Bengtie: Is your pure and beautiful destiny serious?
Chapter 8 Clues to the Past
The journey to Shen Ce Mansion with Jing Yuan was longer than she had imagined.
Jing Yuan was obviously very familiar with Luofu and was a habitual offender of sneaking out. It was hard to say whether he did this when he was a general, but he definitely did so when he was young.
Because on the way back with Cheng An, he passed by small shops and stalls that were not crowded but had good quality, and asked her if she was hungry and if she wanted something to eat.
Cheng An, who really missed proper meals, couldn't resist the temptation. Just as he was about to nod, the shop owner next to him was the first to speak in surprise: "Isn't this the general? It's been a long time since we last saw you. Today our little shop is really prosperous."
It seems that they are old friends, Jing Yuan was not in a hurry, "Yes, it's rare for an old friend to come back to the fairy boat, so I'll take her to fill her stomach first."
The shopkeeper then noticed that there was a shorter girl next to him, who must be the general's friend. She had black hair and black eyes, and her facial features were very Xianzhou-like, but the long sleeves and long pants she wore did not look like Xianzhou style.
But why does this person look familiar to me? It seems like I have just seen him.
The shopkeeper began to think, his eyes accidentally fell on his own jade omen, and a flash of inspiration flashed through his mind -
"Ah, you are the super-strong and beautiful knight who just smashed a star ship to pieces with a brick on the street!" The man suddenly realized that he had just seen the videos and posts posted by others in Yuzhao a few minutes ago, and then he saw the real person!
"What super-strong pure-beautiful knight? Me?" She was really skeptical. Was the word "super-strong" really used to describe her?
"Besides, what brick? That's a pure and beautiful gift!" How could she be as cheap as a street thug? The music box that Kafka's mother gave her could not be reduced to a brick for physical attack. Even if it was used as a brick, it was an enchanted gold-inlaid brick!
Of course, she will find out later that this version is the closest to the truth.
But now she still had a little bit of a weak rebuttal she wanted to say, but the other people in the store couldn't hear it. They only heard the part that the owner was shouting, so the customers in the store who saw the hot post, were at the scene at the time, or were just watching for fun, all cheered.
The psychology is similar to seeing a celebrity right in front of you, and you always have the urge to join in the cheering and shouting.
"This is a case of one strength defeating ten skills. The driver of the Star Cab was spinning around for so many times, but he was shot down in one go."
"Is this true? She looks like a little girl. You can't judge a person by appearance."
"As expected of a pure and beautiful knight, he must train himself every day. This is how hidden masters are."
"I heard her ask the prisoner whether he recognized the pure and beautiful goddess Idrila! What a devout belief! What the book says is actually true!"
"I heard that the Star Raft broke apart, and she even helped block the falling half of the hull so that it didn't hit the Cloud Cavalry. Is that true?"
"It's absolutely true!"
"Thank you Pure Knight!"
Cheng An was stunned. What happened?
Is that what she did they say?
It’s only been a short time, how come it has become so popular?
Seeing Jing Yuan still smiling and looking like he was used to it, Cheng An gave him a thumbs up and said, "This is really how you spread the news in Luofu."
General Jing Yuan was not surprised by praise or criticism: "Thank you for the compliment."
"Why don't we go to Shen Ce Mansion earlier? I'm not so hungry anymore. I think business is more important." Cheng An said.
How could Jing Yuan not understand? He was not difficult to deal with, so he readily agreed.
They traveled much faster without distraction and soon arrived at the Shen Ce Mansion. They entered the gate and passed through the small gate and the courtyard, and came to where Jing Yuan usually worked.
When she opened the door, she could smell the scent of paper and ink mixed with some high-end incense. She only knew it smelled good and could not taste anything else.
Jing Yuan took out a mahogany box from a cabinet with familiarity. It was the size of a palm, but with intricate carvings. At first glance, it looked like a box for precious things.
He opened it without saying anything, and there was only a small metal object inside.
It looks like a young bud with two leaves, with the middle of the bud and leaves hollowed out. The shape is simple, but if you look closely you can see dark carvings, which makes it delicate.
That was a very special clockwork.
The moment Cheng An realized what was happening, he opened his eyes wide and looked up at Jing Yuan.
He nodded to confirm her guess: "You guessed right. I've also seen the video of you being brave and righteous. The red music box you were holding when you did it was a set with this spring."
"What does this mean?" She took out the music box and took a closer look. Sure enough, she found a small hole on the side, which must be the place to wind the spring.
"This proves that we didn't recognize the wrong person. Because this spring was given to me by you before you left." Jing Yuan solemnly handed the spring to Cheng An.
"You only said at the time that this was the key to your time and space, and you didn't give any other explanation."
"Then you disappeared without a word for hundreds of years."
"Until today."
Cheng An didn't know what expression or words he should use to respond.
In fact, she had no sense of reality for such fantasy things. She even found it difficult to understand how the Riddler, who only spoke half of his words, could do something like this.
"Did I say something so unpleasant before?" I was holding back a lot of emotional thoughts like "What are you talking about?" and finally picked out this less offensive sentence to say.
Jing Yuan was not surprised by this reaction. After all, Cheng An was very casual when talking to others and himself. He was straightforward and never doubted his friends. It was precisely because of these reasons that they were able to play together in the past.
He sighed softly. He had understood a long time ago that everything related to Cheng An was always tortuous. Now it seems that this strange characteristic still applies even in making friends.
Whether it is the cause of amnesia or the details of the so-called "time and space", there is no time to rush.
"For the sake of our old friendship, I can arrange accommodation for you in Luofu. You and your fellow pure-beautiful knights can just treat it as a sightseeing tour in Luofu until the spaceship is repaired."
"Don't rush to remember things. Remembering things that happened hundreds of years ago may only increase the pain."
"If you feel that your life is good now, there is no need to cling to the past."
Cheng An opened his mouth but said nothing. But doesn't that mean I have really forgotten you?
Forget it, there is no rush. She has not even solved her own survival problem, let alone such a metaphysical problem. Maybe when the right opportunity comes, she will be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
"Thank you, Jingyuan." Whether it's repairing the ship, accommodation, or other aspects.
Jing Yuan said, "Well, I'll accept it as a thank you. There are two cups of Happy Fairy Tea ordered by Bai Heng outside the door. You can take them back. It's a popular drink of Xianzhou. I'm sure you and Mr. Yinzhi will like it."
Cheng An didn't care who ordered it. No one can refuse a cup of soothing milk tea after experiencing ups and downs. She couldn't refuse it anyway.
She happily picked up the milk tea and followed Brother Yunqi who was leading the way to the arranged accommodation.
