Chapter 164: Yellow Sand
The more Edgeworth traveled to the northwest, the more Tang Xiaobai could feel the desolation and darkness of the Gobi.
Covering the clouds and covering the sun, the yellow sand is all over the sky. It intensified, and in the end, people couldn't even open their eyes.
From time to time, there are gusts of wind blowing, carrying gravel all over the ground, and the whining sound when the wind blows through the cave can be faintly heard, which is terrible and piercing, like a hundred ghosts crying, at first hearing it, it makes people's hairs stand on end, and the scalp is numb.
Tang Xiaobai gritted his teeth and persisted for most of the day, but finally gradually exhausted, and could no longer support himself to continue to fly in this snow-like wild sand, so he had to land slowly, wrapped his neck and face tightly with cloth, and only showed his eyes before he opened his legs and continued to move forward.
She learned that Hyun Gyu had left in the evening, and after instructing Aoi Valley, she immediately followed him, and it had been night and day since Edgeworth and walking.
But she never stopped.
After blowing for so long, the wind and sand seem to be gradually getting smaller at this moment, revealing the original appearance of the desert: a yellow and clear piece, some gently extending into the distance, directly connected to the sky.
A purple-red sunset was now hanging at the end of the desert, dyeing half of the sky blood-red, along with the slowly rising moon.
Blood Moon. This is a sign of impending catastrophe in the mouth of mankind.
Tang Xiaobai pulled down the face towel used to wrap his face, took out the kettle from the storage bag, and raised his head to take a few sips.
Licking his lips that were a little chapped by the dry wind, gritting his teeth, ignoring the tiredness on his body, Tang Xiaobai decided to continue to move forward.
Now is not the time to rest, because the later she arrives, the more dangerous Hyun-gyu will be.
"You really like him, don't you?"
A voice suddenly echoed in her ears, with a bit of resentment and unwillingness.
"Who?" Tang Xiaobai glanced around vigilantly.
The desert was empty, with no place to hide.
Suddenly, a pair of blood-red eyes appeared in front of her, very close, startling Tang Xiaobai subconsciously took a few steps back.
Qiting's face was wrapped in a black mist, and his red eyes were sad, "I've been with you since you entered Fenglin Prefecture, Xiaobai, it turns out that you really like him." ”
It was the third time she'd heard it.
Tang Xiaobai had a faint inexplicable irritability brewing in his heart.
Why do they all have to say that she likes Hyun Gyu?
In the same situation, if it were the wind season or the South Aoi Valley, she would still make the same choice and implement the same approach.
Does it also mean that she likes Kwai Valley, likes the wind season, and likes Nansui?
The flag pavilion floated in front of her eyes, and it was closer to her, as if it could hear the voice from the bottom of her heart.
He replied, "Not because of your actions, but because of the way you look." ”
Tang Xiaobai frowned at him, not planning to answer.
Qiting smiled bitterly, "Tell me, where the hell did I lose?"
He complained to himself, "I think I've done everything I can for you." You are unconscious, I have been by your side, where was Xuan Gui at that time? You lost your memory after waking up, and I was always concerned about you, and after handling the affairs of the sect for the master every day, I immediately rushed to wait outside your house, and where was Xuan Gui? After you recovered, Xu Zhuogong bullied you, and I was also ......."
"Flag Pavilion. ”
Tang Xiaobai interrupted him, "I've already told the reason, because I'm not Tang Xiaobai." ”
Qiting lowered his voice and roared angrily, "Tang Xiaobai, you don't love me, but why do you always bully me over and over again with such lame reasons? Do you think I'm like a fool?!"
Tang Xiaobai began to feel a little headache.
couldn't help but stroke his forehead, thought about it for a while, and simply changed his angle and said, "Qiting, do you think I'm very similar to that Tang Xiaobai you once liked?"
When Qiting heard this, his expression froze, "What do you mean?"
"I mean, did you really think about who you like?"
She looked at Qiting, "Do you like this me after the amnesia, or the me before the amnesia?"
Qiting stumbled and replied, "I... I like you, no matter what you become... I'm all... I ...... both."
“......”
Hearing his answer, Tang Xiaobai laughed out angrily, "Qiting, did you use your brain in exchange for becoming a demon?
She asked, "What is the reason why you like Tang Xiaobai?"
"Is it because of this face? or is it her?"
"If you can't even recognize the person you love after changing your skin, how dare you say that you like each other?"
Qiting was speechless by her successive questions, only holding his head and saying nothing, and couldn't help but feel aggrieved in his heart.
His little white can't speak so aggressively.
Thinking of this, Qiting, who was still aggrieved, was suddenly a little dazed.
Yes, he finally realized that the Tang Xiaobai in front of him was actually completely different from the girl he liked.
If she really changed her face completely because of amnesia and became a different person, then, does he really want to continue to like it?
If you really like her, isn't it also an act of betrayal?
"I'm sorry ......"
He lowered his head slowly, "I figured it out, it's not you who I like now." ”
Qiting sighed, "So, your memory won't be restored, will it?"
"Character will not be restored ......"
"What do you want me to do? Do you want me to let go?" he finally asked sullenly, like a child at a loss.
For her to be driven down the mountain, for her to fall into the devil, for her to pay all this, it turned out to be a vain dream in the end.
It's a nightmare that you can never wake up from.
"I'm not asking you to let go, I'm just trying to tell you that you're in love with the wrong person. ”
Seeing that Qiting was finally willing to calm down and listen to his words, Tang Xiaobai was a little relieved.
"The Tang Xiaobai you like, who was originally a fish in the heavenly pool, made a deal with the gods because of his greed for the prosperity of the world, and raised this body for me before I was reborn. ”
"She's always known how she ended, and she knew there was no way it would come to you both. That's why when she was still in the sect, she made the illusion of liking the beautiful boy under Yamashita to deceive you, and then decided to part with you, in fact, she was also very painful......"
... After listening to Tang Xiaobai tell the truth, Qiting was a little stunned, and he didn't know how to answer.
Tang Xiaobai didn't need his answer, and said directly, "That fish is now raised in a pool of clear ponds behind the bamboo house of the five elders of the Heguang Sect, and she still needs to cultivate for a hundred years before she can transform into a human body." ”
She thinks that a hundred years is too long, and she is reluctant to wait for you, so she has been hiding it from you and not telling you the truth, but she doesn't want to hurt you because of it. ”
... After hearing this, Qiting had already burst into tears, and finally knelt on the ground with a puff and confessed, "It was me who was wrong." ”
If he could have seen it earlier, if he had paid more attention to her, if he could have ......
"It's not your fault, and you don't have to blame yourself. Tang Xiaobai looked at him with pity.
Qiting raised his head, the blood red in his eyes gradually faded, and finally gradually changed back to the color of ordinary people, black and white, "Then I, can I still be with her?"
