Chapter 66: The Shape of Happiness (5)
"I always use escape to protect myself, but I hurt irrelevant people unknowingly. I always use my amnesia as an excuse to destroy the happy life they deserve. In fact, I just don't want more people to be hurt because of me. For me who has no memory of the past, I don't mind what happened in the past, because it is already in the past, but I am so scared, so scared that what the monk said will become a reality. I have vaguely felt it. First it was the King of Zhou, and now it is the Prince of Jing. With the power of Zhou, it is entirely possible. I don't want to be like that. I don't want to be a person who will bring disaster. I just want to find myself again—"
The pain contained in the silent crying is unimaginable to Xiuying. She has never known what kind of unknown pain Yinyin is hiding. At this moment, she has completely understood that it seems ordinary, but it is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. The pain that Yinyin bears is difficult for ordinary people to understand and endure. Although Xiuying cannot understand this pain, she can understand Yinyin who is tortured by this pain. It must be very, very painful, right? However, even when she is suffering alone, no one can really relieve her worries. When she needs it most, there is no one who can go deep into her heart to accompany her... Xiuying turned her head away, looking at Yinyin's expression, she couldn't help but shed tears. In her heart, she was calling, calling the person that Yinyin was looking forward to. If Zhao Ziheng was there at this time, the result would be different, right?
She dared not cry loudly for fear of being held hostage. Silent crying was far more painful than crying out loud. In addition to crying to vent, Yinyin could not find any other way to release her accumulated depression. If she could choose , if the person in her heart could be with her now, if Feng Qinghan was the person she had been looking for, perhaps she would not be tortured by the pain. Even if it was only once or in a dream, she wanted to rely on the arms of the person in her heart. The person she had forgotten, the only thing she could not forget was the remaining memory given by that person, which was his warm embrace. So Yinyin knew that if it was really that person, he would definitely give her comfort and happiness, but who was that person? And where was he? While searching, she had to bear her own mental pressure. How long could she persist in such a life?
She thought she could be strong, but now, a corner of her heart, unknown to her, began to disintegrate this strength, so she didn't know how long she could hold on, but she continued. What she was really looking for was not the memory of the past, but the figure of the person buried deep in her heart...
“Who?”
With a shout, the entire team stopped, and of course the carriage that Yin Yin was riding in did the same.
"What's going on?"
The car stopped so suddenly that Xiuying and Yinyin were both affected. Before they knew it, it was not dark yet. The team was traveling through a deep forest, so it was dark all around. Xiuying lifted the curtain of the car and looked around. It seemed that there was no one around. What was that shout just now?
They didn't shout just because they saw someone. The leading Zuo Yu looked around vigilantly. He shouted only when he sensed any movement. His intuition told him that there must be someone around. Seeing Zuo Yu's reaction, the other guards also became more alert.
Because of the darkness, nocturnal animals such as owls, flying squirrels, and snakes also began to become active, and their voices were heard all around, which proved that darkness was about to fall. The mixed animal sounds in this silent forest seemed a little eerie...
"Master Zuo?"
Zuo Yu did not respond to his subordinates' calls, but just focused on the things around him. His intuition was not wrong, he knew that he was being monitored, and the other party was definitely not an ordinary person.
"Send the order, speed up the breakthrough of this forest."
"Yes! Speed up!!"
Zuo Yu gave an order, and after he rode forward on horseback, the team also started moving again. He knew that with only less than a hundred men, they had absolutely no chance of winning in this gloomy and dark forest. Since there were enemies, there must be an ambush, so they had to leave here before the other side made any move.
It had only been two days since Yin Yin left, but Weicheng had already fallen into an unprecedented panic due to the plague. The infected areas were shrouded in the aura of death. The plague was spreading, and the number of people infected or dead was constantly rising. The situation was beyond Zhou Yan's control, and the speed of the plague infection was beyond Zhou Yan's imagination...
Inside Prince Jing’s Mansion.
"This is ridiculous. What is going on? Why is the infection spreading so quickly?"
Zhou Yan roared, and no one in the hall dared to say a word. Only an official who looked like a civil servant walked up to the crowd and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, this plague came too suddenly and fiercely. At first, we thought that the scope of infection could be controlled, but the speed of infection was too unexpected. The reason why the scope has expanded to this point is that I think it is just like there are infected people in ways we don’t know about. It is not related to the initial infection area, but it is not ruled out that those who have been infected with the virus left before they appeared, and were infected in new areas after they appeared. At first, I thought so, but this possibility has been overturned. It only takes one day for an outsider to be infected and show signs, and it shouldn’t appear in a few days."
"so what?"
Zhou Yan said coldly that what he wanted to hear was not theory, but results.
