The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 481 The Wind Rises

After everyone had dinner, Gao Yang took the initiative to clear away the dishes and help Zhuang Mei tidy up the kitchen.

Lin Yue and Gao Xinxin supported Gao Shou and continued to walk slowly in the yard, helping Gao Shou "recover" and eat.

The kitchen of the farmhouse is an old-fashioned kitchen with an earthen stove, a large pot on top, and a fire underneath, which mainly burns wood.

Zhuang Mei was washing pots on the stove with a brush, while Gao Yang was washing dishes at the side.

"Aunt Mei, it's hard to live alone." Gao Yang asked casually: "There are so many things to do every day."

"It was a little hard at first, but you get used to it." Zhuang Mei also answered casually.

"You got divorced, do you regret it?" Gao Yang asked again: "I always feel that people still have to have a family."

The work in Zhuang Mei's hands stopped for a moment, and then she continued to brush. Her back looked a little lonely: "Yangyang, not every couple is as loving as your parents. People like me are not suitable for marriage. Divorce is the solution. I am living It’s nice, you’re free and relaxed, you don’t have to be responsible to anyone, everyone has their own way of living.”

"That's right." Gao Yang smiled: "I asked a stupid question."

Zhuang Mei also smiled: "You are still young, and your ideas will inevitably be limited. You will know it after you have more experience."

After Gao Yang finished washing the dishes, he walked out of the kitchen and found that Qing Ling could not be found. He asked his father in the front yard: "Dad, where is Xiao Ling?"

"She said she was too full and wanted to take a walk. It should be nearby." Gao Shou said.

"Tsk, tsk." Gao Xinxin, who was supporting her father, had a look of disgust on her face: "I'm not married yet, but I'm so tired of it. I'm afraid I won't be able to see us anymore in my eyes from now on."

"Don't talk nonsense, your brother is not that kind of person." Mom smiled and pressed Gao Xinxin's forehead: "This is what happens when you first fall in love. You will know when you find a boyfriend in the future."

"I don't know how." Gao Xinxin was unconvinced.

Gao Yang walked out of the yard with a smile, and soon saw a slender girl's figure on the edge of the pond not far away.

The moonlight was bright and a full moon was reflected in the pond.

The night wind in the countryside blew gently, the water rippled, and the long green feathers flying by the pond were bathed in the faint moonlight. The profile of her face was soft and tranquil, and the tip of her nose was dotted with a lively highlight.

She raised her head slightly, closed her eyes, and enjoyed the night breeze.

"rustle--"

Gao Yang stepped on the grass and made a sound.

Qing Ling slowly opened her eyes, tilted her head and looked over, and saw Gao Yang, with stars shining in her eyes, and smiled slightly.

Gao Yang was stunned. Although Qing Ling had laughed often before, it was mostly sneers, ridicules, sneers, half-smiles, and disgusting smiles.

It seemed like it was the first time for me to smile so naturally and gently.

"Gao Yang." Qing Ling waved to Gao Yang.

Gao Yang walked to her side: "What?"

"Close your eyes, quick."

Gao Yang closed his eyes without asking why.

"Do you feel it?" Qing Ling asked softly.

"wind?"

"Well, the wind at this time is the most comfortable." Qing Ling's voice was pleasant.

Gao Yang quietly felt that the night wind in the autumn countryside was very cool, carrying the smell of deserted vegetation, a little lonely, and very gentle.

"Well, it's so comfortable." Gao Yang nodded, closed his eyes and continued to enjoy a moment of leisure.

"My sister and I like a saying very much." Qing Ling's voice came from her ears.

"Which one?"

"When the wind blows, the only way to survive is to survive."

Gao Yang's heart trembled slightly, and a very hard scar hidden deep in his heart seemed to be melted.At this second, Gao Yang felt peaceful, beautiful, and reluctant. It would be great if time stopped at this moment.

Suddenly, a hand gently held Gao Yang's hand, very firmly and not hesitant at all.

Gao Yang's body trembled and his heart became confused.

"This time, it's free." Qing Ling said softly.

Gao Yang didn't speak. He couldn't bear to let go of his hand, but he didn't have the courage to hold it tightly.

He found himself afraid.

It's really strange. It was such a beautiful moment, and he felt happy and joyful, even happy, a second ago, but now, he was afraid.

Ten seconds later, Qing Ling let go of Gao Yang.

The two opened their eyes almost at the same time and looked at each other.

Qing Ling avoided his gaze, as if nothing had happened. She tilted her head and smoothed her hair around her ears, "Are you here to see my sister?"

Gao Yang also pretended that nothing happened. He nodded: "Yes, I have something to do with her, and I'm a little anxious."

Qing Ling pursed her lips and closed her eyes: "Wait a moment."

Five seconds later, Qing Ling opened her eyes.

Under the moonlight, the girl's cold eyes stared straight at Gao Yang, making Gao Yang feel guilty: Strange, why am I feeling guilty? I didn't do anything bad.

"What do you want from me?" Qing Ling asked.

"Yes." Gao Yang's voice also deepened: "It's a very important thing."

"You said."

Gao Yang looked back at the farmhouse not far away, feeling a little worried.

Qing Ling immediately understood. She grabbed Gao Yang's arm and leaned against Gao Yang. Although her movements were not as natural as her sister's, from a distance, she still looked like a couple in love: "Let's go for a walk."

Gao Yang and Qing Ling crossed the fields and came to the country road, and finally stopped on a small stone bridge across the ditch. They were far away from Zhuang Mei's farmhouse and no longer had to worry about being heard.

Qing Ling let go of Gao Yang's hand: "Go ahead."

Gao Yang took a deep breath and said with a serious expression: "I'll tell you the truth, don't be surprised."

Qing Ling nodded.

"..." Gao Yang did not make a sound, but spoke a lip language.

Qing Ling understood immediately and her pupils dilated: "Are you sure?"

"If it was just suspicion before." A gust of night wind blew, and Gao Yang's voice trembled slightly: "Now I can say that it is 100% certain."

"Tell me the reason." It's not that Qing Ling doesn't believe Gao Yang, but she still feels that this matter must be confirmed carefully.

Gao Yang nodded and expressed his reasoning: "Whether it was the time with Cockroach No. 10, or the conversation between Hyena No. 7 and Blood Poker No. 8 in the Western Kingdom, or the collision between No. 9 Edmund and No. 12 in the secret room again. The last time and this time all revealed a message."

"The tail team recently performed a mission in Licheng. This mission is not for the three major organizations. In fact, in principle, we should try to avoid people from the three major organizations."

"However, because many people in the tail team have deep jealousy and hatred towards us, they always tend to lose control after encountering us by chance."

"For example, No. 10 Cockroach, No. 12 Keyou, and today No. 11 Xing Kong and No. 6 Mrs. Wu."

"Emond, Hyena and Xuebo should be considered the relatively sane members of the tail team."

"I understand this." Qing Ling nodded: "But what exactly do you want to say?"

"What I want to say is that it is not a coincidence that the tail team came to Licheng to perform tasks and bumped into us again and again."
