Chapter 143: Urgent Thoughts
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
Originally, he was still explaining yesterday's experience to Mengxi beside him, but suddenly found that the girl was silent, Ying Xuan felt puzzled, and hurriedly turned his head to look, just meeting the girl's eyes.
"No, nothing..."
Mengxi briefly glanced at Ying Xuan, and suddenly felt an extremely strong unconsciousness on his face, and instantly turned his face away.
The girl didn't listen to Ying Xuan at all, and just stared at his side face.
Mengxi, who turned his face, even if it wasn't a real body but a phantom body, couldn't help but climb a thick flush on his little face for a while.
“......”
Looking at the girl's extremely strange performance, Ying Xuan also looked extremely puzzled when he saw this, scratched his cheek slightly, and didn't continue to think about it deeply, after all, he was not good at guessing girls' thoughts, especially girls like Mengxi.
For a while, the two walked slowly forward side by side, and neither of them spoke out to provoke new topics.
Maybe it was because Mengxi, who was naturally lively and active, couldn't bear this obscurity atmosphere, or maybe her originally blushing cheeks had returned to their original state, she finally turned her face, looked at Ying Xuan, and asked in a coquettish voice, "Noah, where were you from a long time ago?"
Faced with the girl's sudden question, Ying Xuan was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Mengxi to ask himself such a question.
What Mengxi said a long time ago, in fact, was before the catastrophe came, although the total time for the catastrophe to come to the world was only more than a year, but the extremely stable days before the catastrophe were as long as it had been for thousands of human beings who suffered from the catastrophe and died after the catastrophe.
In their memories, those days seemed to be so far away that they were so far away that they were completely unfamiliar.
"I originally lived in Yanyue City, which is now Lanyue City. ”
Soon, Ying Xuan, who was slightly stunned, reacted and replied softly to Mengxi.
Of course, the answer was still the same nonsense that had been used earlier to Ifa and Catherine.
"It turns out that you are a resident of Yanyue City, the predecessor of Lanyue City!"
After Mengxi listened to Ying Xuan's words, his face was as good as before, and he didn't have the slightest suspicion, but nodded slightly, but his pretty face was more and more interested.
She was still very clear about the Yanyue City that Ying Xuan was talking about, after all, she also lived in Yanyue City before the Great Tribulation, so when she heard that Ying Xuan was also a resident of Yanyue City before the Great Tribulation, she couldn't help but be more interested in his past.
"And what did you do before?"
"You look like you're just starting high school, right?"
"Hey~ What school are you from?"
"Maybe we used to be the same school, maybe I'm still your senior sister~"
Mengxi had obviously completely recovered from her previous extreme shyness, and a series of questions made Ying Xuan in front of her look helpless.
Especially when Ying Xuan heard the girl say that she might be his senior sister, Ying Xuan's face couldn't help twitching slightly, because of a series of life-threatening encounters, he naturally tried his best to search for some information about the past in this world, and naturally understood the specific meaning of Mengxi's words.
"The second middle school of the hot moon. ”
Ying Xuan whispered as she walked forward.
Of course, the name of this school is also a good rhetoric he found in advance, and it is estimated that with that obscure popularity, few people should have heard of it.
"What a pity~"
"I haven't heard of it~"
Sure enough, after listening to Ying Xuan's answer, Mengxi shook her head regretfully and said in a coquettish voice without thinking about it.
"That Noah, what other relatives do you have......
Mengxi, who had just opened her mouth to continue looking for a new topic, knew that she shouldn't have asked this question the moment she asked this question, and she suddenly felt the shadow walking in front of her, stopped, and her whole body seemed to be constantly exuding a particularly strong sense of coldness.
Mengxi couldn't help but stop, staring at Ying Xuan in front of him, Ying Xuan didn't speak, just tilted his head slightly, and glanced back at Mengxi behind him, but that glance was extremely cold, and Ying Xuan completely changed back to his original indifferent appearance.
Seeing this, Mengxi knew that the question he had just asked must have violated the taboo or sadness in Ying Xuan's heart.
In fact, Mengxi is very clear that the catastrophe that suddenly befell the world, and the black dark tide that rushed up, swept all over the world in a frenzy, eroding all the light and warmth in the world.
And Yanyue City, as the most important geographical location for the outbreak of the Great Tribulation, naturally suffered a huge and tragic damage, and it is estimated that Ying Xuan's relatives are likely to have died in the calamity.
Seeing Ying Xuan look back at the intense coldness and indifference in his eyes, Mengxi really wanted to raise his head for a while, took his hand and told him sincerely: If you don't have a relative, I can be your relative!
It's a pity that she can't say that, not to mention that she and Ying Xuan have only known each other for a few days, such a sudden revelation is too sudden, even if she really has a great affection for Ying Xuan, she can show it to him as much as possible, but she can't be so proactive.
