Chapter 8 Fictional Life

Countless crystal snowflakes were falling outside the window. They rolled together and turned into a turbid white storm. In the blink of an eye, a layer of snow-white was spread on the streets, bringing a chilling chill.

Due to the existence of the Furnace Pillar, Old Dunling has been wrapped in thick water vapor all year round, making it extremely cold in winter.

"This may be the most difficult winter in Old Dunling for so many years. I hope all listeners will take measures to keep warm..."

The announcer's worried voice sounded on the radio.

The aftermath of the heavy rain is still affecting the city, and there is still a lot of water in many underground facilities, not to mention the ruins on the ground, the demonic legacy that needs to be dealt with, and many more headaches.

The influence of antimemes continues, and the horrific scene of a rainstorm has been implanted in everyone's mind. Nowadays, many people are grateful for their survival. Facing the coming winter, there are no more expressions on their faces.

, only monotonous numbness remains.

Some people are obscured by darkness, while others find a little brilliance in the darkness.

"After winter, it's the so-called birthday of God."

Sa Liangxi was lying comfortably in the corner, covered with a warm blanket. The house seemed a bit shabby, with nothing except some necessary furniture. The fireworks in the fireplace burned quietly, spreading the warmth.

"Well, God's Birthday is said to be the most grand festival of the year. Everyone will return home and spend the silent night with their families."

Shao Liangye's voice sounded on the other side. He sat on a chair with his eyes closed and meditated.

Under the circumstances of successive heavy losses, the purification agency really couldn't spare any extra energy to take care of these Jiuxia guests, so they could only temporarily place them here. Fortunately, they thought it was nothing, after all, they were here to kill the enemy.

, instead of taking a vacation.

"Sounds pretty good, family reunion..."

Sa Liangxi muttered, trying to remember her so-called "family", but all that emerged in her memory were blurry figures one after another, and a golden lake.

She knew she couldn't understand it, so she simply stopped thinking about it.

"How long do you think we are going to stay here?"

Sa Liangxi asked again. She is a person who can't take any time off. She is full of energy all the time. It is simply torture for her to have such a restless guy stay here.

"Who knows? Just take it as a break. There are not many opportunities like this."

Shao Liangye had a gloomy face. He had been gloomy for a long time. Although Sa Liangxi was used to this guy's bad expression, sometimes Shao Liangye would still smile. But since the rainstorm, he has been like this.

What's the secret?

What's the secret?

Sa Liangxi could guess it, but paradoxically, she didn't know what it was.

As Anonymous, when he woke up from the hospital and saw Rhodes who had lost his memory and his own memory was blurred, Sagarei realized everything.

Something must have happened at the end of the rainy day. With his permission, Shao Liangye hid the incident forever.

Sa Liangxi was very curious and wanted to ask more questions, but every time she opened her mouth, she couldn't help but shrink back. She thought it must be a bad memory, and she was both curious and scared at the same time.

"Where's Rhodes? I remember he was here just now."

Sa Liangxi looked at the corner of the room. Rhodes had forgotten much more than himself. This unlucky mortal had been completely blank for nearly a month, and the familiarity between him and Sa Liangxi had also disappeared.

This kind of thing is quite sad, but Sa Liangxi is probably used to all this, she quickly accepted it, and then started to get acquainted with him for the second time.

It's just that this time, Sa Liangxi has experience, and she is very enthusiastic. After all, she and Rhodes are already considered acquaintances, but in Rhodes' view, the two of them are just strangers. Such enthusiasm makes Rhodes very excited.

Troubled and uneasy, this guy has been hiding from Sa Liangxi recently.

"I don't know, he probably went to work," Shao Liangye said, "Now he is managing our daily life."

"Ah ha ha."

Sa Liangxi smiled and asked Rhodes to serve only as a translator. In this case, it was obviously a waste of manpower, so recently Rhodes took charge of the lives of these guests and was manipulated by Sa Liangxi like a nanny.

With.

This is what makes Rhodes feel most uncomfortable. He always feels that this Jiuxia person is bullying him, but she doesn't seem to have the awareness of bullying, which makes Rhodes very confused.

