A strong sense of fate arises, along with a sense of crisis.
Chiyorei made some calculations and found that if the story went according to the original plot, it seemed that he would not survive for a few days.
This conclusion was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky. It was hard for Chiyo Rei not to feel devastated. In an instant, he understood the characters in the novel who traveled through time in the book. After finding himself in a certain death situation, he desperately wanted to change the plot.
I can no longer survive, is it necessary to maintain the original plot? Anyway, there are no tasks that must be completed.
In a daze, an idea emerged from his heart. He wanted to live, and he didn't want to care about the original plot. Anyway, the timeline seemed to have become chaotic because of him, so there was nothing to worry about going forward.
But thinking that way, Chiyo Rei has not yet decided how to do it.
Just when Chiyo Rei was about to think about what to do next, the door in front of him was suddenly opened from the outside, and two shocked eyes were cast at him.
Chiyo Rei was startled behind the door. He subconsciously looked over and found that Qinqi Zhe and the old woman were staring at him.
was discovered.
A line of big words flashed in Chiyorei's mind, and then he subconsciously wanted to explain that he didn't mean to eavesdrop.
But he didn't know that his panicked look made the two people outside the door feel even more distressed.
"I just, just want to know what you are talking about." Chiyo Rei whispered. He felt a little guilty. Although he said that he did not eavesdrop on purpose, his words always sounded quibbling.
Fortunately, no one paid attention to this trivial matter. The old woman outside the door frowned when she heard this. She wanted to ask Chiyo Rei if she heard everything, but she couldn't bear to ask.
The admirer fell into silence, and the request for companionship appeared in his ears again. He realized that maybe the child had already noticed this, which made his mood complicated.
Before learning about this child's experience and life experience, Qingqi Zhe only wanted to send him home, but now he felt that he could not leave him alone.
Doing that is undoubtedly a kind of secret abandonment. As early as the beginning of his birth, Qinqi had experienced the feeling of being abandoned, and he knew that it was not a pleasant feeling.
Thinking of this, Qingqi took the initiative to say to Chiyo Rei after a brief hesitation, "I'll take you back."
Chiyo Rei immediately nodded in agreement. In his opinion, this was Qingqi who gave him a step up.
The old woman wanted to stay with them for dinner, but Chiyo Rei and Qing Qi Zhe declined at the same time.
However, the former thought it would be embarrassing to be caught eavesdropping, while the latter wanted to see where they would live in the future.
Human beings look strong, but are actually very fragile, especially children. So when Qingqi decided to stay with Chiyo Rei, what he was most concerned about was the other person's living situation.
"Then I'll get you some food." Seeing that she couldn't keep anyone, the old woman didn't force it.
This time Chiyo Rei did not refuse.
When Qingqi saw that Chiyorei agreed to accept the help, he didn't say much. However, he secretly remembered the kindness and planned to go to the mountains to pick some wild fruits and other ingredients to deliver to the old woman after he settled down in a few days. .
Ordinary humans would not dare to go to the mountains easily for fear of monsters, but as a doll made by God, he did not have that worry.
At this time, Qingqi vaguely guessed the reason why Chiyo Rei ran into the mountains.
A strange cramping pain came from his chest, and the curious man suddenly felt sad.
But he didn't show his sadness. After receiving the rice and a few vegetables given by the old woman, Qingqi and Chiyo Rei headed to the seaside hut far away from the village.
Chiyo Rei observed the road as he walked. He had only traveled here for a few days and was not very familiar with the surrounding environment.
On the contrary, Qingqi kept pointing out the direction for him.
Carrying the food, the two of them took a long detour before arriving at the lonely hut built on the beach.
Chiyorei wiped the sweat from his head and couldn't help but sigh at the hut, "We're finally here."
"It's a bit remote." The Qingqi agreed.
He was not surprised that Chiyo Rei didn't know the road. He had already learned from the old woman that this family mainly engaged in Tasha trekking activities and rarely appeared in the village. In addition, Chiyo Rei was still a child, so he couldn't remember the road. It's totally normal.
It's a pity that Chiyo Rei doesn't know what Qingqi is thinking. He thinks that he doesn't know the road, which is strange for the locals.
In order to cover up this strange feeling, Chiyorei pushed open the wooden door and urged Qinqi, "We are almost in."
The Qingqi nodded and entered the house with Chiyo Rei without much thought.
The space inside the house is very small, with only one bedroom apart from the kitchen and living room.
Although the residence is very simple, it is kept very clean.
After looking around, the admirer couldn't help but ask Chiyo Rei, who was putting the vegetables in the kitchen, "Did you clean up here?" He thought the room would be messy, but he didn't expect it to be so neat.
"Yes, clean it up a little and you will feel better." Chiyo Rei responded casually.
He really had nothing to do in the first few days after traveling through time, so he carefully tidied up the inside and outside of the room and looked for any items that could prove his identity.
Unfortunately, Chiyo Rei found nothing except a few books and an accounting notebook.
However, through the account books, he found that the family was living in poverty.
This is why Chiyo Rei speculated that it was most likely due to lack of money that the child's parents chose to live in a deserted land by the sea instead of living in Tatasha where they worked.
As the center of Inazuma's mainstay industry, the forging industry, housing prices in Tatasha are quite expensive... of course, they are only expensive now.
