary, I couldn't be happier, Jack."

The date of Karen's death is his birthday, I seem to have expected it long ago, when I closed my eyes, Zuo Yaoqing was so frank that Zuo Yaoqing recalled their first acquaintance.

It was Sunday, and Zuo Yaoqing stepped into the church wearing a gift as promised. The children in the choir sang hymns, and people sat in their seats and prayed sincerely. Karen came out after the last note, wearing a white robe with a chest Rosary beads hung, under the stained glass windows, the young priest was enveloped in soft light, dipping everyone who begged and answering questions.

Ability [prophecy].

Zuo Yaoqing suddenly realized that although he had long doubted his profound guiding skills, he did not think that he was actually a descendant of the holy clan.

At noon, all the pilgrims left, and Karen dismissed his subordinates. There were only two people in the huge church, bearing the gaze of God and the Virgin.

"Zuo Yaoqing." Karen lowered her eyes and said, "When you step into the church again, you will not be far from restoring your guiding power."

"Is this a prophecy?"

Karen nodded: "The last prophecy."

As soon as the words fell, the hurricane came, the roof of the church collapsed, the floor shook violently, and rubble and stones fell.

click.

Karen's white robe was soaked in red, and her body was hanging in the air, in a posture of being hanged alive.

The momentary weakness almost caused Zuo Yaoqing to collapse, and the time went back to the night when her companion died, her headache was splitting, her face was numb, a big hole was pulled out of her chest, and she was breathing out.

"You deserve it!" The door opened, and a disgraced man broke in and laughed loudly, his eyes were bloodshot and his body was bloated, "You pay for your life, you killed so many people, it's your turn to be sanctioned, enjoy it!"

Zuo Yaoqing's consciousness disappeared at that moment.

During the blank space, his shoulder was pulled back by someone, and the figure stood in front of him.

Bloody pupils.

It was the beginning of his frequent falling into {chaos}.
