Free Wild 29
Winter is still cold after December.
As the description of the Amnesia debuff states, the symptoms will become more severe each year.
Ning Ren didn't know that the "more serious" mentioned in the introduction meant a geometric increase in severity.
On the night of December 30th, he took Yu An and set off spiritual fireworks on the cliff, which was considered the Yuan Festival that would only appear after the celebration ten thousand years ago.
They even had a big dinner that night to celebrate the arrival of the next year.
The morning of January 1st.
Ning Ren woke up from a deep sleep, and the word "Yuanjie" completely disappeared from his mind, along with all the warm memories associated with this word.
All the memories of the Chaos City were the first to be wiped out from his memory bit by bit, and then Lan Huadis -
The memories of the two lives are too complicated.
After the entire City of Chaos was completely withdrawn, Lan Huadis was like a piece of flesh and blood with its bones and tendons torn away.
In those fragments of memory, he could not discern the fundamental reasons behind each of his choices.
This young man, who was between adolescence and adolescence, got up as usual. The moment he opened his eyes, he felt empty in his heart, and he could not find the reason for this emptiness.
He sat by the bed for a while until the system said good morning to him as usual with full energy.
Ning Rencai said, "Good morning."
His expression was no different from usual. He finished washing up while daydreaming, walked to the desk, and habitually flipped through his memoirs.
He opened it and paused at the first page.
Then, Ning Ren softly and somewhat awkwardly pronounced three words: "Ah...Su Lin...?"
His memory was blank, his heartbeat was silent.
There was no memory that connected his emotions to the name.
[Mind's Eye] only paused for a moment before Ning Ren's fingers began to flip back—
Half unfamiliar.
The system's cheerful mood had been stunted by Ning Ren's unusual behavior. It was incredulous and hesitant. "Azi," it still preferred to call him, "don't you recognize this name?"
As Ning Ren had agreed with him before, it began to play the first season of "A Renzai's Growth Journey" in Ning Ren's sea of consciousness.
It kept saying, "Azi, this is you."
"This is Daddy!"
"This is your best friend!"
“…”
"...This is the last time you leave."
"Asulin's father fell asleep holding a doll made of your clothes."
It was so urgent that it was played at almost six times the speed, eager to make Ning Ren remember some of it.
However, the fast-paced plot and the playback progress bar that jumped from time to time made it impossible for Ning Ren to form a complete story logic chain in his mind.
In fact, because of the debuff, these things that tried to awaken his memory did not remain in his memory for long.
Just like a cleaning program that detects residual garbage, the inexplicable ripples gradually calmed down.
He reassured the system: "I remember some of it."
But the system almost cried in an instant.
It had spent the longest time with Ning Ren, and the subtle difference in Ning Ren's tone between appeasing and telling the truth was evident. It was no longer the same Tong Zi it once was, and it immediately realized that Ning Ren was lying to it.
Why lie?
Because its help was of no use, Ning Ren didn't want to make it sad.
It really hates this amnesia debuff.
Just as it understood Azai, Azai was also keenly aware of its emotions.
In its sea of consciousness, it watched the soul of the endangered Sword Clan grow up, which was in the second stage of growth.
Zizi is a member of the instrument family that is known to have difficulty in developing emotions, but he has a soul that is gradually becoming sensitive to emotions.
It has witnessed.
Those memories are important, but the emotions contained in them are even more important. Forgetting is like a cold knife, cutting away the bones and flesh of memories and emotions, until nothing is left even the skeleton.
Only the gentle soul background polished and soaked by love remains.
It hates these debuffs.
Once it has enough money to invest in the mall, the first thing it will do is to chew up these debuff programs one by one and eat them whole.
The system suppressed the electronic tears that were about to burst out and pretended nothing had happened.
Ning Ren saw that the system had calmed down, but he didn't read on. His ears twitched, he closed the memoirs and pushed open the door.
There was a small figure standing at the door. No one knew how long he had been there. In the heavy snow, a layer of snow fell on his soft blue hair.
Yu An was wearing thick clothes and hiding her face in the scarf knitted by her benefactor - the Lantern Festival gift Ning Ren gave her last night.
At this moment, he was holding a wooden bowl as big as Ning Ren's palm. The bowl was filled with beautiful pearls of various sizes, and under the sunlight, it glowed a sea blue that was even cleaner and clearer than before.
