Chapter 87 The Caged Bird
Jiang Qian stood in front of the window and meditated for a long time.
Between an extremely small possibility and a high probability event, I finally chose the latter.
Although his sister has many unique characteristics, objectively speaking, she is still a good citizen with good values and insists on paying taxes legally.
Such a sister, even if she can't be loved by everyone, won't make Peacock Spider shy away, right?
"It seems that it is not enough to watch too many movies. We must fundamentally cut off the harm of utopianism..."
After figuring this out, Jiang Qian no longer struggled.
As soon as I lay down on the bed, I fell asleep.
……
The waves rolled up and crashed hard.
The harsh sound of waves finally tore apart the tranquility of the night.
On the beach that has been beaten by the waves, steam is rising vaguely...
Ayiguli was wrapped in the scorching air waves, and her makeup and painted skin were peeling off layer by layer. She looked at the visitor without blinking, and her lips trembled slightly: "Feather tribe...Feng slave?"
……
"No, that's not right!"
She was stunned in place, with no time to take into account her true appearance, which had been completely exposed, and her clothes, which were about to be destroyed. She couldn't believe the facts she saw.
The person standing in the distance has long and thick hair and a golden robe. Her face is hidden behind the exquisitely carved Yu Clan mask.
But the open five-state natural field is enough to turn anything close to her into ashes.
As the heat wave swept across, Ayiguli was sure that she had recognized who it was!
"Below one person in the Yu clan, and above a thousand..."
The heat wave in the air forced her to crawl on her knees, struggling to lift her cheeks.
Sweat had condensed on her original, beautiful and three-dimensional facial features, but she still tried hard to put on a shy smile on her face and asked: "I didn't expect that I can work so respectfully. I dare to ask this junior what crime I have." ?”
The Yu tribe is located in the west together with the Shenshan Mountain. As a neutral faction that is both good and evil, there is no inevitable hostility or conflict between Shenshan and the Yu Clan.
No matter how arrogant and unruly Ayiguli is, facing such a huge disparity in strength and pressure, she will instinctively show weakness and be the first to confirm the opponent's intentions.
The man in golden robe touched the mask with his hand and slowly opened it.
A light movement made Ayiguli's pupils condense and tremble!
"It's you! But..."
She looked around, with a look of sadness and confusion in her purple eyes. She hesitated briefly, and then burst into sudden laughter...
The laughter was drowned by the roaring waves, and it was hard to tell whether it was sad or fanatical.
After a long while, Ayiguli's laughter finally stopped and she struggled: "I didn't want to harm him! After all, he is different from those bad-behaving dudes. He was the one chosen by the mountain. I just wanted to take him home." …”
"Go home?"
The person in the golden robe seemed to have heard some interesting joke. She put the mask back on slowly and patiently corrected her: "He chooses for himself."
In fact, if she wants to correct anything, she does not need to use a roundabout tool like language, because her strength can support her to transcend the action of "reasoning" and complete most of the "corrections".
But tonight, for the first time, she used an inefficient tool like language.
Sure enough, it had the opposite effect.
I saw Ayiguli shaking her head desperately: "No, he has no choice!"
It is clear that his life has been blown away in the wind, but he still clings to an almost pathological obsession: "The sacred mountain has chosen him, he has passed the test, and the reincarnation of misfortune will soon wake up! He has no choice, We can only welcome transformation..."
"He has a choice."
The golden robe rustled in the rolling heat.
But the woman's voice still echoed clearly and completely in the air: "As long as I am still there, he will be."
Every word carries an undeniable intensity.
The heat wave made it difficult for Ayiguli to raise her head, but she still raised her face and shouted maliciously and mockingly at the condescending person: "But you are just a caged bird!"
This sentence obviously had some unknown effect, causing the surrounding air pressure to suddenly freeze.
This also caused this conversation that should not have happened to completely break down!
But Ayiguli was still very proud of this: "Hahaha, even your fate is not in his hands, so why do you say he has a choice? How much time do you have left, and how much can you give to him? You..."