Although she said this, in fact, her attitude towards Ying Xuan all along was already obvious and straightforward, but there was nothing to be done, Ying Xuan's emotional response was too slow, and the expression of Mengxi couldn't help but become stronger and stronger.
She could tell that Ying Xuan was not the kind of person who accepted feelings easily, and at this moment, there was still a strange light of slight distrust in his eyes.
Mengxi could only lower his head slightly, pretending to be aggrieved and admit his mistake.
Ying Xuan didn't say anything, and soon seemed to realize that he had just lost his temper, and the incomparable chill on his face gradually subsided and dissipated, but he didn't have the feeling he had when he talked to Mengxi just now.
He found that as time passed, he became more and more eager to leave here, return to the original world, and return to Yechenxi's side, and he missed the girl all the time......
“......”
The two of them walked forward side by side without saying a word, surrounded by wild grasses and barren forests, gravel and fine sand, swaying and scattering with the cold wind that swept from nowhere, completely lonely and desolate.
"It's here. ”
Ying Xuan looked at the messy stone hill not far in front of him, and then raised his hand to look at the picture projected on the display screen of the bounty mission card he was holding.
The red dot shown in the screen is the messy stone hill in front of you.
Mengxi didn't know if it was because Ying Xuan treated her coldly just now, or because of something else, she didn't say another word, but nodded slightly at Ying Xuan.
Ying Xuan glanced at Mengxi, and didn't seem to care too much about the girl's taciturn at this time, maybe for him, it would be better for Mengxi not to speak.
Pulling out the short knife at his waist, Ying Xuan put away the bounty task card, and prepared to pick up the knife and walk towards the messy stone hill not far in front of him.
Although the bounty mission he received this time was still a D-class mission like yesterday, it changed from a simple reconnaissance to a more difficult hunt.
He wants to hunt and kill twenty stone monsters in this chaotic stone hill, and take the Yuan stone gall derived from their bodies.
Just as Ying Xuan raised his foot with his knife and was about to walk forward, Mengxi, who had not said a word since the beginning, hurriedly reached out and gently grabbed him.
Ying Xuan looked back at Mengxi who was holding him suspiciously, and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Didn't I give you a leather bag in the Laixi Tavern?"
"Why don't you wear that jade armor bracer inside?"
Mengxi Qiao's face showed extreme caution at this moment, and she asked softly while holding on to Ying Xuan.
"I forgot, I'm going to put it on. ”
Ying Xuan, who was slightly stunned, hurriedly took out the jade armor bracers from the leather bag on his waist.
This pair of jade armor bracers is dark purple throughout, showing an extremely crystal clear dark purple black jade luster, extremely gorgeous but not too heavy, but unusually light in the hand.
Because Ying Xuan was used to holding a knife in his right hand, he quickly put it on his left arm, and after wearing it, he waved it lightly, and he didn't feel the slightest weight, but it was clear that it must be extremely hard and its defensive power must be amazing from the extremely bright, metal-like dazzling luster that flashed out of the jade armor wrist guard.
"Teacher, wait for me here. ”
Being called teacher so actively by Ying Xuan, Meng Xiqiao's face was stunned for a moment, and then instantly turned into extreme surprise, obviously not expecting Ying Xuan to call her teacher again after looking at her coldly.
Originally, she thought that the one who asked Ying Xuan to call her teacher would become a joke after she inadvertently angered Ying Xuan, and she didn't expect Ying Xuan to continue to call her teacher for a short time, but she didn't expect Ying Xuan to call her teacher again.
When the word teacher blurted out, Ying Xuan couldn't help but lose his mind for a moment, he didn't expect that he couldn't help but bring the title of teacher as soon as he opened his mouth, and after calling out, he actually felt natural for a moment.
Hiding the strange look on his face in time, Ying Xuan naturally and calmly handed the leather bag in his hand to Mengxi, then turned around and picked up the knife and walked slowly towards the chaotic stone hill not far away.
"This guy is so good at pretending!"
"It seems that I have to be more aggressive in the future, otherwise if the teacher knows that I am so submissive to a guy who has fallen in love with him for a few days after we met, he will definitely laugh at me!"
Seeing that Ying Xuan had walked far away, Mengxi had just recovered from the trance just now, and stared at Ying Xuan's back tightly, muttering softly.
Before Mengxi met Ying Xuan, she never thought that she would fall in love with anyone so easily, and even she never thought that she would like anyone, about this, she once swore to boast in front of her teacher's throne.
With a high heart, she always thought that only a man who could match her teacher was qualified to make her dream fall in love, but she didn't expect that the oath she once boasted about Haikou would be completely shattered into a joke within a few days of seeing Ying Xuan.
Of course, Mengxi himself seems to have just felt that Ying Xuan is very unique after seeing Ying Xuan, and is slightly interested in him, wanting to observe Ying Xuan more, but he didn't expect that the original intention of observing the girl was completely sprouted and sunk, so that now it can't be taken back at all.
