Volume 2: Armageddon Chapter 64: Chance Encounter

"Roar, ......" With this low and powerful roar, behind the young man with a calm expression, a tiger head with sharp teeth and fangs slowly appeared from his shoulder, and his two eyes were as big as copper bells. Between the opening of the mouth, it can be seen that the mouth is full of sharp teeth, especially the four sharp fangs sticking out of the mouth, which are even more terrifying, and under the faint light of the flames in the field, it can be faintly seen that drip saliva drips from between the teeth, falling on the gray-black skin of the monster full of patterns.

Cui Houqing's face finally changed, he slowly stood up, and said coldly: "Saber-toothed tiger?"

The young man hadn't answered, his eyes were still looking at Cui Houqing, and suddenly he seemed to be aware, and he turned his eyes to look at the saber-toothed tiger, and couldn't help but be stunned, only to see that the vicious beast's always fierce gaze was even more greedy at the moment, but the target was not Cui Houqing and Wang Wenqing, but the barbecue meat that was being barbecued on the ground.

The enticing aroma of barbecue wafts through the air.

The young man suddenly smiled and said to Cui Houqing: "Your craftsmanship is good! I said why the saber-toothed tiger was restless tonight, I didn't expect to be attracted by you." ”

Cui Houqing said lightly: "Although the saber-toothed tiger is an ancient evil beast, fierce and fast, it has always been greedy, and a roast pig is nothing. ”

The young man shook his head and said, "Otherwise, my saber-toothed tiger is different, and the general food has long been ignored, and I can't imagine that I will be coveted like this by your seemingly rough barbecue." ”

At this moment, as the young man said, the saber-toothed tiger seemed to be particularly fond of this roast pig, and the saliva between his mouth and teeth flowed wildly, flowing down between his teeth, and suddenly with a roar, the saber-toothed tiger jumped out of the young man's shoulder, turned into a black shadow, and pounced on the flames.

The saber-toothed tiger roared and fell to the ground, revealing its true body, only to see its four-legged claws, its body looked at least four times larger than the barbecue, and the strangest thing was that the neck was extremely long, rising upward, almost doubling the height of the body.

Cui Houqing looked at the salivating beast, and suddenly said: "This wild boar hasn't finished roasting yet, and the taste is not up to the fire, what are you fighting for?"

He said this inexplicably, and even the young man couldn't help but look at him more, but the confrontational beast reacted, and the saber-toothed tiger stared at Xiao Ling with four eyes, but Xiao Ling was not chirping at the moment, but still opened his two eyes and glared at him. The four eyes of the two strange beasts were bigger than the other, and after a while, Xiao Ling shouted a few times at the saber-toothed tiger, and then seemed to lose interest, jumped off Cui Houqing's shoulder, and lay beside him, staring at the roast pig.

The four eyes of the saber-toothed tiger shook with the movements of the little spirit, and when the little spirit lay down, the evil beast screamed twice, and it was unbelievable that it slowly walked to the other end of the flame, the hind legs were retracted, the front legs swayed lightly, and it actually lay down in front of the flames, but the saliva in the mouth still flowed out involuntarily, looking terrifying, but still a little funny.

The young man watched the saber-toothed tiger sit down, walked over slowly, and didn't care about the dirt on the ground, so he sat down next to the saber-toothed tiger, looked at Cui Houqing, smiled slightly, and said, "Your Excellency, I can't imagine that there is such a means to allow the saber-toothed tiger to temporarily suppress its ferocity?"

Cui Houqing didn't look at him, sat down, his eyes fluttered back into the flames, and said: "You and I met by chance in the mountains, why do you know your name, it's just a roast pig, it's just a stomach." ”

The young man looked at Cui Houqing for a while, and suddenly laughed, laughing loudly, startling countless night birds in the distance.

"Well said, well said. He slapped his leg lightly, with a look of surprise and admiration on his face, and said, "A good one is just a stomach." Speaking of all living beings in the world, they are busy all day long, isn't it just for the sake of hunger. In this way, don't you say that the so-called "human" is no different from me, a saber-toothed tiger beast?"

