Chapter 5: Death Comes
"Then, don't disturb me whatever you see next, or the consequences will be serious!" Leto issued a stern warning to Wang Xiaobo with a straight face. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Oh my God, it's finally going to be progressive!" Wang Xiaobo couldn't help but sigh,
Leto leaned against the wall, his eyes closed, ignoring him. Seeing her little mouth squirming as if she was talking, Wang Xiaobo's eyes were full of anticipation.
"She's using a spell to extract the breath in the air, and then find the most critical breath and track it all the way to find the thief. By the way, this spell is called - Hound Dog. Mr. Cat suddenly appeared in front of him and introduced the girl's behavior to Wang Xiaobo, Wang Xiaobo raised his eyebrows in shock.
"By the way, you can call me Tom." The cat smiled at Wang Xiaobo, and then stood vigilantly not far from the girl.
Wang Xiaobo nodded, and then saw a faint hazy light gradually emerging around the girl, like fireflies, dreamlike points of light surrounding the girl. The scene that makes people hesitate to see it again appears in front of them, in the supernatural existence, a territory that only those who are allowed to step into. Seeing such a scene, Wang Xiaobo couldn't help but start to fantasize about the scene where he would also become a sorcerer in the future, and stared at Leto blankly and laughed.
The time in a daze always flies. After searching for information about the thief, Leto canceled the spell. Most of the points of light began to sway from side to side, then dissipated like fog and disappeared into the air.
Wang Xiaobo opened his mouth wide and subconsciously looked for the shadow of the point of light, but he didn't find the slightest trace. "It's so beautiful, is it really that dangerous to see such a beautiful scene?"
"Don't underestimate these points of light, if they are not properly controlled, the worst case scenario is that the spell will get out of control - there will be an explosion with a bang." Leto happily joked with Wang Xiaobo because he found the thief's traces. "If I let Tom do something to you, you might turn into dust in a second~"
"It's scary." Wang Xiaobo's forehead was full of black lines, but the slight dissatisfaction was quickly shattered by Leto's message.
"Based on the reaction, the thief must have run to an old hut on the outskirts of the city."
"Then let's hurry over! But is it really okay for a few of us to run over like this? We call the police...... Uh, wouldn't it be nice if the guards helped? It's safer to ask for help from people like that than we are now. Wang Xiaobo expressed his suggestion to Leto with a reasonable expression.
"No, you can't!" Leto rejected his proposal. Such a firm attitude made Wang Xiaobo roll his eyes.
"I'm sorry, but no. The guards have more important things to do, and I have reasons why I can't ask the soldiers for help. Leto pursed his lips tightly and stared at Wang Xiaobo with the eyes of "I can't say this reason".
"By the way, we don't know your name yet? I've told you my name, and you should tell me too. The sluggish girl suddenly remembered this, and excitedly wanted to use this topic to divert Wang Xiaobo's attention.
"Okay." Wang Xiaobo scratched his head, with a helpless expression on his face, "My name is Wang Xiaobo, of course you can call me Xiaobo." "Sure enough, the sense of existence is so low. Wang Xiaobo complained fiercely about himself in his heart.
"Wang Xiaobo, yes, what a strange name. It's not too early, we have to hurry. Leto's gaze lifted upwards to see that the clear sky that could have been seen had mostly turned golden. The sun has begun to set in the west, and it becomes more difficult to search at night.
"Then I can only sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman, besides, what is the difficulty of being a thief." Wang Xiaobo stared at Leto's eyes, and that determined look made Leto regret his decision to let him help before.
The girl sighed deeply, "In that case, let's hurry up!" β
The backs of the two were cast in the dim alley by the dim sunlight, and their bodies were covered with a soft light, and they stepped in the direction of the outskirts of the city. Along the way, Wang Xiaobo worked hard to adjust the atmosphere that became cold from time to time, and the estrangement between the two was gradually slowly eroded by Wang Xiaobo's efforts
The two of them unconsciously walked to the abandoned hut on the outskirts of the city, and the dim light added to the eerie atmosphere. It is conceivable that they will encounter difficulties here.
Wang Xiaobo asked Leto to wait at the intersection, and he circled around the hut first. It is said to be a cottage, but in fact, the house is not small, and it has to have a look of 3 or 400 square meters on the whole. Although the house is rumored to have been abandoned for many years, there is no serious damage to the house, and the windows are sealed, making it difficult to see the inside from the outside.
"This place is so big. According to my speculation, it should be inhabited. What are the reasons for us to get in? Our position is awkward. β
"Then go in with dignity! Let's say that we have something stolen, let us look inside, and if we find it, we will return it to us. "Her personality is too straightforward, and she doesn't understand the world at all. Maybe it was because of this that she saved Wang Xiaobo at that time.
"Well, I see, then let me handle it." According to her theory, it is very likely that she will be rejected, and Wang Xiaobo, who has no choice, can only take the initiative to ask for help. Besides, after all, the last trump card is to be the last to appear, and it would be good to let her come forward when the final situation is so bad that there is no way to negotiate, after all, she is the one who holds the strange power. Therefore, Wang Xiaobo made a decision without the slightest hesitation.
Leto was surprised by his suggestion, and the expression that directly revealed his true thoughts was particularly cute. "In that case, please."