After laughing for a while, Sa Liangxi felt bored again. She leaned against the wall and tilted her head.

"How many times have our memories been cut?"

The Saliang River calmed down and he asked.

"Looking back carefully, I actually don't have any sad memories. It's as if my life has been so smooth and happy, without any damage."

Shao Liangye did not speak and remained silent.

He and Sa Liangxi have always maintained a perfect tacit understanding, or in other words, it is the same between everyone anonymously. They all know what they have lost, but they all pretend that it has not happened and maintain the false

peaceful.

"But things that are too perfect always seem a little false, don't they?"

Sa Liangxi looked out the window, snowflakes fell down, clinging to the glass, and there were waves of cold air exuding from it.

Shao Liangye remained silent. He was not good at words, let alone arguing with Shao Liangxi.

"Okay, okay, I know you won't say anything. After all, this is part of the 'Creed', and the things that are erased are things I shouldn't remember, but I still have a question to ask you.

.”

Speaking of this, Sa Liangxi seemed a little hesitant. This matter had been bothering her for so long that she even started to have nightmares recently.

She stood on the golden lake, and soon the lake beneath her feet began to stir, and then the raging fire swallowed her up.

"That golden lake in my memory, is it real?"

This is a very bad feeling. After you realize the first flaw, you will begin to doubt and doubt everything in your life. You will be shocked to realize that there are countless flaws, made up of falsehoods one after another.

, crumbling.

"I have no idea."

At this time, Shao Liangye finally spoke. He had thought about this day coming, but Zuo Zhen was supposed to explain all this to her, but now it was him who was caught off guard.

He sighed and looked very tired. Thinking about it, such a thing is really troublesome.

"Then you should also remember that golden lake."

Sa Liangxi asked again. Normally, she could pretend to be stupid and not think about these things, but after what she had experienced in the Western world, Saliangxi had a vague premonition that everything was about to end. If she didn't do something now,

Knowing that she may never have the chance to know again.

"Well, the golden lake, where we grew up and trained."

Shao Liangye's words were devoid of any emotion.

"Is this true? Or is it another false one...even the 'Sa Liang River' is false?"

Suspicions came one after another, making Sa Liangxi feel uneasy like never before.

"If you know the creed, believe it blindly and stubbornly. Only in this way can you avoid the self-collapse of doubt." Shao Liangye said.

Situations full of doubts like the one in Sarakei have not never happened among Anonymous, so they need to blindly believe in the creed, try not to think more, and stubbornly carry out the orders in front of them.

"but……"

Shao Liangye stopped talking. He felt that this was still too cruel. He felt that he should not be so indifferent. Both he and Shao Liangxi were living people.

"You can wait until this is over, Sairakoi."

Shao Liangye said, and then a little light appeared in his eyes. This was not only convincing Sa Liangxi, but also convincing himself.

"As long as this is over, we can return to Jiuxia together. Regardless of your memory...and the golden lake, whether it is true or false, we will get the answer there."

After leaving Jiuxia this time, Shao Liangye felt that what he had experienced in just a few months was almost more frightening and confusing than anything he had experienced in the first half of his life.

Coupled with Zuo Zhen's departure, he seemed fragile now and didn't know what to do.

"Zuo Tang..."

Shao Liangye thought of the current leader of the Anonymous. He only knew that Zuo Tang was not dead, but after the heavy rain, Shao Liangye had not seen him again, and he had no idea what this guy was doing.

He may be sad, or he may have no emotion at all. Shao Liangye doesn't have much communication with Zuo Tang, and he only knows roughly about his relationship with Zuo Zhen.

Shao Liangye felt that he should have a good talk with him, not only about what to do next, but also about Zuozhen, the Siliang River, and the golden lake...

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and a sneaky person poked his head in.

Like a thief, Rhodes looked around cautiously, then opened the door with a pile of chopped wood in his hand.

"I brought some wood back."

Rhodes looked at Sa Liangxi and then at Shao Liangye. He had completely forgotten all his experiences with the two of them and looked slightly nervous.

"Yo! Rhodes!"