Cui Houqing gently flipped the roast pig, and the smell of sesame oil on the pork became stronger, seducing the saber-toothed tiger on the opposite side for a while, but I don't know if it was to taste the delicacy or what, this strange beast that was known for its gluttony in addition to ferocity actually endured it.

The flames burned quietly, reflecting on Cui Houqing's face, and he said slowly: "People are still different. ”

The boy said, "What?"

Cui Houqing said: "Love and hate, people have feelings." ”

The young man laughed and said, "Don't you know that all beasts also feel that if you kill this wild boar, you should know that the wild boar is painful and afraid, and if I kill you, you will be like a pig." All beings are equal, so how can there be a distinction between humans and beasts?"

Cui Houqing raised his eyes, looked at the young man, and said, "There is a difference." ”

The young man's eyes were sharp and he said, "What's the difference?"

Cui Houqing said: "I have a big regret in my life, engraved in my heart day and night, life is better than death, but I can't help but live." Just like my friend, she gave up everything for me, and now that she is seriously ill, how can I abandon it?"

The young man was stunned, the fierce color in his eyes gradually faded, and then a strange look appeared on his face.

There was no sound in all directions, except for the occasional sound of branches popping in the fire. The strange boy and Cui Houqing didn't speak again, and the flames stretched and contracted, burning between them.

The color of the surface of the roast pig gradually turned golden, and a slight burnt smell emerged from the rich aroma at the same time, at this time, the surface of the entire roast pig was covered by a transparent layer of light oil droplets, Cui Houqing finally turned the roast pig a few times, and said: "It's okay, you can eat!"

As soon as the words fell, the saber-toothed tiger pounced at the same time, directly opened its bloody mouth, and despite the fact that the pork was still above the flames, he directly stuck his head into it and bit it down.

The saber-toothed tiger's mouth, the already huge mouth became more and more terrifying, and a huge roast pig was bitten by this monster in its entirety, leaving only one hind leg to be kept outside.

Looking at the greedy appearance of the saber-toothed tiger, the three people around the fire suddenly burst into laughter, especially the young man's laughter was the most weird and loud.

"I wonder what kind of illness your friend is suffering from?" the young man suddenly suppressed his laughter and shifted his attention to Wang Wenqing.

"She's amnesiac! she was badly wounded, and then she forgot everything. Cui Houqing picked up a piece of firewood and added it to the fire, only to hear the sound of "pop", and the sparks shot randomly.

"You came to Southern Xinjiang to cure his amnesia, right?" a hint of inexplicability flashed in the young man's eyes.

Cui Houqing nodded and did not speak.

The boy suddenly applauded happily.

"Okay, good!" He said that he was good for three lives, but when he saw the two people in front of him flashing with anger, he laughed and explained: "You guys are right, the most famous thing in this southern Xinjiang is medical skills, and the most commendable medical skills are the art of memory." ”

"Do you know the art of reminiscence? Could it be that Your Excellency is from Southern Xinjiang?" Cui Houqing raised his eyebrows.

"No, no, no, although Zai Xia is from southern Xinjiang, he has not learned medical science since he was a child, so he doesn't know the art of recall. But ......" Speaking of this, the young man hesitated slightly, and a trace of embarrassment flashed on his face.

"But what?" Wang Wenqing anxiously urged.

The young man glanced at Wang Wenqing, and the corners of his eyes trembled slightly: "But I've heard of this art of memory, it is only contained in the witchcraft of the Black Witch Clan, and the Black Witch Clan has been in seclusion for decades ago." ”

"What?" but Cui Houqing stood up anxiously.

"But if your Excellency is willing to give me the bird on your shoulder, I may show you the way!" a hint of slyness appeared on the boy's face.

Cui Houqing suddenly fell into a difficult choice, Xiao Ling was the master's ultimate relic, of course, it could not be abandoned. But now it is still important to heal the disease, and he is in a dilemma for a while.

The young man saw the embarrassment in Cui Houqing's eyes, so he smiled and said, "Since Brother Tai can't give up, can you summon your spirit bird down for me to admire." ”

Cui Houqing immediately no longer hesitated, picked up two fingers and put them in his mouth, blew hard, and a bright whistle sounded through the sky, and after a while, a black dot appeared in the sky, and flew straight towards them in a slight circle.

