Chapter 129: Return
Trialist Xu Cheng successfully survived in the world of Curse and Grudge Trial for seven days, completed the trial task, and was rewarded with an intermediate meritorious service and 4,000 points.
Xu Cheng was suspended in the darkness, the voice of the source was still so monotonous and mechanical, he still had the scene he saw in the last second in his mind, Li Zhi was still happily embraced by a strange and beautiful female soul, and Li Zhi's voice seemed to be echoing in his ears.
Li Zhi...... The brains of this team... After all, he unexpectedly became the first team member to die in the world of trials so far.
Xu Cheng returned to the source space in silence, beside him were Ah Qin and Xiahou Min, who seemed to be ordinary, but he knew that one of the trial team had stayed in that world forever.
The healing light shining on Xu Cheng's body gradually converged, in fact, most of the people who came back alive this time were not seriously injured, because if Jia Coconut didn't make a move, once he did, then the result would only be a slight injury or death.
Xu Cheng moved his body, but Xu Hong, who had been waiting on the side, had tears in his eyes.
"You're finally back...... You're finally back alive..."Xu Hong choked and threw himself into Xu Cheng's arms, and a faint sobbing sound came from his arms.
On the side, Gao Feng's woman and Xiahou Min's sister Xiao Yue all looked at the person they were waiting for with red eyes.
"Don't be afraid... What are you crying about, didn't I promise you that you would come back alive? Xu Cheng held Xu Hong in his arms and gently stroked her back, which was trembling slightly from sobbing.
"We... We found out that Li Zhi's room had become an ownerless room, and my sister told me... That's because he died, she said that there had been this situation before, and every time it appeared, it meant that a trial team member had unfortunately died while performing a trial mission..."When he said this, Xu Hong's crying became more and more intense.
Seeing this, Xu Cheng didn't know how to persuade him, in this cold and hard source space like an iron plate, he seemed to be able to give Xu Hong anything, but at the same time, he couldn't give his lover the least stability.
The death of the trial team members and Xu Hong's pain turned into a silver needle, which pierced deep into his heart, bringing him long-lasting and sharp pain.
"Everyone is finally back, let go of everything first, let's rest for a while......" After finishing speaking, Xu Cheng hugged Xu Hong, who was sobbing softly, and returned to his room with a heavy heart.
Xu Cheng hadn't carefully washed his body for several days in the cursed world, so when he walked into the room, he told Xu Hong that he wanted to take a bath in the hot spring pool.
Xu Hong nodded in agreement, then turned around and went to the dressroom near the hot spring pool to prepare things like towels for Xu Cheng to take a bath.
Xu Cheng looked a little lost, he still clearly remembered that the moment he was taken away by Yuan, Li Zhi hugged the woman in his arms and looked at him with a complicated expression, from his expression, Xu Cheng could feel guilt, happiness and good wishes.
He slowly walked into the hot spring pool, and it was not until he slowly sat down that he subconsciously let out a comfortable moan, Xu Cheng carefully felt the heat transmitted into the inner texture of his body as the slightly hot hot spring water pressed against his skin.
But even so, Xu Cheng found that there was no sweat secretion on his forehead at all, thinking of this, Xu Cheng asked himself a question that he had never thought of, can he still be regarded as a human being like this?
......
Xu Cheng put his hands together, poured a pinch of hot spring water on his face, and closed his eyes tiredly.
It didn't take long for a pair of petite little hands to gently caress Xu Cheng's face, and comb the strands of hair hanging from his forehead to his head for him.
Xu Cheng grabbed this hand and rubbed it lightly with his cheek, he opened his eyes and saw Xu Hong, who was blushing, wearing a swimsuit, she carefully sat next to Xu Cheng, leaned on his arms, and was so quietly and silently by Xu Cheng's side, Xu Cheng hugged Xu Hong's shoulders and hugged her tightly, as if she was afraid that she would disappear into her arms in an instant.
She knew that she had just escaped from the tiger's mouth, physically and mentally exhausted, and she couldn't do anything, but she knew that she could accompany him wholeheartedly.
He knew that he couldn't give his own her a stable life, and he knew that there was no way to change all of this now, but he knew that the only thing he could do to make up for her heart a little bit was to return safely every time until he could finally take her out of here!
Xu Cheng can only feel a faint peace of mind when he is alone with Xu Hong, and he is fighting hard outside, like a god of war, but Xu Cheng himself understands that only here can he be considered complete.
But gradually, Xu Hong felt something unusual, she looked at Xu Cheng, but found that he was also embarrassed.
She was silent for a while, but in the next moment, she did Xu Cheng's body and kissed Xu Cheng's mouth affectionately.
