Chapter 175: Being Underestimated (Chapter 2)
I saw that in the room inside the wall, in the pale silver guardian cover, a figure was sitting on the bed with his knees bent, his long blonde hair tied up high, and his white simple coat looked extremely elegant with his sitting posture, but the faces of the male and female Mo Xuan were full of anger, and the dazzling red pupils were staring at Julia's hand holding Mo Ye's neck at this time.

Is it the tenant next door?Looking at the slowly receding shield, Julia is even more angry, why is there no one to help them with the death of Himbell, the disappearance of Cassius and Link?yes, help? How is it possible? It is better to hide in the shield herself......
But what kind of eyes are that? as if she is the most heinous villain? Hearing Mo Xie's cry, no matter how angry she is, she can't use her strength in her hands, and she can't do it.
"Hmph!" Throwing Mo Ye into the corner and stopping Hadi who wanted to come forward to help, Julia stared coldly at Mo Ye who was crying loudly.
In the cold snort of Julia, Mo Ye's cry became smaller and smaller, and slowly turned into a choked throat, and finally hugged his head and pouted his little ass to face Julia.
"Elia, come and see!" Jerrick's sudden cry made Elia's eyes light up, could it be ......
"Look here, see if it's a clue they left behind?"
"Ah, that's ......," cried Gigilabi as he pointed to the shadows at the foot of the ruined bed.
Julia stepped forward and slowly squatted down, and took out a wooden sword from it, only to see that the hilt of the sword engraved with the shape of a cat had a bloody handprint that had dried up not long ago, this was ......
"This is the wooden sword I gave to Cassius!!How could I be here?" Unheard of the question in Gigirabi's ear, Julia stared at the small pool of blood where the wooden sword had been placed, her eyes deep and incomprehensible.
"Julia, what's wrong?" The skeleton leader, who first noticed that something was wrong, reached out to pull Julia up, but before the words fell, Julia suddenly stood up, kicked the obstacle of the broken bed, and quietly stared at the blood stains on the ground exposed to everyone's eyes.
"Huh, is there a clue here?" Seeing the strangeness of Julia, Hardy crouched down and carefully studied the blood stains. Only Julia's face slowly softened, but then she became confused and uncertain.
Because the blood stain showed the word "ok", and the last stroke was long, which was obviously left when it was urgent. Others may not know, but Cassius had often heard her say "ok, yes, no, hi, 3q...... more than 10 mantras, and in curiosity, Julia taught him how to write.
Julia gently rubbed the wooden sword in her hand against her face, not expecting that the few words she had taught on a whim had become the current code. What was Cassius' message? Are they safe? But why did they disappear without a sound, and who took them?
What does this "ok" mean......? Their captors were so powerful that Cassius was so afraid that she would deliberately mislead her, lest there be a head-on conflict and let her not go to the rescue?
Thinking of this possibility, Julia's heart skipped two beats. Cassius knew she had the presence of Jigirabi, and she wouldn't be so stupid. Maybe they're really safe? Ridiculous, so why kidnap them?
Looking at the blood stains on the ground for a long time, Julia took a deep breath, perhaps, they are safe for the time being!
Sensing everyone's gaze, Julia looked around with a firm look: "Before noon, we must get out of here." Of course, going to Cassius and Link is a no-brainer. β
Raising his eyes to the skeleton leader: "After we leave, the following things, please." β
Julia turned to look up at the sky, a thick cloud in the distance was slowly approaching, greedily reached out to the void to grab the ray of sunlight, and sighed lightly: "At least, help us buy some time." I don't want anyone here to be injured or missing, or even killed. β
The rapid transformation of Julia made everyone silent, very worried, and the skeleton leader turned his head to look at Lan Maru and nodded silently......
The noisy Cangyuan City is like a drunk who has fallen asleep after playing drunk and crazy at this time, a team of people and horses are busy quickly and methodically, and there is no movement from all sides in various strongholds at this time, and last night's battle made most people feel palpitations and stay away.