The blue clownfish raised its head with great effort, its eyelids red and swollen, its eyes gleaming with anticipation and shyness. "Yuan, here's my gift for you."
"My benefactor sent me a gift last night so suddenly that I didn't even know about it, so I wasn't prepared... My tears will turn into beautiful pearls. My benefactor likes beauty, and this is the most beautiful thing on my body."
“…”
This is a token of his thoughtfulness, so Ning Ren naturally wouldn't choose to spoil Yu An's fun at this time.
Ning Ren squatted down and took the bowl of clear thoughts.
"Thank you Yu An, I like it very much."
He picked up one with his fingertips, only to discover that these sea-blue teardrops were strung together with extremely fine silk threads, with white tassels hanging at the end. The tassels were sealed with a small piece of hollow bell-shaped golden animal bone.
He pulled it all out and it just happened to be an ornament that was buckled around his waist.
Yu An: "This is an accessory I saw in the clothing sketch that Mr. Wang drew. I think it looks great and suits him very well."
Ning Ren can't remember, but the system remembers.
In ancient times, people wanted to keep clothes simple. The common clothes of the tribes in the City of Chaos were the simplest. Ning Ren drew a lot of them and gave them to the elders, asking them to prepare corresponding clothes according to his size.
In recent times, the clothes sent have become more and more exquisite, but generally they are still mostly light colors.
Ning Ren touched the waist chain.
"So many tears, did you not sleep at all last night?"
Yu An: "They can be exchanged for food and leather! My benefactor raised me a fish, so I don't have to worry about food and clothing." When he was beaten, those people said that his tears were top-grade pearls, and they could be exchanged for a lot of things when he was not hungry.
"Use chili pepper to fumigate your eyes. Soon, small pearls will appear. There are so many that I spent the whole night fuming."
Ning Ren: “…”
He couldn't help but imagine in his mind that the little fish was sitting on the stool obediently and stupidly, holding the chili pepper in one hand and the bowl in the other, placing them under his chin and blinking hard to wipe away the tears.
"Then put it on me."
Yu An was even happier. He put it on him carefully, wrapped it around and fastened the tail end.
Ning Ren's clothes were simple in style and light in color. With the waist chain on, he added a touch of cold and noble temperament, and became gentle when he smiled.
Yu An praised from the bottom of his heart: "A Yuan, you are so handsome!"
Ning Ren pulled down his scarf and said, "I give this to you to keep you warm, not to cover yourself."
Yu An made two awkward grunts.
Ning Ren: "A fish that lacks confidence may not have the possibility of a second evolution."
Yu An's eyes suddenly widened.
"Is it okay?"
Ning Ren smiled without saying anything and stood up. "Let's go and see how your studies are going."
Yu An stood there blankly for a while, then as if remembering something, he turned around and shouted, "Benefactor! You can't go out! You're still sick!!!"
Mr. Ning, who had already walked five meters in the snow, stopped.
After being awake for so long, his body reacted belatedly. A breath of cold air choked his lungs, and Ning Ren began to bend over and cough violently.
Mr. Ning was coughing so hard that he was really confused.
When did he get sick?
…
On the morning of the new year, Yu An thought that A Yuan had forgotten that he was sick and was just dazed when he woke up.
However, he gradually discovered that this was not the case.
Ning Ren had not completely let down his guard against the red star in the seal below. For such a long time, Tianxiao had been silent, and he had to suppress the playful counterattack completely.
But Ning Ren always felt that this was not Tianfeng's real trump card. He tortured Tianfeng every day, but what he got was not its real counterattack. It was more like a cautious test of his strength.
Before confirming the form of Tianfeng's counterattack and his trump card calculations, Ning Ren didn't dare to call others up. There were only the two of them on the cliff.
So Yu An lived with his benefactor in everything he ate, wore, lived and traveled.
At first, the benefactor simply forgot that he was sick.
Then he would forget to take his medicine and occasionally forget to wash up - Yuan, who has obsessive-compulsive disorder, would occasionally forget even these things that were repeated every day.
This is very serious.
He wanted to call a witch doctor, but Yuan wouldn't let him and told him that this was normal.
