Chapter 9
"Ahh I asked over and over again, "Why, why, why did I do this?" ”
I remembered that a few days ago, he still simply wanted to explore this world of flowers, to find the boy who was his only friend, and in just a few days, I lost everything I had, my dreams, my favorite family, all gone. The pain did not pity this young man at all, little by little it eroded his mind and fragile heart, and finally his eyes were dark, and he fainted from excessive sadness...
I don't know how long I slept, Qin Shuo felt an itch on his face, and slowly opened his eyes.
The afterglow of the setting sun spread all over the surroundings, and the first thing that caught his eye was a firefinch, Qin Shuo had seen it in the book his father bought, this kind of very common beginner-level fire-type demonic beast, the size was about the size of 2 adult palms, although it was not very strong, but it was very beautiful, and many aristocratic women loved to be messengers, but the image of the firefinch in the impression seemed to be a little far from the one in front of him.
Qin Shuo rubbed his eyes, feeling a little incredible, but then he realized that it was this firesparrow that had been tickling before that was caressing his cheek with his rotten wings. That's right, it's rotten, and if you look closely at this firefinch, not only are its wings rotten, but even one of its eye sockets is empty, and its original fiery red feathers have long been mutilated, and the whole thing looks like it has just been dug up after being buried in the soil for a long time.
But this did not make Qin Shuo feel afraid, he even reached out to stroke the head of the fire sparrow, and the fire sparrow also took the initiative to lean its head against his palm, rubbing it back and forth for a long time, which made Qin Shuo feel very incredible. Just as Qin Shuo wanted to pick up this firesparrow, an extremely hoarse voice next to him thought about it and startled him!
"It's called Angela. It turned out that the black-robed man who saved him had been standing next to him and waiting for him to wake up, but Qin Shuo's attention was on the fire sparrow, so he didn't see him standing next to him. At this time, Qin Shuozai took a closer look at Hebo and found that in addition to his strange voice, this person was also dressed strangely. The whole body was wrapped in a black robe, and only the two bright red balls of light under the cloak remained.
As this strange man spoke, Qin Shuo's emotions that had just eased up began to tense again, and the appearance of the black-robed man made him recall his father's death again, but now his emotions calmed down a little, although this strange and strange man had no intention of killing his father, but it was also to save him, and the real culprit should be Xue Jing. Then Qin Shuo looked around again, Qin Shuo was surrounded by a dense jungle, and behind him was an endless ocean. He had no idea where he was.
"Who are you, why did you save me?and, where is this?" Qin Shuo raised his head to look at the black-robed man who was much taller than him, and many questions began to burst out. After all, he had already seen this man's dark element, which was still relatively rare compared to several other types of elementalists, but at the same time it was also more dangerous. Since childhood, the Terrans have cultivated all kinds of insidious cruelty of the Dark Elementalists, and will do whatever it takes to gain power and achieve their goals.
However, in his heart, Qin Shuo has always felt that elements are just tools and ways, and it is the users themselves who really make them meaningful. However, why did such a mysterious and powerful dark elemental like them bother to save me from such an ordinary human child? There must be something in this that Qin Shuo didn't know.
Immediately, the man's throat made some strange sounds, "clucking" like a rooster crowing. But after Qin Shuo listened to what he said below, he guessed that this strange voice should be laughing.
"You can ask questions, but you have to come one by one, and we have to talk as we go, because someone has been waiting for us for a long time. After speaking, he looked at Qin Shuo, turned around and walked straight towards the small path. Angela immediately flew up and landed on Qin Shuo's shoulder, flapping its wings as if urging Qin Shuo.
Qin Shuo didn't say much, because he didn't have any other choice, if this strange man had spent so much time saving himself, then he might as well go and see what he wanted to do. And he also mentioned that there was someone else waiting for them, and believed him once, after all, if it wasn't for him, Qin Shuo felt that he was already a piece of charcoal at this moment, so he quickly followed the black-robed man.
Qin Shuo slowly followed behind the black-robed man, and only then did he slowly pay attention to his surroundings, this should be a primeval jungle, except for the path under his feet, there are traces of man-made construction, everything else is like a pure natural area with rare human traces, and the luxuriance of plants is unheard of and unseen by him.
The towering trees that he couldn't name, many magical creatures that he saw for the first time, and even occasionally one or two low-level magical beasts passing overhead or passing through the forest, the whole atmosphere was like a paradise, and even the air was fragrant, if it wasn't for this situation of losing his father, maybe Qin Shuo would really immediately rush to the red willow green to explore and play to his heart's content.
Although Qin Shuo was a little dazzled by the dream-like environment around him, he knew in his heart that there were more important things to do now.
"My name is Hebo", the black-robed man said lightly, but his feet did not stop, Qin Shuo saw him speak, and also retracted his mind and focused on the conversation.
"This is the middle of the Terran realm of Arano and the Demon realm of the Eye of Shuma, but not under the jurisdiction of either party, and we are on one of the islands. The speed of his speech was not fast, but Qin Shuo listened very carefully for fear of missing some key things, after all, it was up to him to judge whether the truth was true or not.
"Qin Shuo, maybe you're the first human to set foot on this island!" said Hebo with his staff still unhurried.
"Wait, how do you know my name?" Qin Shuo asked in surprise, his eyes staring at Hepo's back, he always felt that this matter was not so simple.
"Because," he paused, as if thinking of something, and then replied, "if I don't even know your name, will I go and save you?"
"That's a good point, but I don't know you?"
"There are some things that you will know later, and I won't talk about them now. After saying that, he changed the topic, and Qin Shuo didn't know what to say for a while. It's just that if he made this up, then how did he know my name? Qin Shuo had a big question mark in his heart.
"I saved you because I was entrusted with it, and I know you have to ask who this man is," he smiled at this, and then added, "This man is also waiting for you, and you will see it in a moment." Qin Shuo pursed his lips after hearing this, and stopped the topic. Walking here, he could vaguely hear the sound of a loud stream of water in his ears, and it seemed that he was out of the jungle not far ahead, Qin Shuo followed Hebo unhurriedly to the edge of the jungle, and his eyes suddenly opened up.
A wide open space suddenly appeared in front of him, and in the center was a square, pitch-black building, and in front of this building stood a tall stone statue, as if carved with some kind of magical beast.
Qin Shuo followed Hebo and slowly approached the black building, Qin Shuo looked at it carefully, and couldn't tell which race's architectural style it was at all.
Because among the many books that his father bought for him, there was a book dedicated to the architecture of various races, and it was also one that he liked very much, and he could memorize the architectural styles in it.
But the one in front of him really made him unable to distinguish what kind of building it was.
As the distance got closer and closer, Qin Shuo looked at the building more and more like a church, but it was black.
On the way to the church gate, he passed by the huge statue, and suddenly his heart suddenly seemed to miss several beats, which made him breathe for a short time, and in the dark, he felt that there was something wrong with this statue!
He took several steps back in succession and began to take a serious look at the pitch-black statue. Although Qin Shuo knew that he couldn't see it, he just didn't feel right. After all, most of Qin Shuo's knowledge came from relatively common books.