But...... This is only scratching the surface......
A figure suddenly leaped in, quickly approached the Skeleton Leader's ear and whispered before leaving.
The Skeleton Leader glanced at Julia worriedly: "Julia, let's leave quickly! In the middle of the conversation just now, we have secretly captured 23 spies. The more we hinder, the higher the corresponding intelligence code, I'm afraid of ......"
The answer to him was the back of Julia leaping into the ground......
In front of the inn, Julia's empty eyes looked at the flames that devoured Simbert's corpse, Gigilabi lowered her head and sniffed, Hardy and Jerek's wordlessness seemed to regret the loss of such a young life, and Xiaobai fell into a deep sleep again in Jerek's arms......
It seems that even the heavens are infected by this heavy atmosphere, and white snowflakes slowly fall. Dense white snow, white feathers, red flames, and black billowing smoke form a sad but untarnished picture.
Julia's clenched fists squeaked, stepped forward, let the heat wave hit her face, and whispered softly, "Rest in peace, Himbel! Link, I will take care of him and let him live happily." β
The melodious flute sounded suddenly, but the soft melody of sadness and sorrow seemed to be able to wash the depths of the soul, and the pictures of Hember's acquaintance so far flashed in her mind, and Julia's heart gradually calmed down, at least before Hember's death...... Laughing.
"Ah! it's a requiem!" said Hardy, thrashing his hands.
Looking upstairs, I saw Mo Xie riding on the neck of the blonde boy next door, looking at them with blank eyes, and the blonde boy closed his eyes and solemnly played a melody that held his heartstrings, and the wind blew through the fluttering hem and hair, making him look so noble and holy.
The melodious sound of the flute reached the bottom of Julia's heart, as if she saw the white feather incarnated into the white wings of Himbel, soaring in the sky carefree, waving goodbye to her.
Nodding gratefully, he turned and strode over to the Skeleton Leader: "Please send Hinbel's ashes to the city of Pumeldo, where there is her home, no, ours, to a man named Gillien." Besides, Aslan will ask you to help me tell him, and be ready to wait for my dispatch at any time!"
"Don't worry!" The skeleton leader patted Elia on the shoulder, "Aslan will be very happy to hear this." Not only him, but also me, will be ready and ready for your dispatch at any time. β
As soon as her eyes were hot, Julia plunged into the arms of the skeleton leader and hugged her tightly: "Thank you!"
The skeleton leader glanced awkwardly at the two Lan Maru not far away, and lowered his head to stroke Julia's long hair: "Actually, I want to leave with you and protect you at all times." However, I know what I should do for you right now, but I'm worried about your safety, and luckily, there's someone who is right to be by your side. However, whether it can play a protective role depends on your ability. β
In Julia's puzzled eyes, the skeleton leader pulled her up and came to Lan Maru: "Elia, this is Lan Maru, and this one next to her is Elena. Amanda, they're all my friends. They, ahem, they've been in some trouble lately, so it's better for you to go together and take care of each other. β
"Oh?" Looking at the smiling skeleton leader, Julia frowned and pondered slightly: "It's okay! However, knowing our troubles, he dared to walk with us, so he must not be holding back." My only request is: do not interfere or influence our behavior. If you don't mind, let's go together. After saying that, he jumped into a carriage next to him.
"Ahhhh......h
However, no one looked back, and it seemed that they had really forgotten his existence.
Julia turned around and saw that Girgilabi was already sitting in the carriage, quickly took out the soft quilt and put a thick layer under his legs, took the sleeping little white in Jereck's arms, and covered her with the quilt.
With a whip in hand, he looked back, "Jerrick, we're leaving!" and the sound of the horses neighing, splashing dust......