"Hungry, I'm hungry!" A call in the dark night, Cui Houqing only felt that his shoulders sank, and Xiao Ling fell on him. Over there, when the young man saw the return of the tongue-learning bird, his face showed a touch of excitement, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand, with an extra handful of grains in his hand.

"Roaring ....." saw the young man doting on the tongue bird, the saber-toothed tiger eyes widened, and he roared. The boy turned to look at the saber-toothed tiger and snorted, and the saber-toothed tiger became honest again.

Cui Houqing saw the young man holding the grain in his hand in front of his face, but Xiao Ling was unmoved, and shouted: "Take it away, take it away, Lao Tzu is not a chicken!"

"Poof!" Wang Wenqing's cold face collapsed suddenly, covering his mouth and smiling coquettishly.

Just when Wang Wenqing was laughing, the little spirit of the tongue-learning bird flew to her with a flutter, and immediately became restless. Then he rolled on her and shouted, "What are you laughing at, what are you laughing at, and then laugh at me and make your face flower!"

Cui Houqing slowly lowered his head, vaguely remembering that many years ago, on Tongtian Peak, the senior sister and Xiao Hei seemed to be so close. Time is like water, I wonder if she still remembers the beginning......

The young man suddenly broke the silence and said with a slight smile: "I didn't expect the two of them to be very close, didn't they?"

Cui Houqing glanced at Xiao Ash and the saber-toothed tiger, and there was a trace of warmth in his eyes, and said, "Not bad." ”

The young man turned his head, added a small branch to the fire, and was silent again, and after a long time suddenly smiled: "This saber-toothed tiger has followed me for I don't know how many years, I always thought that I was taking care of it, but I didn't expect to find out today that it is much happier than me." The smile on his face seemed to have a vague meaning of bitterness, and he said: "In addition to eating and drinking, even if you are not of the same kind, there is still you, a tongue-learning bird, who is willing to be friends with it." ”

Cui Houqing raised his eyes to look at the young man, and saw that his face was gloomy, as if he had an indescribable sense of loneliness, and said lightly: "If you are lonely, why don't you just find a friend." ”

The young man snorted and said proudly: "The world is so big, who is worthy of being my friend, and who dares to be my friend?"

Cui Houqing frowned, this young man's tone was so loud, it was really exaggerated, and he felt a little disgusted, but he saw that the young man seemed to remember something, his face was gloomy, and he whispered to himself: "However, it turned out that there was a person, and I really believed in her ......."

Cui Houqing looked at him through the flames burning in front of him, and said indifferently: "What?"

The young man's face suddenly turned cold, and he sneered: "Later, I found out that she was lying to me, not only that, but she also hurt me so badly, almost never to recover!"

Cui Houqing was silent, from the young man's expression, he unexpectedly recalled the past buried in his heart ten years ago, and the face of the kind monk seemed to appear in front of his eyes again......

He shook his head violently, but with the strength of his hand, the branches that had been added to the fire made a slight hoarse sound, turned into powder, and scattered all over the ground.

The young man glanced at his hand, and suddenly said, "Do you also have such a sad past?"

Cui Houqing's face was gloomy and he didn't speak, the young man looked at him, the light in his eyes flashed, and he suddenly said, "If you are going to die now, do you still have any wishes?"

Cui Houqing was stunned, his heart was confused, and in an instant, he had thousands of thoughts, one after another, this question that he had never thought of was suddenly placed in front of him, deep hatred, ten years of old wishes, this life has been stormy, but he has never thought about what last wish he has in his heart?

It's time to meet his senior sister, if he can see her again, he will be willing to die! This thought he thought about in his heart for countless nights during this time, and I don't know how many times and how many times. It's just that there is still that frost-like face, which can't be abandoned after all, and flutters gently in a secluded corner of my heart......

He was stupid for a while, the night wind was sluggish, and he didn't know how much time had passed, and when he woke up, the boy had disappeared, and the saber-toothed tiger on the ground seemed to have just soared into the sky, merging with the dark night, and its low roar could be heard from afar.