"Hey! You even agreed?! I thought you'd turn me down again, after all, we talked all the way, and I thought I knew you a little, but that's it. Hey~ I really thought about it too much. Wang Xiaobo's complaint angered Leto, but she coughed and suppressed her anger, staring at Wang Xiaobo with her dark blue eyes.
"It's true that I've been dragged down by you before, but I want to try to believe in you. It was a decision made with the feeling that if I failed, I would have nothing to lose. But, come on! β
"Yes, I will." Wang Xiaobo smiled unnaturally, and then walked towards the entrance of the hut.
"Excuse meβis anyone there? Hey? The door was open. β
The entrance to the cottage smells of decaying wood. Wang Xiaobo, who wanted to knock on the door, found that the door was originally slightly open. But it was pitch black inside the door, and nothing could be seen. Even if you put your head in and look at it, you can't see your fingers in a room where the light can't shine through. Wang Xiaobo encouraged himself and strengthened his determination to go in, but before he went in, he remembered that there are usually people who control the wind at this time in the movie, so he turned back to Leto and said: "No one responds, I'll go in first to see, can you wind outside?" β
"No problem, but it's better for me to go in first. Uh, okay. But please take this. Leto originally wanted to go in first, but seeing Wang Xiaobo's firm eyes, he reluctantly changed his mind, took out a transparent spar from his arms and patted it, and the spar began to glow with soft light.
"Take it in, at least it'll have the light. Be sure to call me when you encounter a situation, remember! β
"Well, Leto, you must remember that you must not come in unless I call you." Wang Xiaobo finally mustered up the courage to say the name that had been difficult to say because of his shyness, and secretly observed the girl's reaction.
"What's wrong?" Contrary to his imagination, Leto's eyes widened at this and his whole body stiffened, and this unexpected reaction made Wang Xiaobo subconsciously ask. After a while, Leto shook his head.
"Nothing. I apologize to you when I get the envelope. β
"I don't know why you're apologizing, but I'll get the envelope." After saying this, Wang Xiaobo entered the hut with milk in one hand and a spar in the other.
In the dimness, the first thing I saw was a huge party table, which was supposed to be the residence of a large family, right? The tables are lined with all sorts of items. There are small boxes, kettles, swords, shields and other cheap metal items, and there are many types. But the small wooden signs above that are waiting to be sold reveal the origin of these things.
"It's all stolen goods." Wang Xiaobo walked into the depths of the room while watching.
"Huh?" The strange sensation on the soles of his feet made him stop.
It's not the feeling of stepping on a hard object, on the contrary, it's a liquid, not a feeling similar to water, but a sticky, glue-like thing that bites the sole of your shoe. Lifting his foot, he touched the sole of his shoe with his fingers, and sure enough, there was a sticky liquid attached to it. Gently touching the liquid with his fingers, an instant feeling of uneasiness filled the bottom of my heart. I put my finger in front of my nose and sniffed it, and a familiar fishy smell pierced through.
The restless Wang Xiaobo took the spar forward. When he was about to get up and move forward, he finally found the source of the strangeness.
In the faint light, I saw my legs lying on the ground, miserable, and blood flowing down the snow-white legs. Moving the light upwards, I saw the final source of the blood. A wound that ran through the entire stomach was directly exposed in front of Wang Xiaobo's eyes, and further up, was the lovely face he saw in the afternoon. But at this time, the originally lovely face was full of pain and fear.
The moment he realized that it was a corpse, Wang Xiaobo's brain was completely dominated by blankness, his consciousness seemed to have disappeared, and his hands and feet were unable to move as if they wanted to be frozen.
"Oh, it's been seen. Then there is no way. Well, then please die too. β
It was a woman's voice, a low, cold and languid woman's voice.
I was about to turn my head to the source of the sound, but my body was shocked and flew out. His back hit the hard wall, and the hedron in his hand flew out, leaving darkness in front of him.
However, Wang Xiaobo's consciousness is not in these things.
"Oh, it's hot. My stomach is so hot. This burning heat dominates Wang Xiaobo's whole body. His face tasted the solid touch of the ground again, and then he knew that he was lying on the ground. The whole body was unable to exert strength, and even the fingers were unconscious, and only this burning sensation filled the whole body.
Coughing incessantly, blood gushing out of his throat incessantly. There were blood blisters at the corners of his mouth, and his blurred vision was only blood-stained ground.
- Is it all my blood?
Feel the hollowness of the blood draining as you reach out to find the source of your burning power. It was only when he felt the scar on his stomach that he discovered the reason. No wonder it was hot, it was obvious that his body temperature reached freezing point due to excessive blood loss. The huge wound grinned wide, constantly devouring Wang Xiaobo's life.
Slowly, the consciousness gradually retained outside the body with the blood, and only the empty "soul" remained in the body.
The only thing I hope for now is that she will be safe and sound.
"Xiaobo? Where are you? The voice of the silver bell class came. But that voice didn't pull him out of the abyss, and his mind fell deeper into the trough.
"-uh!" A short wail, and someone was greeted again on the carpet of blood.
The body fell on its side, and the two of them weaved the carpet of blood even larger.
"You wait!" At the last moment when his consciousness disappeared, Wang Xiaobo saw the beautiful face with a shocked expression, and let out a meaningless roar like a mourning dog. "I'll - I'll save you." The voice continued to decrease as consciousness vanished.
In the next second, death came.
