Skaha has lived in the Shadow Country of Ulster all her life, and spends most of her time on the lookout for her sister Uev, who spends her days thinking about trouble.

The only adopted daughter, Ushaha, was abducted by his most promising disciple Cúchulainn, and the series of tragedies that followed Cúthalyn had long been detected by Skaha's clairvoyance.

With the end of the Kamidai, the immortal Skaha was catapulted to the outer world along with the Shadow Country, never to be in contact with the living again.

Surrounded by the ghosts of the Shadow Country, Skaha loses his sense of being a human in the tedious life of the day, and begins to pursue the peace of death.

Due to Lu Xiao's unexpected appearance on the outside of the world, Skaha experienced the joy of life for a long time, and she agreed to the drive of inhibition for the first time, just to return to the human world to feel the warmth of the living again.

Lu Xiao didn't see any ambiguity in Skaha's beautiful crimson eyes, he simply let go, closed his eyes and enjoyed the rare knee pillow service.

Under Skaha's unfamiliar comfort, Lu Xiao's breathing rhythm gradually returned to normal.

The sweat that ran from his forehead seeped down his cheeks into the tights of Skaha's legs, merging with the sweat of Skaha himself, soaking a large sheet of translucent fabric.

Skaha's tights are not airtight, except for special leather armor to protect the vital parts of the body, most of the fabric of the tights is translucent, which looks quite colorful.

"Skaha, are you really going to find Wang Hassan to end your life?"

Skaha looked up at the Temple of the Evening Bell at the top of the hill, and there was a rare hint of hesitation in her tone when she spoke about the subject.

"Yes, I have this plan, but I haven't made up my mind yet."

Lu Xiao opened his eyes and saw a flash of confusion in Skaha's eyes.

"You've rediscovered the joy of life, there's no need to continue chasing death, right?"

"Now you still have the power to act autonomously, once you become a heroic spirit, the inhibition will control you even stronger, and in most cases you can only be driven by those two black-hearted bosses."

"Well, that's where I'm worried."

Skaha sighed softly: "Once you become a Heroic Spirit after death, you will be bound by inhibition and Valhalla, and it will not be so easy to act freely, and it is ......"

Skaha moved his gaze down and met Lu Xiao's dark eyes: "Recently, I've been thinking about a question, if a person completes her lifelong obsession, what can be left in her soul?" ”

Lu Xiao couldn't answer Skaha's question, the difficulty of this question was too high, and it was not something he could answer at will now.

People will set countless goals in stages in their lives, but most people will set a final expectation, or dream, for themselves.

Since it is called a dream, this goal is naturally difficult to achieve.

Most people will not be able to achieve the dreams they set for themselves when they were young, and they will even gradually forget their original intentions under the polish of society.

Skaha's problem goes further, her goal of pursuing death is not a dream, but an obsession that is difficult to achieve.

For example, a person who has been preparing for revenge all his life will lose his life goal the moment he completes his obsession with revenge, and his heart will become empty, not knowing where to step next.

Lu Xiao's biggest goal now is to find out the big guy behind the system, and ask him clearly why he wants to give himself a time and space travel system and issue tasks to let him travel between various dimensions and worlds.

There is still no hope of achieving this goal, and even the basic clues have not been grasped.

Without relevant experience and perception, he naturally had no way to answer Skaha's question.

However, if I haven't eaten pork, I've at least seen a pig walking, Lu Xiao and Skaha looked at each other for a while, and sorted out the language according to what they had watched in the past and the film and television dramas.

"I haven't experienced it firsthand, and I can't give first-hand advice on your problem."

"But I've seen two death-seeking immortals leave in front of me, and I've seen the final end of those who have achieved their obsessions."

Lu Xiao solemnly looked at Skaha's eyes and said: "Once the obsession is achieved, your spirit and soul will become extremely empty for a period of time, and you have repeatedly asked yourself why you have this obsession, and whether it is worth fighting for it all your long life." ”

"People who can't get through this hurdle end up choosing to self-destruct and actively flee from this difficult question."

Lu Xiao turned his gaze to look at the Evening Bell Temple: "What about you?" Skaha, Queen of the Shadow Nation. ”

"Have you already thought about the next step after your obsession is achieved, and have you thought about whether the pursuit of death is really worth it?"

After gradually recovering his strength, Lu Xiao broke away from Skaha's knee pillow and half-sat on the ground to eye level with Skaha.

"I hope you can think about the plan after the obsession is achieved before making the final choice, if you still decide to end your long life after weighing all the gains and losses, I won't ......"

"Hmm!"

Skaha suddenly interrupted Lu Xiao's Chicken Soup for the Soul, a look of displeasure appeared on his beautiful cold face, and he reached out and grabbed both sides of Lu Xiao's cheeks and pulled them out.

"Whose life you say is long? Are you thinking I'm old? ”

Lu Xiao's eyes widened with astonishment, "Can this be turned to the old problem by you?!" I'm ...... so much'

Although Lu Xiao was very speechless in her heart, thanks to Skaha's sensitivity to age, the heavy atmosphere that had originally shrouded the two of them dissipated a lot.

After getting rid of Skaha's bullying, Lu Xiao waved his hand weakly: "...... Forget it, it's rare to try to persuade you to think about it carefully, but the topic has been forcibly reversed in a strange direction, and I don't bother to care. ”

At this time, the bonfire party in Dongzhi Village had begun, Lu Xiao stood up and walked towards the village, waving goodbye to Skaha, who was still sitting on the ground.

"I'll go and see how the banquet goes, and you can think about it yourself."

"From a personal point of view, I don't recommend that you give up life, the beauty of life still has to be lived to fully appreciate it."

Silently watching Lu Xiao disappear from sight at an accelerated pace, a gentle smile flashed on Skaha's face, but soon she returned to her usual cold expression.

"How to choose between life and death?"

……

On the way back to the village, Lu Xiao happened to use clairvoyance to see the traces of Bedwell and Matthew, who were also hiding behind the village far away from the banquet, talking in a whisper.

There were still some tears on Bedwell's face, and it seemed that he had secretly cried somewhere, and Matthew had happened to meet Bedwell who was hiding to release the pressure.

Probably guessed the conversation between the two people, Lu Xiao didn't come forward to disturb them, and returned to the lively Dongzhi Village lightly.

In the square in the center of the village, Omoto and Arash stripped off their shirts and became entangled, their equally sturdy bodies colliding with each other and making a "popping" sound, as if they were playing wrestling, and the nearby villagers shouted and cheered for the two of them.

Lu Xiao was a little speechless and walked to the side of the curse wrist and asked, "There should be no bar in the village?" What's going on with these two? ”

The villages of the mountain people are not even in a problem with the food supply, and of course there will be no surplus grain to make wine.

"Haha~"

The curse wrist also let go of his previous seriousness during the banquet, and let out a hearty laugh as he watched the two wrestle.

"Arash wants to cheer up the banquet, and it just so happens that His Excellency Omoto Tai also has this idea, and after some discussion, he decided to use wrestling to provoke the atmosphere of the banquet, you see, the effect is very good, right?"

Aggressiveness is the nature of human beings, and wrestling, as a hand-to-hand combat activity that has been widely spread among various ethnic groups since ancient times, has attracted attention in various countries that lacked entertainment activities in ancient times.

Moreover, the two wrestlers are both heroic souls who have left glorious deeds in the history of mankind, and the volume of cheers from the villagers can roughly show the spectacle of this sparring wrestling.

Lu Xiao shook his head and smiled: "That's right, they should have measure, rare relaxation time, let's cheer honestly." ”
