Chapter 145: An Acquaintance Appears
Bai Shuangshuang was a little flustered now, and when she couldn't see Baal, she was so distracted that she had to find him!
She hurried out of the Prancing Horse Hotel and into the bustling street.
By this time, it was already dark, and it was already late at night. However, Lionheart City is still bright, and it is as lively as it is during the day.
Both sides of the street are lined with lanterns and lanterns of various colors, as if some kind of festival is being held, and it is dazzling and beautiful. The streets were bustling with people and noise.
Recently, a lot of adventurers have come here, and the atmosphere here has become extremely lively. And the lord of the city also added fuel to the fire, so he simply came to a garden tour to be lively and lively, and the city was full of colorful lights, it was simply a city that never sleeps!
Those lanterns are very interesting, some are birds flying, some are flying dragons breathing fire, some are brave and fighting demons, some are as brilliant as the starry sky, all kinds of colors reflect each other, the sun is beautiful and changeable, colorful, it is really a wonderful scene, those lights are more advanced and gorgeous than the neon lights in the real material world.
There are a lot of people around to admire and stop to watch, and now it doesn't look like night at all, but now it's even more lively than during the day, like a wonderful festival.
Bai Shuangshuang walked on the street, looking at the lively scene in front of him, can this be regarded as an unexpected gain?
But at this time, Bai Shuangshuang didn't have any heart to appreciate those things, no matter how lively it was now, she was not in the mood to play, there was nothing fun to be done by herself, she had to find Baal quickly, but she couldn't let him slip away.
She walked briskly on the street, looking left and right, but she couldn't see the guy's figure, "Damn! She kept repeating this sentence in her heart, and her face was full of displeasure.
Suddenly, a hand was placed on Bai Shuangshuang's shoulder, which startled her, and she immediately turned around, "Bastard! Where did you just go? She said it without hesitation, and at the same time looked behind her.
"Huh?" The man couldn't help but let out a puzzle, "Shuangshuang, I haven't seen you for a long time, why are you talking to me like this?" ”
"Ah!!h Bai Shuangshuang finally saw the face of the person behind her, which surprised her again, "Ah, why are you?" ”
The man was dressed in a gray mage robe, with long flowing hair, upright facial features, bright eyes, and an extraordinary temperament between his eyebrows. Although it was clear at first glance that he was a magician, his body was very burly.
This person is Bai Shuangshuang's cousin Bai Long, he and Bai Shuangshuang entered this interdimensional game world world together at that time, but they didn't expect such a change to happen, they have been isolated from the real world world for more than three years.
When Bai Long looked at Bai Shuangshuang, his eyes were full of emotion, and he said with a gentle smile: "Shuangshuang, of course it's me." I haven't seen each other for so long, I didn't expect you to be so naughty. ”
"Hey, cousin, I don't have time to talk to you, I have something important to do, I'll see you later." After Bai Shuangshuang finished speaking, he hurriedly prepared to leave.
"Don't go!" Bai Long quickly grabbed her wrist and hurriedly said, "Shuangshuang, are you going a little too far to treat your cousin like this?" I haven't seen you for a long time, and I really want to talk to you, but you're ready to just walk away, I'm very sad, do you know the way? ”
Bai Shuangshuang turned his head and pouted and said, "Cousin, I know that you love me very much, treat me very well, and I have a lot of things to say to you, but I really have something to do now, and I really can't delay any longer." ”
Bai Long glanced at her, "Is your matter important, or is your cousin and me important?" Besides, if you have any trouble, I can help you. If you don't have enough people, I still have a lot of friends, and I have them to help you, isn't that okay? ”
"My good cousin!" Bai Shuangshuang let out a long sigh, "You also know what I do, I really don't want to bring you badly, the things I do are not good, you must not get involved!" ”
Bai Long couldn't help but smile when he heard Bai Shuangshuang's words, he patted her pretty shoulder with a smile, and said, "You are really a ghost, you actually taught your cousin and me to come, it is really young and old." Although he said so, he was actually very happy.
Bai Shuangshuang sighed helplessly, "Hey, I'm really convinced of you, okay, okay!" I'll talk to you! ”
The white dragon and the white shuangshuang came to a secluded lake.
This is the lake in the city, the environment is extremely elegant, and the night is quietly covered here, full of hazy beauty.
The elegant and concise moonlight falls silently on the surface of the lake, the breeze blows slowly, the lake surface ripples layer by layer, and the moonlight is brilliant in the lake water, which is very pleasing to the eye.
It is not as bright as the streets, nor is it full of flowers, but it has a different taste, full of the silence and elegance of the night.
Bai Shuangshuang stood by the lake, sighing, she didn't have much to look at the scenery now, she was all thinking about how to find Baal.