Yu An didn't understand why this actually very dangerous situation was called a normal phenomenon, but he always listened to Ning Ren and didn't go.
He almost turned into a little tail, following Ning Ren every day.
From a shy little fish to a chatterbox little fish, Ning Ren would be reminded of the same thing many times a day.
Ning Ren forgot to sweep the snow from the magnolia tree, so he went to do it. Ning Ren forgot to thaw the meat for dinner, so he went to grill it after thawing it... It seemed like there was always something to do in a day.
Before the New Year, Yu An had plenty of free time to grieve over his own ugliness. After the New Year, he wished he could mutate into eight more arms. Sad? What sadness? Damn it! The benefactor's medicine hadn't even been brewed yet!
They went down the mountain to collect supplies once every three days. Ning Ren didn't remember to oversleep, so Yu An went to get it himself.
Before, his benefactor was with him, but he did not have his benefactor's ability to teleport. He hurried on, panting, and relying on his smooth scales, he dived directly from the top of the mountain and slid down on the wooden board.
He screamed “Ahhhh” and rushed all the way to the bottom of the mountain.
Directly knocked Fan Ze, who was guarding the supplies, away.
...Fan Ze originally thought it was a wild boar and was about to attack, but he found that the person standing on it was the clownfish picked up by the teacher. He just stopped the attack and pierced the fish with his tail, but he didn't have time to dodge.
The two fell into a pit in the scorching snow.
Fan Ze picked up Yu An with a dark face.
"I'm sorry!" QAQ, Yu An stood up straight and apologized immediately, "I didn't mean it!"
Fan Ze took a few deep breaths: "...Where's the teacher?"
He knows this little fish.
In late autumn, the teacher came down to get supplies, and suddenly there was an ugly little fish beside him, and everyone would ask a few more questions.
The teacher carefully explained the clownfish's experience and asked him to tell the people of each tribe that the clownfish was not a mutant contaminated by the red star, but just failed to transform.
The clownfish had been bullied for so long, and the teacher said that it was also his own fault, so he wanted to take the clownfish in to accompany him and teach him martial arts as compensation.
After this news leaked out, the students who had been taught directly or indirectly by the teacher were completely upset.
Normally, none of them could see the teacher, so they were all fair and just, waiting for the teacher to find out what was going on and come back to teach them. But what happened? What happened!
As a result, a little fish that they had never heard of became the only student of the teacher just because the teacher took pity on him?
Yes, students.
Although Ning Ren did not say that Yu An was his student, in the eyes of other students from various tribes, this was favoritism!
Damn stinky fish.
Now I’m probably going to learn a lot of the teacher’s secret techniques!
When the Red Star descended and the teacher had to guard the place alone, each tribe pondered over what the teacher said, and even pulled over the first batch of students who had spent the longest time with the teacher to ask the teacher what the meaning of his words was.
...In fact, Fan Ze sincerely felt that the teacher's words were just superficial meanings.
But the leaders were afraid that the teacher would get angry, so they pulled out almost all the people who had bullied the little fish and beat them severely.
After the fight, they were thrown to the place where the fortress was built.
Fan Ze's thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.
Yu An patted the snow off his body and said, "My benefactor is sick and sleeping. So I came here by myself." When he was outside, he only mentioned his benefactor and not A Yuan.
Fan Ze: "Teacher, are you feeling better? We've sent some new herbs this time."
Yu An: "Yes! I took good care of you!"
Fan Ze: “…”
I don't quite believe it.
Since he couldn't go up, he tied the supplies to the wooden board that Yu An used to slide down, tied a piece of rope to Yu An, and then pulled it to make sure it was strong.
"alright."
It was the first time that Yu An did not cover his face in front of outsiders. All he could think about was going back quickly, otherwise his benefactor would forget something when he woke up.
He rushed forward carrying these things in a hurry.
Fan Ze hesitated: "Wait a minute..."
Yu An turned his head: "Hmm?"
Fan Ze took two quiet breaths, as if making some kind of resolution: "Wen Guang...something happened."
"A strange golden color appeared on his body, and his hair turned completely white. He looked like an old man, and his mind wasn't quite right. Zi Teng wrote on a piece of paper, saying that Wen Guang didn't allow her to talk to the teacher about this. She asked me to ask the teacher if I could help."