The blonde boy put away the silver flute in his hand, and his slender hand grabbed the tossing Mo Ye: "Be careful, don't fall off." β
"Do you want to leave with them? But, just now their expressions were so sad, but they seemed to be so affectionate and righteous, the deceased must have been very important to them, right? They even infected me, and I played a requiem for them. β
The blonde boy hugged Mo Ye, who was riding on his neck, into his arms: "I was stupid to say this to a baby." How do you understand that? But what is your relationship with them, and are they going to abandon you like this?"
"Ha, whoa...... "Mo Xie cried out, his hands stretched out in the direction of the departing carriage, struggling and twisting.
"You don't know that, but you know to follow them. You don't have to worry, I'll find you someone who loves you and put you in their custody. After speaking, he reached out and patted Mo Ye's back to comfort him, but who knows, Mo Ye raised his hand and pushed him to cry even more.
Hardy came to Peg next to the carriage and patted him on the shoulder: "You ......"
"Peg follows Teacher Hardy, wherever Teacher Hardy goes, Peg goes!" Just kidding, after being obedient and hiding last night, he was finally brought here this morning, and this old man wants to get rid of him now?
"You ......" the corners of Hadi's mouth curled: "Good boy, it's really not good without you, I still have so many things for your help." Suddenly a cry came, Hadi looked up and saw the crying Mo Ye, glanced at the carriage that had left Julia, and shook his head: "This guy ......"
"Boy, is there anything you're in a hurry to do next?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Silence means no, so do you have any plans to go next?"
Looking at the blonde boy shook his head, then nodded again, Hardy played with taste: "If there is, there will be, if there is not, there will be none." Seeing that you are so hesitant, you just think about it before answering me. However, I don't have time anymore, so I'll give you a ride, and you can take your time and handle the baby while you think about it. β
Looking at the guarded and hesitant eyes of the blonde boy, Hadi made persistent efforts and said ruthlessly: "This kid will die if he leaves him!"
"It has nothing to do with me!" said in a cold voice.
"Oh, has nothing to do with it? In this case, if you don't cry to death, you will toss to death! Forget it, since it has nothing to do with you, then I won't say much. Peg, go, let's catch up. Hardy jumped into the other car without looking back.
"Send it back, it's the same death!" he remembered the painful look of the baby in his arms being choked by the neck.
"How do you know if you don't try it!" Hadi spread his hands irresponsibly and shrugged his shoulders and said: "Let's go!
"Smack!" the carriage sped off as Peg's whip was raised.
β¦β¦
"Ahh
Looking at the blonde boy sitting opposite through the gap in his eyes, at this time, he was looking aggrieved and helpless to support Mo Ye who was crawling on his legs, and the corners of Hadi's mouth with his eyes closed and squinting curled: Hmph! He has a way to deal with a teenager of this age! After all, being a teacher for so many years is not in vain, and there are still psychological considerations and means that should be there.
β¦β¦
Until Elena. Amanda drove the last carriage and disappeared into the snowflakes and the forest with Lan Maru, and the skeleton leader turned around and wanted to leave, but in the next second, he had already appeared on the side of the woman in black and grabbed her slender neck: "I can kill you right now!"
Looking at the black skeleton tattoo, the eyes of the woman in black were full of fear, as long as the other party used force, her life would be lost: "What if...... Ahem, if I could say it, then, ahem, then I wouldn't have to risk my life to save me. Ahem......"
"At this time and then, you are not friends, and it seems that there have been conflicts. What's more, only the dead will not divulge secrets. The cruel smile made the woman in black tremble, she should have flashed first, but there is no regret medicine in the world.
"Don't worry, I won't take revenge to kill you, I just want you to swear. The cold light flashed: "Sign the cursed oath!"
"If it won't be leaked, it won't be leaked, cursed oath?" I accept!" said the woman in black strongly, she didn't dare to hold out any hope of being alive, the other party was a skeleton leader in the name of cruelty!
"Haha!" Feeling a light neck, the woman in black suddenly turned around, and found that the side was empty, and the skeleton leader had left. An oath without any curses...... If she hadn't answered so firmly, she would have been killed by now......