The urgent voice suddenly got stuck in my throat!
Ayiguli's lips and teeth were slightly open, and all the muscles and bones in her body were tightened.
"At least it's more abundant than you." The man in golden robe sighed.
The flames entangled from the soles of Aiguli's feet and climbed up along her exquisite limbs, causing her original proud face to gradually be replaced by surprise and fear.
The spider hands surged out from behind uncontrollably, and were also entangled and sculpted by flames, leaving red-gold marks on every corner of her body.
The wind roared on the sea, and half of the sky was scorched by fire. When the seaside returned to calm, it was almost sunrise.
The man in golden robe sat down along the charred shore, letting the warm sea water wash over his ankles, and waited quietly.
During this period, some distant past came to mind.
……
In front of the gate of the Jinping branch of the Film Academy with people coming and going.
"Yu Xuan, are you interested?"
Young Jiang Qian looked at his sister sitting on the back seat of his bicycle with a proud look on his face, and his disgust was clear in his eyes: "How old are you, and you still need me to protect you?"
Ever since he was forced to accept the honor of acting bravely for justice, escorting his sister had become a part of Jiang Qian's daily life.
"It's at this age that you need protection." As he said this, Yu Xuan hugged his brother's waist tightly.
Then she heard a cold snort.
"Did you see those handsome guys at the door?" Jiang Qian pedaled off without looking away.
"My classmate, what's wrong?"
"Haha, it's your love debt! If I give you a few more days, I'm afraid the person in danger will be your brother and me."
Yu Xuan, who was about to be abandoned by his younger brother, lamented pitifully: "Well, from now on I can only find Jiang Yang to send me off... But Jiang Yang has such a bad temper, what if he quarrels with others? It's better to quarrel. , what if a fight breaks out?”
Jiang Qian suddenly hesitated: "Yes, Jiang Yang is indeed too unreliable. This guy will only bring shame to the Jiang family."
"And he looks so fierce, he will scare the female classmates in school! When the time comes, my sister won't be able to make friends, so she will have to play with you."
"It makes sense. He is totally incompetent, so I still have to do it."
"Yeah, that's right~" He continued to hug his brother tightly, enjoying the joy of success.
The bicycle brought gusts of breeze, and Jiang Qian's riding skills have been very stable with the help of his sister.
"You have to learn to protect yourself, sister."
Jiang Qian's voice came from the front, which actually gave Yu Xuan the illusion of listening to "his old father chanting sutras."
"What if one day I am no longer here?"
He was joking and pedaling.
It seems that she really regards her sister as a weak woman who has no strength to control the chicken.
……
Time passes, and the window of memory switches to after Yu Xuan graduated.
Backstage at the Academy Awards ceremony, Yu Xuan met the gorgeous lady for the first time, claiming to have the same blood as her.
That night was the pinnacle of her acting career, and it was also destined to put an end to her ordinary life.
The lady has a noble and elegant temperament. Although her appearance has aged, her grace and charm still retain her former splendor.
She placed a card with criss-cross patterns of blood and flames next to her golden statue trophy: "Make your choice, Miss Jin."
"You can choose to be yourself and live your life like an ordinary person. Or you can choose to be me and be a powerful caged bird."
At that time, Yu Xuan had just debuted and had never seen such a battle.
Overnight, learning that she was from a famous family and could have an identity beyond the world she knew, at the cost of losing part of her "freedom", was such a huge temptation that it was really hard to say no.
Even the lady was so convinced.
"Thanks, but I'm fine just the way I am."
When the lady was about to turn around, Yu Xuan smiled and rejected the identity card and the key to the door to the new world.
……
In the early morning, Jiang Qian woke up from his dream.
When he walked to the window, he happened to see the rising sun, and the fiery red light washed away his sleepiness.
It's time to get down to business... He turned around and entered the bathroom to wash up and change clothes.
Under the guidance of the maid, he walked towards Ji Ming's study.
