Chapter 27 The Poor World
In the clear sky, birds sing and flowers scented. Tonghua sat beside the pool, staring blankly at the water surface. Jiao Qing sat quietly and said nothing, no one was talking, enjoying the tranquility that had finally come.
After a long time, Lang Keke's sarcastic words came from behind: "Yeah, where is the world of two people."
Jiao Qing jumped away like a frightened rabbit, and hid aside with red face, which was so cute.
Tong Hua didn't even look back and said lightly: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Lang Keke saw Tong Hua's appearance, smiled coldly, punched Tong Hua hard from behind, knocked Tong Hua to the ground, and kicked him several times, while hitting him, "Hmph! I told you to pretend to be aloof, to call you a human face and a beast heart, to lure you into a minor girl, to ask you to sneak attack me, and to throw my helicopter down from the 17th floor. You bastard, I can't beat you this time!"
Tong Hua was originally watching the scenery and looking at the poem and the distance, but he didn't expect that Lang Keke would suddenly take action. He was caught off guard and was beaten by Lang Keke so hard that he had no power to fight back.
When Jiao Qing saw Tong Hua being knocked to the ground, he immediately said anxiously: "Sister Keke, what are you doing! Stop!"
Lang Keke was pulled away by Jiao Qing, and finally kicked Tong Hua hard on the butt before walking aside and said with satisfaction: "Oh yeah~ Relieve hatred!"
"Tong Hua, are you okay? Does it hurt?" Jiao Qing helped Tong Hua up with a little crying voice.
Tong Hua shook her head and said, "...It's okay, it's just, I'm a little dizzy."
When Tong Hua reacted, he asked Lang Keke, who was proud of him, and said, "Hey! Why are you hitting me?"
Lang Keke laughed and said, "I'll hit you. What can you do? You bite me, you bite me."
As he said that, Lang Keke also delivered his slender and white hand to Tong Hua and provoked him.
"Hahahaha!!"
Just when Lang Keke was proud, Tong Hua looked at Lang Keke's tender and white hands, opened her mouth and bit it.
"Ah! Let go, let go of my hands, are you a dog?"
Lang Keke was shocked and waved his hand to slap Tong Hua twice. Tong Hua then let go of his mouth in Jiao Qing's shocked gaze.
Lang Keke looked at the row of tooth marks and saliva on his hand, and tears were almost flowing down. He hurriedly squatted by the pool to wash his hands. So Tong Hua gloriously added another abnormal title.
"Wait for me! Jiaoqing, come with me!" Lang Keke gritted his teeth in resentment, swept away his previous pride, pulled Jiaoqing up and ran back to the front yard.
Seeing Lang Keke leave, Tong Hua took out a bottle of water from the ring, unscrewed the lid and rinsed his mouth. "I don't know if the crazy woman was washing her hands..."
...
In the evening, Tong Hua was lying on the bed. For some reason, two or three people were in the same room, but he was alone in this secluded and comfortable room.
Tong Hua has made arrangements for the future. He first sent everyone to Junyang District, then went to the cave alone to find out, and then went to find Jiao Qing to protect her, fulfill her promises, and strive to survive in the end of the world.
This is Tong Hua's idea. He has no lofty ambitions, nor has he desire for power. Even though it has reached the end of the world, Tong Hua has always been confused since childhood. He has always been confused. He doesn't know what he wants, what he likes to eat, what he likes to eat, what he likes to eat, what he doesn't like, what he doesn't like, what he doesn't like, just like Tong Hua ran away from an orphanage...
"Dongdongdongdong-Tonghua, are you asleep?" Jiao Qing's soft voice sounded outside the door.
Tong Hua looked at the door. Under the light, a slender figure stood outside the door.
Tong Hua said: "No, come in, there are many mosquitoes outside."
Hearing Tong Hua's answer, Jiao Qing hesitated for a moment, blushed, but still pushed open the door.
Jiao Qing walked to Tong Hua with a red face and sat down, saying, "Tong Hua, what do you plan to do in the future..."
Tong Hua looked at Jiao Qing, who was blushing, and couldn't help but beating faster. He turned his head and said, "...Tomorrow... I will leave Kubo Temple, go to Junyang District, and then I will go to the cave and come back to protect you..."
Jiao Qing listened and asked shyly with a little surprise: "Protect me! Tong Hua, you..."
Tong Hua said, "Well, I promised, I will definitely protect you."
"Is it just for that promise... or him..." Jiao Qing leaned against Tong Hua when he heard this.
Feeling that Jiao Qing was approaching him, Tong Hua became nervous for the first time.
Jiao Qing leaned her head gently on Tong Hua's shoulder. At this moment, Jiao Qing felt very quiet, as if she could hear the other party's heartbeat slowly accelerating.
"Tong Hua... You are the only person I can rely on in this world... From now on, I will go wherever you go. We will be together all the time, okay..."
Tong Hua was stunned, "Jiao Qing, is Jiao Qing confessing to me... She confessed to me? What should I do..."
"Well..." Tong Hua was about to say something, but a loud shout broke the awkward and ambiguous atmosphere with the sound of the door breaking.
"Jiao Qing! I knew you were here, why did the girl love her so unlovingly! Come back with me!" Lang Keke rushed in, pulled Jiao Qing up, and forced Jiao Qing out of Tong Hua's room. Before leaving, he scolded Tong Hua and slapped Tong Hua.