The woman in black sat slumped on the snow, letting the dense snowflakes fall on her body, Julia, who are you?
Julia smoked her horsewhip and fell into deep thought, they didn't leave through any of the exits, which should have been full of spies. They chose the most unlikely route, heading straight into the depths of the Sunset Mountains, rounding the edge and heading straight north.
Last night's battle made most of the demonic beasts on the edge obediently hide, which was convenient for Julia and her gang, and it was unimpeded all the way.
As for why they chose the north, since they didn't have any clues or directions to find Cassius, it was better to go all the way north as originally planned.
After all, Christian had prophesied for her to go north, so that at least there was a direction.
After a long day's journey, they finally walked out of the edge of the Sunset Mountains, and seeing that it was getting dark, Julia and Jerek quickly set up their tents. Hardy and Peg also came over to help, and Lan Maru and they built it on their own, and it seemed that they really didn't interfere with each other with Julia and his party.
It was late at night, the cold wind was fierce, except for Jerrick, who was in charge of the vigil, everyone who had simply eaten some dry food went to rest. After adding a few branches to the fire, Julia, who had been silent, stood up and walked to the tent in the middle.
With the help of the magic lamp in the tent, after pressing the corners of Jigilabi and Xiaobai, he slowly walked to the other side, only to see the blonde boy who had not spoken or even been hostile to her along the way lying on his side, and Mo Ye in his arms was sleeping soundly. Fingers rubbed against Mo Ye's neck, the pinch marks that had turned blue on it felt particularly dazzling, she couldn't imagine how hard she pinched at that time.
Although she knew some of Mo Ye's little secrets, he was a baby who couldn't speak after all, and perhaps, she was too naΓ―ve to think about it. Whether it's the Simbell siblings or Cassius, they don't want Mo Ye to be injured as a baby, right? Is it because she has lost her mind for a while, and she is only close to Simbell and her Mo Ye when she sleeps, how can she have the ability to save and not save her?
Scratched Mo Ye's little nose, maybe she really thought too much, maybe there was really a misunderstanding. She was dependent on a baby at the time of the accident......
She's so unreliable...... The red pupils flashed with a cold glow, as if something was bursting out......
"I'm sorry!" gently wiped the saliva left from the corner of Mo Ye's mouth, helped him re-cover the quilt, and walked out lightly. As everyone knows, when she stepped out of the tent, the blonde boy who was originally asleep suddenly opened his eyes, and his bright red pupils did not have a trace of sleepiness, quietly staring at the figure of Julia leaving.
Coming to the fire again, Julia, who had put on her cloak, took out the wooden sword and played with it: "This sword originally belonged to Tina! β
Julia stroked the blade of the sword and whispered, "Did Tina give it to Cassius?" or did Julia give it to Cassius?"
Only she knows that the question she blurted out just now is just nostalgia for distant memories, when is it?
However, once upon a time, she was both Tina and Julia, and now, she lives as Julia. Touching this sword, it seems that many memories come to my mind, and many feelings are full of my heart, and those memories feel very far away but seem so real and precious.
"No matter who sent it, you love Cassius with the same heart!" Under the firelight, the gentle eyes shone with a touching sheen, almost melting Julia.
Julia looked at these purple eyes, and almost couldn't resist the urge to touch them, this look was familiar to her. Once, she lay in his arms and played with his clothes recklessly, and her colored paws caressed his chest intentionally or unintentionally......
But now, at this time, the eyes in front of her tell her that memories do not only represent the past. Are these eyes looking at her tenderly now? is it her when she was a cat? or is she in human form? so jealous, how can it be? Even if the soul is the same person, how can Jerrick look at someone else with such eyes at every turn?
"Tina, are you really dead?" The hoarse magnetic voice sounded seductively in her ears, and the heat that hit her ears made Julia suddenly shudder and regain her senses. So cunning, she was almost hooked by the demon in front of her, wait, what does he mean by that?
