Chapter 3: Distress Signal
Looking at the terrifying white worms in the bowl and their twisting and dancing postures, Xiaoban and Xiaowen felt their scalps go numb. They were so frightened that they backed away and hid behind Jiang Chen.
Xiao Wen hid behind Jiang Chen, stuck out her head, and said fearfully: "Grandpa, I still have chocolate bars in the car, so don't eat them!"
Let her eat these bugs, it would be better to go back to school directly, it is really terrible...
"Grandpa, I won't eat either!" Tian Xiaoban shook his head quickly.
Bang!
There was a crisp sound, and the iron bowl filled with bugs in Mark Tian's hand fell to the ground without any warning. The bugs immediately scrambled and fled in all directions.
Mark Tian did not answer the brother and sister, but stared at Jiang Chen closely, with shock in his eyes and a touch of sadness.
The eyes of this always resolute old man turned red and became covered with mist.
"Grandpa?" Tian Xiaoban was a little confused.
You know, grandpa has always liked to eat these rice bugs, and they are very rare. At this time, all the bugs were almost gone, but grandpa didn't even catch them and let them escape.
"Jiang Chen, is that you?" Mark said with trembling heart.
With gray hair, he took an old step and stretched out his slightly wrinkled palm, wanting to touch Jiang Chen's face.
He was afraid that this was him dreaming again, so many times, every time he wanted to touch Jiang Chen, the other person was like a phantom, dissipating in the dream.
Jiang Chen was startled and couldn't help but cover his head. Pain came over him, and memories came one after another like a surging tide.
It turns out that in this world, he is Tian Mark's grandson, that is, Xiaoban and Xiaowen's cousin. In an accident nine years ago, he and his parents disappeared in the endless sea, and there was no news.
His father is from Daxia and his mother is from the West, so Jiang Chen is of mixed race, but his appearance looks more like an oriental face, handsome, calm and reserved.
"Kid, are you okay?"
Mark hurriedly came forward and supported Jiang Chen's body.
When he touched Jiang Chen's warm arm, his eyes were full of joy and he said: "This time... this time it's not an illusion! Jiang Chen, you are finally back!"
After regaining his composure, Jiang Chen smiled and shook his head: "Grandpa, I'm fine."
Mark Tian was in tears. This plumber who was talked about by everyone as an alien villain also had such a tender side.
"Child, I have been looking for you all these years, but there is no news. Where have you gone, and where are your parents?"
Facing a series of questions, Jiang Chen found it difficult to answer and just shook his head, "I don't know. I woke up and found myself in the woods."
Grandpa is well-informed and guessed: "It should be that time and space have been disrupted. Since you can come back, I believe that one day, your parents will come back as well."
Jiang Chen nodded.
"You two little guys, why don't you come over here and say hello to your cousin?" Mark Tian smiled and waved to the surprised two people behind him.
"Cousin?" Xiaoban and Xiaowen opened their mouths.
Grandpa nodded, "Yes, Jiang Chen is your cousin, but you were still young and ignorant at that time."
In fact, later on, Mark Tian also thought about telling Xiaoban and Xiaowen that such a cousin existed, but in the end he canceled the idea because it would only increase the sadness...
"It turns out Jiang Chen is my cousin, that's so cool!"
Recalling the scene where the Flame Man showed off his power, Xiaoban became excited. With such a brother, who would dare to bully him in the future?
"Hello...cousin." Xiao Wen said hesitantly.
She felt a little regretful in her heart. It was such a pity that such a handsome guy was his cousin...
At this time, grandpa held Jiang Chen's shoulders and walked back to the old car.
"Jiang Chen, after so many years, your appearance has not changed at all. It's really amazing." Grandpa opened the refrigerator, took out a bowl of lamb tongue, placed it in front of Jiang Chen's table, and said with a smile: "I believe one day , Tian Xue will also come back to me."
Jiang Chen nodded slightly and said nothing more.
Tian Xue, Jiang Chen's mother in this world and Mark Tian's daughter, disappeared in a marine accident together with her father Jiang Hao. So far, there is no news.
Originally, Jiang Chen was also a victim of the incident, but for unknown reasons, he traveled to the forest a few years later and changed his soul.
Coincidentally, the owners of both souls are named Jiang Chen, but they are from different worlds.
"Stupid, don't grab my chocolate bar!" Xiao Wen's voice came from outside the car.
"If I get it, it's mine!" Xiao Ben retorted.
.....
The two brothers and sisters had a lively quarrel outside the car, as if they were born to be enemies.
Grandpa smiled bitterly and shook his head. He sat across from Jiang Chen and pointed at the smoked lamb tongue on the table, "Eat it quickly. It won't taste good after it cools down."
Looking at the dark strips, Jiang Chen's back felt cold and he shook his head resistingly, "Grandpa, can I not eat it?"
Although he watched some variety shows and the food looked delicious, including strange wild animals, bugs, and crunchy things, he was still a little uncomfortable trying it himself.
"Try it, you will like it." Grandpa said with a smile.
"Oh well."
Jiang Chen picked up a piece of sheep tongue and chewed it tentatively, but found that the taste was pretty good and not as disgusting as he imagined.
"See, grandpa didn't lie to you, right?" Mark smiled happily, his eyes full of doting.
Just when Jiang Chen was about to respond, the radio next to him suddenly rang.
"Help, help, someone come and save us!"
"I told you that you won't believe it. A huge robot appeared here and it's going to destroy this place!"
Zizizi.....
Accompanied by a burst of electric sound, the sound stopped abruptly, as if it was disturbed by something.
"Robot?"
Grandpa frowned. He was happy about Jiang Chen's arrival, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
At this time, Tian Xiaoban ran in from outside.
"Grandpa, there is a lot of smoke and explosions in the woods over there. Let's go over and take a look!"
"Okay, get in the car!" Grandpa no longer hesitated and walked quickly to the driver's seat.
"The stubborn people are really annoying. May I ask my cousin Daitou, do you have any way to save people?" Xiaowen put her hands on her waist. ŴŴŴ.
Tian Xiaoban smiled mysteriously, put his arm around Jiang Chen's shoulders, and said proudly: "With my cousin here, are you afraid that there is something I can't handle?"
Boom!
There were roars, and the old car rushed to the accident site at an astonishing speed like an arrow shot from a bow...
