Volume 2: The Awakening of the Ancient Eater Chapter 123: The Companion of the Spirit
When he came out of the room, Liang Xiao heard a crackling keyboard sound from Luo Yu's room, and it seemed that he had moved his position from the downstairs living room to his room.
Walking downstairs, Fanny was sitting there silently eating the cake that Liang Xiao bought, surrounded by the three cats.
Liang Xiao didn't know what had just happened, but judging from Luo Yu's return home, even if there was no conflict, it was completely cowardly, and he didn't understand that Luo Yu, who was dominant in the game, was so docile to Fannie, who didn't like to talk much.
However, Liang Xiao has had a question since a very early on, and this question happens to be about Fanny.
Because Liang Xiao has always found that Fanny seems to be very bad at communicating with others, not because of the problem of language expression, but because every time she talks to others, such as when she talks to Liang Xiao, her eyes never stay on Liang Xiao's face, either staring at Liang Xiao's arm, or staring at Liang Xiao's neck, otherwise although her face is facing this side, she doesn't know where her eyes are looking at at all.
It was like seeing a blind person on TV, with a wandering gaze and no focus.
Seeing Nan Qi playing with her mobile phone on the side, Liang Xiao walked over and sat down opposite her.
"Hey, Liang Xiao, are you going to sleep again?" Raising his head and glancing at Liang Xiao, Nan Qi grinned.
Liang Xiao touched his nose, a little embarrassed, since the last battle against Fenrir, he did increase the rest time due to physical reasons, plus because of Lianhua, he had to go to the Wanhua Mirror Realm at some time, so that the sleep time on the surface became more.
Sadly, the real reason cannot be said yet......
"Ah...... Maybe it's winter, and my body is urging me to hibernate. Liang Xiao half-jokingly, and then asked, "By the way, Nanqi, there is something I want to ask you." ”
"Ask, I know everything." Nan Qi said generously.
"It's about Fanny." Liang Xiao lowered his voice and leaned over to Nan Qi, raising the question in his heart.
"You say this......" Nan Qi raised her willow eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile after a moment of silence, "It seems that the room is a little too stuffy, how about going out for a walk with me?" ”
Liang Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then realized that she did say that her affairs were not very good next to Fanny, although she felt a little regretful, but it seemed that Nan Qi had already put on her coat while humming a song, and was ready to go out.
"The snow in St. Petersburg is actually very beautiful, but most people only go to admire the ice sculptures at the exhibition, and Russians are used to seeing them, and people abroad can't stand the cold here." Wrapping her scarf, Nanqi patted her hands with white rabbit gloves, "Did you notice?" ”
"The snow on the road has been cleared...... Liang Xiao said honestly, and to be honest, he and Fanny only had their eyes fixed on the air conditioner in the department store when they went out.
Nan Qi smiled indifferently: "Then go out with me and take a look." ”
The sun is gradually setting westward, it is already three o'clock in the afternoon, and the winter night in St. Petersburg is earlier than Liang Xiao's hometown, basically at five o'clock you can already see a round of crescent moon, and if you are lucky, you can still see the sun and the moon in the same frame.
Walking on the main road in the association, Nanqi spat white mist from her small mouth, as if she thought it was a fun game and enjoyed it.
"Liang Xiao, do you think there is anything special about winter here?" Nan Qi asked Liang Xiao, who was trembling slightly from the cold.
"Hmm...... It just feels colder than mine, and the rest should be no different. Liang Xiao thought symbolically for a moment, and then said.
"Hey, you really don't have a bit of a romantic mind." Nanqi shook her head a little disappointed, "Do you know what I thought at the beginning?" When I came to this place and knew that there were gods in this world, I thought that St. Petersburg was so cold because the god of winter lived in the North Pole, and it was so close to the North Pole, so it was so cold. ”
Yes, of course I'm afraid, if the god of winter in your mouth makes these snowflakes, if he wants to go against humans, it should be directly down with ice picks, or hail the size of a fist, and it is estimated that the whole world will be in chaos.
"So, in different places, when you have different identities, you will see things differently, of course it's me." Nanqi smiled and said, "What about you? What did you think when you first came into contact with these things? ”
Liang Xiao smiled helplessly: "What else can I think, I must not believe it, and then I have to believe it if I don't believe it if I don't believe it, and then it's now, even if I'm still thinking about whether I'm dreaming, but I don't even have the courage to slap myself, if it's a dream, it's not clear what it will look like when I wake up, if it's not a dream, I will still feel pain if this slap goes down, it's a loss." ”
Nan Qi couldn't help laughing, and then said, "Then let me ask you, if you were born with superpowers, what would you do?" ”
"You mean superheroes? It must be the same as Superman, hiding their identities, blending in with the crowd, and then using another identity to punish the evildoers, well, it's cool to think about. Liang Xiao said, it's all a joke anyway, and it's nothing if I've had a mouthful of it.
However, for Liang Xiao's words, Nan Qi did not resonate and laugh like just now, but showed a somewhat faint sad smile.
"Those are all in comic books, and they are not so pleasant in real life." Nan Qi said, turning his head to look at the white roof in front of him, "Do you know, among the spirit masters, there are some people who are born with spirits, which means that they are born with holy stigma on their bodies and have the power to control spiritual power. ”
"Fanny is born with spirits."
Born with spirits? Liang Xiao frowned in some surprise, and after hesitating for a long time, he asked tentatively, "But...... I remember Fanny's grade was supposed to be C? ”
"People born with spirits have an extremely fatal shortcoming, that is, their stigmata cannot be retracted freely, that is to say, their stigmata is activated all the time, which leads to their spiritual power always being in a state of loss, and more seriously, this stigmata that cannot be closed will have a serious impact on the surroundings." Nanqi said calmly, "When Fanny was still wrapped in the life of an ordinary person, no one dared to approach her, because as long as she looked at Fanny, that person would be hypnotized immediately, and at that time, if Fanny had a little dark thought in her heart, it would cause tragic consequences." ”
"Tragic consequences ......"
"For this reason, Fanny was isolated in the school, called a monster, and no one knew that the reason for the hypnotization was the power of stigmata caused by the sight of the eyes, they just understood that approaching Fanny would bring bad things, and in school, the delinquent teenagers in the school, began to bully Fanny because they didn't believe in this headless rumor, and then ......"
"The kid who led the group, after making eye contact with Fanny, ran to the roof of the school building and jumped off, killing him instantly."
Liang Xiao took a slight breath.
"At that time, they were all elementary school students, who would think so much, but even if the police intervened, there was no way to prove that the cause of the deceased's death was related to Fanny, but in the end, because of something, Fanny was abandoned by her parents and sent to an orphanage, where Teacher Annanbo also found Fanny who stayed alone in a dark corner from morning to night."
Turning her head, Nan Qi smiled slightly: "You understand now, right?" It's not that Fanny doesn't want to communicate with others in a normal way, she can't, because she doesn't want to cause any more tragedy easily, and for this reason, Fanny even closes her heart so that she doesn't have a grudge against anyone. ”
Listening to Nan Qi's story, Liang Xiao was silent for a long time, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm ...... It seems that these things should not be inquired about. ”
Nan Qi smiled generously: "It's okay, these are not secrets, and in fact, every spirit master in the association has an unbearable past." ”
"Huh? Do you have it too? ”
Nanqi smiled: "Then guess?" ”