The pupils of her eyes shrank suddenly, and Julia looked at the face in front of her in a daze, stroked the soft long purple hair, and said in a dry voice: "I can think that you are tempting me now?"
The corners of her mouth curled up, flirting? It seems that she is underestimated! Although she is wearing this skin, her age in her previous life and present life is also thirty years old, right?
Stretched out his index finger and crossed his full and sexy red lips along Jerrick's tall nose line, and met the deep and bewildered eyes: "Jerrick, you are so beautiful, not like a man, like a demon." β
Jerrick remained motionless, letting Julia's touch and staring at her with an exploratory gaze: "Are you really the quiet and shy Princess Julia who is only more than ten years old?"
"Pop!" the branches in the fire burst open, and the fire seemed to burn even brighter. Julia could see her stiff and stunned figure in those purple eyes.
"Don't be nervous, I just sighed, in a short period of time, has people changed so much? The steady, searching, gaze of the voice startled Julia, did she show her feet?
"Have you ever heard of being reborn after the catastrophe?" have you all died once, is it strange that your temperament has changed drastically?" Julia laughed wickedly, and stretched out her finger down along Jerek's chin to the Adam's apple, "What? Am I not a dignified and elegant princess now?"
The cold wind ruffled Jerek's long hair, and he suddenly raised his eyebrows, as if he hadn't laughed for a long time: "Then, may I ask, Your Royal Highness the noble princess, are you still satisfied with the body of this demon in front of you? It's not boasting, this body doesn't have the slightest flaw!"
"Who's to say no, you've got a ...... there," Julia retorted immediately, pointing to Jerek's right chest, but stopped halfway through the sentence, just stiffly meeting Jerrick's deep gaze. There was a wound, as Julia, she was not supposed to know.
"Ahaha...... Mistaken!" Julia quickly pointed to her left, "You've been wounded there before, I remember seeing you bandaged at the bottom of the cliff." It's embarrassing to say that there are no blemishes, maybe it's already scarred. β
Jerrick just looked at her quietly, and saw that the corners of Julia's mouth began to twitch, and suddenly his ears moved, and he blinked his eyes playfully: "Want to tempt Her Royal Highness the princess? Look, someone's messing with it!"
As Julia spoke, she turned her head to look into the distance, and her face, which was still smiling just now, instantly became gloomy. The bewitching red pupils flashed a strange luster, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he could finally relax.
"Do you want my help? or wait for your return, Your Highness the Great Princess!" jeric quipped as he looked at his trembling back with excitement.
"In that direction, it shouldn't be a chasing soldier! Since it's not a chasing soldier, let me make a big fuss!" What do you say?"
"Jerrick, I love playing games, and each time I choose a character that is nothing else but a warrior. Do you know why?"
"Game?Choosing a character?"
"There's nothing better than a knife to slash to vent. At this time, she couldn't suppress the surging in her heart, and if she didn't vent it, she would almost be unable to bear it. Before the words fell, Julia had already rushed out with her knife in her hand, her cloak raised high, and disappeared into the night.
Along the way, he forced his face to laugh and suppressed his inner emotions, but his eyes showed frustration when he was talking and laughing just now. Oh, princess?" Jerrick threw a few twigs into the fire, listening to the wind for him.
In a tent on the side, in the crystal ball in Lan Maru's hand, he watched all the actions of the two people outside just now, watching the little figure leave quickly, and he also disappeared into the tent ghostly.
Under the red moon, a small figure raised the black knife in her hand and looked sideways at the robbers who were about to flee in the distance, and at her feet, there were more than a dozen corpses. The smell of blood in the air successfully attracted a group of wind wolves, "Hehe, it's so cool! Not enough, not enough, let's have a few more!"
In the moonlight, those red eyes shimmered with the bloodthirsty luster of the needles of beasts......