Xu Cheng naturally did not refuse Xu Hong's rare initiative to kiss, he looked at Xu Hong's eyes, but saw that her eyes were red, and there were faint teardrops turning.
Xu Cheng's heart trembled, compared with the sweetness of the tip of his tongue, his heart overturned the five-flavor jar, and he couldn't help but elaborate on the taste, but he watched Xu Hong cry, and his heart was also distressed.
The hot spring pool was steaming, Xu Cheng hugged Xu Hong tightly, he felt as if he understood why Xu Hong did this, but when his mind turned, he felt that he didn't understand anything.
As the so-called mandarin ducks playing in the water by the pool, even the immortals in the sky should also be envious, the infinite beauty of the poolside is naturally unbearable to talk about in detail with others, but the beauty is panting lightly as if resentful, and the water waves are tumbling and undulating.
Xu Cheng's palm slowly stroked Xu Hong's back like mutton fat and white jade, and he held Xu Hong, reminiscing about the madness not long ago.
"Are you okay, why are you a little weird today?" Xu Cheng kissed Xu Hong's cheek and asked gently.
Xu Hong sighed, and said a little tiredly: "I'm fine, I just want to accompany you all the time..... Xu Cheng, we can go on like this forever, right? ”
In fact, even Xu Cheng himself can't answer the last question and affirm it, but how can he bear to let his lover be heartbroken and sad because of this?
Sometimes... Xu Cheng felt that he had to use white lies to keep himself and Xu Hong firmly going, in fact, a large part of the source of the pillar of faith that had supported him to survive the death was the woman who waited for him to come home day and night in the source space.
"Yes, of course we can go on forever, and one day in the future, when I am strong enough, I will take you back to Earth, meet our parents, and accompany them to live a simple and stable life." Xu Cheng's tone was firm, and he looked at the beauty in his arms.
Xu Hong heard Xu Cheng's promise, turned around, looked into his eyes, and said happily: "I know you won't lie to me, then we will say okay, you must take me back to see our parents in the future!" After speaking, she seemed to be relieved, lying in Xu Cheng's arms like a docile kitten, her face tightly pressed against his chest.
The two stayed quietly in bed until six o'clock, and it was almost time for dinner, Xu Cheng and Xu Hong got up and got dressed.
By the time Gao Feng's house arrived, most of the food had been served, and this time the dishes were still as rich and delicious as before, but the dishes during this banquet were still like the past, but the old scene was no longer the same.
Xu Cheng could clearly feel that everyone's mood was low, but Xiahou Min, who used to love to nibble on chicken legs, looked at the puff pastry chicken thighs close at hand this time and was indifferent, as if for him, this tangy fragrance did not exist at all.
Xu Cheng's arrival made the originally somewhat lifeless atmosphere more lively, like a catfish thrown into the fishing warehouse, which made the hearts of the originally depressed team members lively.
"The dishes my sister-in-law cooked today are still so good, I think it's almost the same, these dishes are definitely enough to eat!" Xu Cheng's expression was as usual, and his tone was a little brisk: "Okay, let's all eat, isn't it the greatest reward to be able to eat such a big meal after escaping death?" ”
"Although the wine and food are delicious, there is one less person..."Ah Qin said softly: "We ......"
Xu Cheng looked at Ah Qin and was silent for a while, then looked at the rest of the team members, looked down at the plate in front of him that was as white as ivory, and after a while, he chuckled lightly and said slowly: "I was actually going to tell you about Li Zhi, Li Zhi is there...... Killed... In fact, there is another hidden secret, which I figured out after I came back, and I will show you a few things and you will understand. As he spoke, Xu Cheng waved his hand and took out the laptop and a few yellowed newspapers left by Li Zhi from the small Sumeru ring.
Xu Cheng put his things on a small wooden table next to him, and after turning on the computer, pictures of newspaper clippings were opened on the computer desktop. These newspaper clippings are written about a bizarre and brutal murder case, and in almost every two of all the newspaper clippings, there will be a picture of a woman, although Xu Cheng has already guessed some facts, but when he sees this, he still can't help but sigh in his heart.
Li Zhi can beg for death presumably to find his fiancée, he said before, his fiancée is likely to enter the source space, now that he thinks about it, his fiancée may also have entered the source space, and by chance also entered the world of resentment and became a member of the army of resentful spirits after being killed by Gaco, and Li Zhi did not hesitate to ask for relics from himself in order to find his fiancée, and in order to ensure that he was able to enter the army of resentful spirits to find his fiancée while remaining sane.
Li Zhi is undoubtedly unlucky, but after Xu Cheng thought about it carefully, he felt that Li Zhi was lucky again, he spent more than three years looking for his lover, unbelievably crossed the space, and even desperately fell into a resentful spirit, and finally found his lover in the sea-like army of resentful spirits. Can it be done?