Chiyo Rei thought about the plot in the future game. After a few hundred years, no one would live in that place.
Thinking of this, he realized that it was better not to stay near Tatao Sha. According to the development of the original plot, the fools would probably be watching Qingqi around Tatao Sha, looking for opportunities to bring him into the group.
With the way the fools acted, Chiyo Rei felt that they might kill him to stimulate Qin Qi.
Chiyo Rei couldn't help but complain, it turns out that good villains are good villains who are never seen before, and they only feel scared when they do meet them.
After secretly scolding everyone for being stupid, Chiyo Rei realized something belatedly. The curious person stopped talking after asking him.
This prompted him to immediately look out of the kitchen, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he found that the Qinqi was still there.
But soon Chiyo Rei noticed that Qingqi seemed to be sad.
Although he only saw the side face, he could feel the emotion called pain from many people.
Chiyorei thought carefully and then walked out of the kitchen.
"The Stranger." He called out that name for the first time.
The Qingqi who was called by his name recovered his thoughts and looked down gently.
Chiyo Rei wanted to ask him what he was sad about, but the words turned into a request, "Can you put the rice on the shelf? I can't reach it." As he said that, he pointed to Qinqi Zhe who was holding him in his arms. rice bag.
"Of course." Qingqi agreed and then remembered something. He had been standing there for too long.
Looking at Chiyo Rei at this time, the admirer suddenly understood that this request was actually a sign of concern.
It turns out that not only does he care about this child, but the other party also cares about him.
The admirer lowered his eyes. He had the urge to tell the other person about the memory that flashed after he got that answer. In it was his past self. Facing the empty beauty, he gradually lost his ability to perceive, until he really became like Like a doll.
He didn't want that kid to ever feel anything like that.
He wanted to say that he showed up too late and it would have been better if he could have been by his side earlier.
But these words were not spoken out in the end. He sighed softly, went to the kitchen and put the rice on the wooden rack as Chiyorei said.
Rather than remembering, Qinqi felt that he could look forward.
Maybe after some time they could go together to the place where he was placed, and if the child was willing to listen, he would tell his past.
In the final analysis, you still have to cherish the present, just like what those who have been around him said to him, the past cannot be changed, the future is too far away, and only the present is real.
Qinqi felt a rare sense of relief. He began to think about what humans usually do at this time, and then realized that it seemed like it was time to have dinner.
So he asked Chiyo Rei, who was staying in the living room, looking like he was in a daze, but actually observing the kitchen secretly, "Are you hungry?"
"I'm hungry." Chiyo Rei replied decisively.
He ate a lot at his old mother-in-law's house, but he couldn't bear to go all the way.
The curious man smiled and opened the rice bag, "Then I'll cook." Judging from the way the child was eating at lunch, he definitely didn't know how to cook.
Chiyo Rei, who was waiting for this sentence, was very happy. He nodded like garlic, "Okay, okay." As he spoke, his mind became hot and he added without thinking, "I'm here to help."
"No, you go and have a rest." Qingqi declined Chiyo Rei's kindness.
Scratching his head, Chiyo Rei also felt that entering the kitchen was a disservice. Not to mention that his cooking skills were only at the level of boiling water and roasting melons on the fire. He was not proficient in just basic fire making.
But just waiting to eat is really rude.
Chiyorei struggled for a few seconds, and finally decided to tidy up the sleeping compartment.
"Then I won't help. You cook first, and I'll clean up the bedroom." Chiyo Rei said to Qingqi.
"Well, I'll call you when it's ready." Qingqi Zhe responded with a smile.
Nodding, Chiyorei turned around and walked towards the bedroom. This room was not big, so he arrived in just two steps.
The bedroom was very small, with just a crude wooden bed and a small table.
The first thing Chiyo Rei saw was the small table placed under the window. There was a notebook sewn with thread on it. It was the diary he used to record what happened every day after traveling to Teyvat.
After thinking for a while, Chiyo Rei came to the table. He opened the book and looked at it one by one, from the moment he woke up and became a child to the trivial complaints he made when he was running for survival every day.
At first he recorded this just to prevent him from forgetting about traveling to Teyvat, but now he has different ideas.
Chiyorei calmed down and picked up a pen made of charcoal to write a new date. On this date, there was no complaint or reminder to himself, but his determination.
【Day 5】
[What is the original plot? My fate is up to me. 】
This short sentence took all Chiyo Rei's strength, and the tip of the charcoal pen almost broke.
At this time, his only wish is to live, not only for himself, but also for the Qingqi who accompanies him.
Chiyo Rei's desire was so strong that his whole body was numb, as if he had been electrocuted.
However, it didn't take him too long to figure out that the tingling feeling was not a psychological effect.
A god's eye appeared out of thin air and hit Chiyo Rei on the head.
The unprepared Chiyo Rei immediately let out a cry of pain, and physiological tears burst out of the corners of his eyes under the pain.
The God's Eye fell on the table after smashing Chiyo Rei, emitting purple light under the orange sunset that shone through the window paper.
It was an Eye of Thunder God.
Coincidentally, there is a rule in the game that all holders of the Eye of the God of Wind will lose friends, especially friends of the Thunder type, and Qingqi just enters the card pool with the Eye of the God of Wind.
Recalling the unwritten rules, Chiyo Rei stared closely at the Eye of the God of Thunder, feeling for the first time the malice from the world.