Sa Liangxi suddenly stood up, wrapped in a blanket and walked directly towards Rhodes.

"Ahhh!"

Rhodes let out bursts of exclamations, and walked around Shao Liangye in the middle like a hide-and-seek. He threw the wood in his hand beside the fireplace, and then quickly retreated, but he was obviously a step slower and was caught by Shao Liangye.

Creek caught.

"Oh, why are you shy?"

Sa Liangxi deliberately played with Rhodes and hugged him vigorously, looking like good brothers who were close to each other.

But for Rhodes, this is a slightly embarrassing torture. He always feels that he has seen Sa Liangxi somewhere, but he can't remember it. Logically speaking, he should be very concerned about these visitors from Jiuxia.

It's okay to be excited, but in front of the even more excited Sa Liangxi, Rhodes became a little timid.

I was supposed to observe the Jiuxia people by myself, but now everything seems to be reversed.

"Please... wait a moment!"

Rhodes' voice was whimpering.

I don't know if I should say that Saragei is big-hearted, or that she is very good at this kind of performance. The pressure and confusion just now are no longer as if she has always been this heartless.

In the past, Shao Liangye might have breathed a sigh of relief, but this time, he didn't feel any less pressure. For the first time, he himself couldn't see clearly about Sa Liangxi, and he didn't know whether she was really stupid or just pretending.

"Wait a moment!"

Rhodes yelled, which seemed to shake Sa Liangxi and let him climb out of the hell of torture. He leaned to the side and spoke with a slight horror.

"Someone just came over to deliver a letter."

"letter?"

Sa Liangxi glanced at Shao Liangye and said, "Is it for you?"

As a stranger from afar, she didn't think anyone would send a letter to her in this strange Western world.

"Well, it seems to be from the Stuart family."

Rhodes said as he took out the letter from his arms. The envelope was printed with the Stuart family's sword and shield logo.

"Stuart?"

Shao Liangye stood up. They didn't have much interaction with this family, but he remembered that the young founder of the country seemed to come from this family.

"Give."

Rhodes handed over the letter and then hid far away.

After these few days of work, he found that as a translator, he didn't have much use at all. Instead, he was like a nanny. He couldn't understand why the purification agency sent him to take care of these two strangers. What's more,

I don't understand why these two strangers look so familiar to me.

He judged that Sa Liangxi was overly familiar with himself, but Shao Liangye was different. This guy acted very indifferent, but in some details, Rhodes could realize that this guy also seemed to be familiar with him, but Luo

De has never dealt with them at all.

"What's this?"

Sao Liangxi also came over and put his support on Shao Liangye's shoulders.

"Invitation card."

Shao Liangye briefly looked through it and came to this conclusion.

"Invite us? Stuart's house?"

Sa Liangxi's eyes sparkled. She had had enough of the boredom these days. This kind of thing was simply an unexpected surprise to her.

"Well, that should be it."

"when?"

"It didn't say anything on it, but it said someone would be sent to pick her up."

Dinner?

Rhodes stood aside, thinking to himself that the banquet held by the Stuart family seemed not to be open to the public, and was completely invitation-only... This sounded like it was full of wealth and power, and only the upper class of the old Dunling could

Only people are eligible to participate.

All kinds of things flashed through his mind for a while, but they all disappeared in the end. Rhodes felt that he was still a pragmatic person. He rarely cared about such distant things. In his opinion, he could do academic research well and then do research in the field.

It would be nice to buy a house in Jiudunling and live out your life peacefully.

As he thought this, the shouting gradually became clearer, and Rhodes heard Shao Liangye calling him.

"Rod, Rod!"

Shao Liangye shouted several times before calling Rhodes back to consciousness.

"What's wrong?"

"You will be here all the time these days, right? Then we will go together."

Shao Liangye said.

Listening to his words, Rhodes put on the iconic smile of a service industry worker.

"OK."

After speaking, his thoughts froze for a few seconds.

Wait a minute!

"Together?"

Rhodes showed a surprised expression, while Shao Liangye nodded, took out the invitation, and pointed to Rhodes' name on it.

"Yes, what's wrong?"
