7. Chapter 7
After the black bone turned into a human form, his favorite thing to do was to rush to hug Xuanli with Chu Jiu.
…… What the hell is this hobby, I don't know it's hot in the desert!! was almost about to be pressed down by two demons, and when Xuan Li struggled to crawl out, the hair all over his body was crooked, and he looked like he had been ravaged/ravaged.
The two demons, one big and one small, felt empty in their arms, and at the same time stopped fighting openly and secretly, glanced at each other, and turned their heads to look at Xuan Li who was standing aside.
Xuanli, who was combing the hair on his body, shuddered and looked back in confusion.
After coming into contact with the ill-intentioned sight of the two demons, Xuan Li rushed out like a feathered arrow off the string without saying a word.
Hum! I don't believe I can outrun you on two legs on four legs.
In the process of running, it is called a smoke billowing down.
The target is gone.
One big and one small two demons are extremely tacit: ......
Glancing at each other with disgust, the two demons quickly separated, and one demon occupied a corner of the cave.
After a while, Chu Jiu couldn't help but pick up a stone and throw it at the black bone that was teasing the demon plant on the other side: "Why are you still here?" ”
The stone arced through the air, and it looked like it was about to hit the head of the black bone; The whip around the waist of the black bone suddenly detached from his waist like a living thing, and shattered the stone with a "snap". During the whole process, Wu Gu didn't look back at all, and the whip honestly wrapped itself around Wu Gu's waist after doing this qiē, as if the previous qiē was an illusion.
Chu Jiu blinked, a little unbelieving, picked up another stone and threw it over, and in the end, the result of that stone was exactly the same as before.
"Okay, don't think that if Xuanli protects you, you can come nonsense." The black bone finally couldn't help but stand up, walked over, and scolded.
Chu Jiu didn't answer, looked up at the black bone who walked in front of him sternly, and asked, "When are you leaving?" ”
"Oh? Why do you ask? ”
"I just think you're an eyesore."
"......" Wu Gu felt that his hand was a little itchy.
In fact, the problem of the ninth day of the first month is not a whim. Because the Black Desert is the burial place of the ancient demon generals, there is a curse here: as long as the demonic beast that successfully transforms into a human form must leave the Black Desert within ten days, otherwise there will be a bloody disaster. The reason why it is said to be a legend is because the chance of the demonic beasts in the Black Desert transforming into form is too small, so there is no way to verify whether this is really a curse.
When it was time to sleep at night, Xuanli was sandwiched between the two of them. Chu Jiu relied on his small size, holding Xuanli's neck with one hand, and straddle Xuanli's back with one foot extremely domineering; The black bone is slightly better, but I don't know if it's his own illusion, Xuan Li always feels that the position of his hand doesn't seem to be right, because if he leans down, he will touch the root of the tail!
The posture of the three demons now is very much like a meat sandwich, but Xuanli is the meat, and he can't move. A little depressed twisted, only to be hit on the ass by the black bone "snap".
"Woo-" roared, and Xuan Li felt so aggrieved.
In order to divert his attention, Xuan Li put his nose on the top of the black bone and asked: [Do you have any plans for the future?] ]
“…… Didn't think about it. The black bone opened his eyes, and there was brilliance in those golden eyes.
[Will you stay with me?] ]
The black bone did not answer.
"He's not going to be with you." The sound of milk and milk sounded on the other side, and Chu Jiu put his head on Xuan Li's neck, glared at the black bone on the other side viciously, and said, "He wants to go to the alliance." ”
Hearing Chu Jiu's words, Xuan Li was a little overwhelmed, he didn't know whether he should go to the black bone to seek truth; Approaching the black bone, before he could ask in person, Xuan Li found that the black bone lowered his eyes and avoided his gaze.
Not daring to make direct eye contact shows that he has a weak heart. Xuanli vaguely remembered what a host had told him. The system should be cold by nature, but at that moment, Xuanli really felt a trace of sadness.