"You guy who is worse than beasts, you don't stop in a solemn and solemn place like a temple. You want to abduct Jiao Qing, shameless! Scary! Vulgar! Pervert! Hum!"
The curses gradually faded away, leaving only Tong Hua, who was desperate, sitting on the bed, covering her face, staring blankly at the broken door panel...
After a long time, Tong Hua took out his notes and added a sentence to the page on June 13.
"Today is a sad day..."
Tong Hua closed the notes, looked at the broken door, sighed, and fell asleep on the bed...
Jiaoqing and Lang Keke lived in the same room. When they returned to the room, before Lang Keke could speak, Jiaoqing hugged Lang Keke and said with red eyes: "Sister Keke..."
When he saw Jiao Qing like this, Lang Keke immediately became angry and shouted: "Jiao Qing, is that pervert bullying you? Wait, I'll go and castrate him to relieve you! Hahaha!"
Before he finished speaking, Lang Keke pulled out the dagger with excitement and ran out the door.
Jiao Qing immediately hugged Lang Keke tightly and hurriedly said, "No, Sister Keke, Tong Hua is not a bad guy."
"Why are you still talking to him? You're obsessed with it?" Lang Keke interrupted, a little angry.
"No, no, Sister Keke, calm down and put the knife down first." Jiao Qing held Lang Keke hard, for fear that Lang Keke would run away.
Lang Keke finally put away his dagger and patted Jiao Qing on the shoulder.
Seeing that Lang Keke stopped, Jiao Qing let go of his arms and pulled Lang Keke to the edge of the bed.
"Sister Coco, I, I like Tong Hua..." Jiao Qing said with his head down.
"What!" Lang Keke was shocked. "Jiao Qing, you are crazy, what's the point of having he?"
Jiaoqing hugged one of Lang Keke's arms and said, "Sister Keke, I know you are biased against Tong Hua. You must have some misunderstandings, but I know very well that I like him!"
"Mom is gone, dad is gone, too. Tong Hua is the only person I can rely on in this world. He is not a bad person. Even if he will become bad in the future, I will not regret it. Sister Coco, don't bully Tong Hua. He is an orphan, very pitiful."
Lang Keke then calmed down, touched Jiaoqing's head and said, "Jiaoqing, you have only known each other for a few days, and you have been devoted to him."
Jiaoqing said, "He is different from others. I believe he will protect me well."
Lang Keke said: "Jiaoqing, people will change. What if he becomes bad in the future?"
Hearing this, Jiao Qing said sadly: "From now... the world has become like this, and there are dangers every day. The future life only exists in fantasy. If I die that day, I don't want to be alone all the time..."
Lang Keke was silent. After a long time, Lang Keke lay on the bed and looked at the roof. "Jiaoqing, please let go. I won't go to trouble you Tong Hua tonight."
Jiao Mei blushed and immediately let go of the hand that grabbed Lang Keke and turned around...
Lang Keke looked at the roof and his eyes gradually became confused.
Later... in the end of the world, what will happen later...
...
At night, the breeze blew across the Buddhist temple, blew a strand of white hair from the old Taoist priest, and then fell down.
"Shichen, after so many years, you have been in this Kubo Temple, and you are still leisurely. It can be seen that the world is now turning upside down."
Shi Chen opened his mouth and said, "I know it."
Hearing the answer, the old Taoist priest sighed, "Since you already know, do you still want to stay in this Kubo Temple?"
Shi Chen sat cross-legged on the cushion and recited the scriptures in his mouth, but he did not answer the old Taoist priest.
The old Taoist priest shook his head and turned away, "I hope you can find your own way as soon as possible..."
Shi Chen opened his eyes and murmured, "The Buddha also said that all sentient beings suffer, all sufferings are disasters, but the Buddha and his disciples are dull. Why are they the only disasters that they see..."
...
The next morning—
Tong Hua sat on the bed, holding notes in his hand. Since the end of the world, writing notes has become Tong Hua’s habit.
"June 14, 2020, the sixth day, I came to a place called Kubo Temple in a daze. It was so strange that it seemed like nothing happened here, there were no zombies, and no strange beasts. The mountains and forests outside the temple were like invisible devils, leaving no traces of eating people, and there were mutated plants everywhere. A seemingly simple tree can kill people, but once you get to the temple, it is extremely safe. Is there really a Buddha? Then why, so many people die..."
Having written this, Tong Hua took back the notes and touched his swollen cheeks.
"Hiss~ I'm so cruel to start. This Lang Keke is such a lunatic. He beats someone for no reason, it hurts so much..."
Last night, Tong Hua, whose faces were swollen on both sides, couldn't sleep no matter how hard he lay down. When his face accidentally touched the pillow, it hurt so much.
"I'll send them to Junyang District in a while. When I arrive at Junyang District, I will go to the cave. I really want to know what I am..."
Tong Hua thought to himself that the cave Long Yi mentioned had almost become Tong Hua's inner demon. Tong Hua wanted to enter there all the time. Although he didn't know what was there, Tong Hua seemed to be extremely curious about Long Yi, who had only seen one side and didn't even know his name, curious about why he was so strong and why he asked himself to go to that cave.