"If the teacher agrees, she will personally drag Wen Guang to see it."
Yu An didn't know Wen Guang, but he wrote down the incident and repeated it twice to make sure every word was correct before carrying the things up the mountain.
When he reached halfway up the mountain, his head suddenly buzzed and he suddenly fell to his knees.
The nose started bleeding.
Two drops of blood fell on the clean blood.
A trace of black energy was stirring in Yu An's body.
Yu An regained consciousness, cried out, and quickly pulled a piece of coarse cloth from his pocket to wipe his nose. He thought the nosebleed was caused by the cold and the dry weather.
He shook his head and felt no longer dizzy, then he picked up the supplies and headed towards the top of the mountain again.
Black air flowed out from his body.
Hovering over the two drops of blood on the snow.
Tianxiao in the sealing seal opened his eyes and his tentacles began to dance happily.
This little fish once came close and accidentally touched the seal, so it was able to send out a wisp of parasitic power from its own origin.
This parasitic power is very small, but it is indeed a part of its origin. Every extraterritorial monster can only split once in its lifetime.
At critical moments, you can abandon your original body and use this only wisp of black energy that can be split to resurrect.
It is extremely painful and risky to cut it, and if you are not careful, it will be destroyed.
But it didn't matter. Its body was intact, and it only needed a small amount of this world's blood and energy to establish a connection with this world in a short period of time, generating a continuous flow of weaker parasitic power, and then -
Swallow this world and rapidly grow stronger.
The man on the top of the mountain was staring at it too closely, so it could only implant the original black energy in this stupid fish and use his body to conceal the breath of the original black energy.
But by doing this, this strand of origin will be bound to the silly fish and will not be able to parasitize on someone else again for the time being.
Tianfeng didn't care. It beckoned the silly fish to kill one or two ordinary birds, and while the man wasn't paying attention, throw them into the seal or around the seal. Then it could slowly plan, swallow the blood and energy, and grow.
The original black energy can absorb the malice of the host to strengthen itself. It can even control Yu An to hunt prey with high blood energy.
But soon, it discovered that this silly fish had no resentment in his heart, only anxiety caused by usual worries.
This little bit of anxiety, even if it accumulates energy for many days, can only disturb the thoughts of the host for a few seconds.
Tian Feng: "..."
It really didn't understand why the silly fish would worry and be anxious just because the man ate a few less bites of food.
waste.
It began to stare at the birds flying in the sky, cursing them to die and fall into the seal.
Not long after, the man on the top of the mountain did not hesitate to expend a huge amount of mental energy to completely cover the seal with a barrier. Not to mention a bird, even a dead insect could not land on the seal.
Tian Feng: "..."
It doesn't matter.
As long as there is a drop of blood, it can seize the opportunity to turn the tables.
After waiting and waiting, it finally got the opportunity today.
The original black energy lingered on the two drops of Yu An's nosebleed. It was extremely thin and small. It only dared to come out for a short time when Ning Ren was asleep and far away from the top of the mountain.
It tried its best to wrap up the two drops of blood and transport them out of the seal.
Tianfeng was concentrating on controlling his own black energy. Suddenly, Ning Ren, who was sleeping soundly, turned over in bed.
Tianfeng sensed the change in his breath and paused.
Wait until his breathing becomes steady before continuing.
Damn it, it’s all because of that stupid fish, otherwise the original black energy wouldn’t be so weak, and it wouldn’t be so difficult to transport two drops of blood.
A few seconds later, Yu An, who had walked more than ten meters ahead, suddenly ran down and stopped in front of the two drops of blood.
Tian Feng: “?”
The black air penetrated into the snow and waited to see what would happen.
Yu An took out the coarse cloth he used to wipe his nosebleeds—the same cloth he usually used to wipe the table—and used it to pick up the two drops of blood along with the snowballs on the snow.
The clownfish said to himself: "This is the mountain of my benefactor. I cannot let my blood stain it."
He came clang-clanging and ran away clang-clanging, leaving two cute little holes in the snow.
Tian Feng: "..."
The monster under the seal had its eyes bulging, and after its frozen tentacles came to its senses, it began to whip the seals around it frantically.
Ahhhhhh!
This stupid fish!