Bai Long looked at her gently and asked, "Shuangshuang, I just met you on the street, and I saw you looking left and right, as if you were looking for someone." I stopped you, and then you said, 'Bastard! Where did you just go? Are you looking for the person you say you are? ”
Bai Shuangshuang nodded honestly, "Well, yes, I'm looking for that bastard!" ”
Bai Long smiled gently, "Shuangshuang, girls should be respectful to people, they can't open and close their mouths to be bastards, it's rude." ”
"He's a bastard in the first place, it's cheap to say he's a bastard, he's a bastard of bastards, cousin, if you know how bad he is, you'll be so angry that you want to kill him."
"Oh?" Bai Long was puzzled, "That person really annoys you so much?" ”
"Hmm!" Bai Shuangshuang nodded vigorously, "I really hate him to death, I caught him this time just to teach him a lesson and take away his treasure." My plan is to deceive him first, and then when he is most addicted, poison him, slaughter him, rob him of his things, and make him miserable! Hey! Bai Shuangshuang showed an expression like a villain, and then smiled heartily.
Seeing her expression, Bai Long couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, "Shuangshuang, you can't be like this, it's already very wrong for you to steal other people's things, why do you want to kill others?" Is the person you are talking about really taking the initiative to provoke you? ”
"That's it! I didn't mess with him, he provoked me, otherwise, with my trade rules, I wouldn't have killed him! I'm so angry, he's so hateful, so I'm going to teach him a lesson! Bai Shuangshuang clenched his fists and said viciously.
Bai Long couldn't help but look at Bai Shuangshuang with some concern, "Shuangshuang, since you hate that person so much, why don't you let me help you solve him, he bullies you, he just can't get along with me, and I have to teach that guy a good lesson." ”
Bai Shuangshuang was startled, and hurriedly said, "No, no, no!" I'll have to teach him a lesson, and you must not interfere, or I won't be able to vent." ”
"Okay," Bai Long nodded helplessly, "I really want to take care of your business, but since you say so, then I can only turn a blind eye, but if you have any requests, just open your mouth to me." ”
"Xie Lu Xie cousin, you are so good to me! Hee-hee! Bai Shuangshuang said with a smile.
At this time, on the other side of the lake, there is an elegant attic.
The natural landscape here is declining day by day, and the scenery is pleasant, even though it is night, but it is difficult to hide this.
The two-story building, the square stone columns, the round arches, the vine-covered walls, were unmistakably revealed in the silver moonlight.
The surface of the lake is calm, the breeze touches, and the moonlight waves are leisurely, creating a refreshing and pleasant atmosphere.
Next to the attic, by the lake, there is a neat countertop, and above it, there is a table of small wine and small dishes, and there are two people sitting on the side, a man and a woman.
The man was dressed in delicate bronze armor, with a red cloak behind him, and his figure was burly and straight, with a dignified appearance and a heroic appearance.
The woman was wearing a green dress, with beautiful black hair, hanging down behind her head like a waterfall, and her slender figure was set off by the green clothes to the fullest, showing her exquisite beauty. Her face glowed pale white like a holy light in the moonlight, and her countenance was very graceful. Her expression was faint, and there was a little sadness in her beautiful eyes.
She stared intently at the calm surface of the lake, silent.
The man broke the silence and said, "It's been so long, are you still blaming yourself?" ”
As soon as his voice came to an end, the gloom on the woman's face deepened, she sighed secretly, and said sadly: "I have killed so many people, how can I not blame myself? ”
"However, those people were not killed by you at all, their sacrifices have nothing to do with you, they are all Balkan, why do you have to blame yourself for those non-existent things?"
"I didn't kill Beren, but Beren died because of me, and I really can't escape the blame for the vain death of those innocent people." The woman's face was even more melancholy, with thin pink lips trembling slightly, like the flooding of the lake, faintly cold.
Seeing that the woman was even more sad, the man realized his mistake. His exoneration of her undoubtedly made her more worried, and the man whispered apologetically and blamelessly: "Gillian, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have mentioned these things, the past is unbearable, you better forget the past as soon as possible and start anew." ”
The woman smiled bitterly, "Leo, how do you tell me to easily forget that purgatory-like scene on earth, I think I will live in repentance for the rest of my life." ”
"Gillian, you—" Leo looked at Gillian in surprise, "You don't—" Before he could finish his sentence, Gillian reached out and interrupted him.
"Leo, I don't need to say any more, I know you're doing it for my good, but I really can't forget those things. Now, can you let me be quiet for a while? ”
Leo nodded helplessly and said: "Well, don't think too much, look away, look down, the past is gone, don't stick to the past, remember yesterday, live today, for tomorrow, the future should be valued, you, take a good rest, just look for me if you have anything." ”
After he finished speaking, he affectionately forgot about Gillian's snow-white face, and then turned away gloomily.
And Gillian thought about what Leo had said, "Remember yesterday, live today, for tomorrow," and she felt that this was true, but it was not for her.
A wry smile appeared on his thin lips, and his gaze, which was as desolate as autumn water, gradually moved from the surface of the lake to the night sky, above the bright moon.
"Maybe I should go to the streets, the bustling streets, maybe it can relieve some of my sorrows, for tomorrow, and live today, I have to cheer up." With this in mind, Gillian stood up and left the balcony in a flutter.