Since the fight was created zào, system 467 has not known how many years it has existed, and the host has changed one after another, leaving should be familiar to Xuanli. Xuan Li understood very well that there was no need for the black bone to stay for himself at all.
But I'm still so sad.
Sniffling, Xuan Li asked the little guy on his body: [You-] At the moment when he was about to ask the question, Xuan Li immediately changed his words: [How long will you stay with me?] ]
Xiao Baozi frowned and thought for a while, patted Xuanli, and returned seriously: "A hundred years at most." ”
…… Smash, can't you sell a cute to comfort Dad's injured heart?
In a trance, Xuanli was so sad that his ears drooped, and he whimpered and buried his head in his front paws.
The next day, when Xuanli woke up, he was the only one left in the cave.
Hey? Where have they gone?
When I walked out of the cave, I saw two demons, one large and one small, sitting on a rock not far away, with their backs to the cave together, honestly looking at the endless black desert below.
Walking to the bottom of the cliff, a few jumped on their position, and Xuan Li happily ran over and said, "[Are you guys living together peacefully?] ]
The black bone pushed aside the wolf head on his shoulder in disgust, glared at the little one next to him, and said, "Who cares about this little kid!" ”
The little kid twitched the corners of his mouth, stood up without saying a word, and jumped off the rock in a huff.
After watching Chu Jiu return to the cave from afar, Wu Gu patted the vacant seat beside him and motioned for Xuanli to sit down. Xuan Li squatted next to him, a little puzzled.
"I'm leaving today." Wu Gu said.
[Why don't you stay a few more days?] The words of the black bone were no less than being lost a □□ for Xuan Li, the heart in his chest was beating wildly, and Xuan Li was anxious to cry out to him, just begging him to be with him more.
A trace of unbearability slipped in his eyes, and Wu Gu covered Xuanli's mouth with his hand, trying to calm him down: "Xuanli, Xuanli calm down, there is a reason why I left." Seeing that Xuanli was still struggling, Wugu had to clamp his head under his armpit and force him to not move, "I'll show you this and you'll understand." "The nail of the right hand skyrocketed, and then it was clenched into a fist, and there were immediately three more blood marks in the palm of the hand; Originally, only a little blood came out of the wound, and the blood dripped down the palm lines and disappeared on the rock.
Because the rock is black, nothing can be seen, and the blood droplets are completely mixed with the black. After a while, a sudden vision occurred, and the blood droplets on the rock seemed to have turned on some switch, and the shallow wound in the black bone palm began to gush out a large amount of blood, which continued to fall down the palm lines, and then flowed into the rock; There was no blood on the rock, like a dry sponge, absorbing all the blood, and it seemed that the swallowing sound of the rock could be heard.
[You-] Xuan Li was dumbfounded.
Some flesh pained the whip around his waist to wrap around the wound, which was enough to stop the bleeding, and the black bone let go of Xuanli, explaining, "This is one of the reasons why the Black Desert can transform into a demon in human form, damn." After a pause, he came to his senses, and the black bone teased: "In the future, after Xuanli turns into a human form, remember not to make yourself out of the wound at will, otherwise you will be sucked dry by the desert." ”
[Will we meet again after that?] Xuan Li asked.
“…… Let's look at fate. ”
When the black bone said this, the sun was rising from the distant horizon, the sky suddenly changed from darkness to light, and the rock where Xuanli and the black bone were located happened to have no shelter; Unable to stand the dazzling sunlight, Xuanli's first reaction was to turn his back to the direction of the rising sun.
And Xuanli's turn, in the eyes of the black bones, its meaning is rejection. What to reject? Will you refuse his departure, or will you refuse to meet again? The black bone didn't dare to ask, and he didn't know how to ask.
Many years later, this scene is still fresh in his mind, and Wu Gu has always wondered if he would live a happier life if he didn't choose to leave if he did not choose to leave.
Of course, time can't be redone.
