Chapter 24: Where It All Began
Talos quickly shielded Rin, but Seven had already run towards where Eyre was.
Elle smiled and hugged it with open arms, "Ah Qi, don't let the others separate us......"
The girl's voice sounded so soft and wonderful. But like the song of the siren, it lingered in my ears for a long time.
Ah Qi's eyes gradually lost their original brilliance, gray and godless.
The girl touched its head, like a small animal's obedient hair, "You know what to do, right?" ”
Ah Qi in his arms nodded as if he had lost his soul.
"Go, get rid of them, get rid of everyone who wants to destroy us." The girl's voice was like a whisper in her ear, surrounded by a wisp of smoke, burrowing into her ears.
And as soon as the words fell, I saw Ah Qi's gaze suddenly become ruthless, and he just repeated, "No one can separate us......
The flames that had been extinguished were rekindled, and Talos sprang out, the long knife dancing nimbly in his hand, the blade so sharp that it was only a cold blue-gray glimmer that pierced through the flames.
Because of Rin Rin's orders, he was not too cruel to Ah Qi.
It's just that in Talos's heart, he doesn't have a good impression of this short boy.
Let's put it aside and let Rin get hurt and put herself in danger. Rin Rin's excessive attention and concern for this Ah Qi alone was enough to make some small bubbles of displeasure rise in Talos's heart inexplicably.
What did Rin fancy about it?
Do you like its short stature, or do you like its cunning?
Countless thoughts, almost unrealistic, flashed through Talos's mind at this moment.
But although his thoughts had already flown to the sky, the long knife in his hand did not suffer, and he was pressing forward step by step, almost putting Ah Qi in a dilemma.
As long as he wasn't stupid, Talos, as an armed puppet, was far superior to any protector-type contract spirit.
"Still won't give up?" Talos said in a cold voice, looking at Ah Qi, who had been forced back to the wall by himself, and a long knife was pointed directly in front of it.
I thought it had no way to escape, but I didn't expect that Ah Qi seemed to be completely unafraid of life and death, and rushed towards Talos with a straight body!
Talos hadn't expected it to make such a move, but it was too late to retract the long knife.
In an instant, the long knife pierced through Ah Qi's arm.
The empty eyes still didn't have any brilliance, just staring at Talos blankly. I couldn't even feel the pain of my arm being penetrated.
Talos jerked his hand quickly, trying to retract the knife. But Ah Qi approached quickly with the blade, hugged Talos's body tightly with both hands, and muttered, "I won't, I'm disappointing Eyrey......"
A ball of flame erupted and exploded at the closest point where the two were almost face to face!
"Talos!"
Rin ran over with a shout, her heart almost hanging in her throat, but the boiling flames forced her back.
Before the flames had dispersed, a figure had come out of the flames.
The blurred figure gradually became clearer, and when the person who came really had a clear face, Rin Rin found that Talos's clothes had been burned and he was half-naked at the moment. And in his hand, he is carrying the culprit, Ah Qi.
Talos threw Ah Qi on the ground and patted the burnt black dust on his body, his breathing was a little disordered, but it was not very obvious.
"We can't stay here any longer, the whole space here was created by that tree absorbing spiritual power." As he spoke, he glanced back at the big tree, and the girl who was still shining with a faint light, but as light as a piece of paper, Elle.
Rin nodded, in fact, she also felt that this place was not quite right.
Because her spiritual power is depleted too quickly here.
Originally, I thought it was because my physical strength was not enough, but my spiritual power was not strong.
Now that Talos said it, it was determined that it was not her unilateral consumption and delusion.
Talos picked Rin up and was about to leave, but he felt the weight on his hands sink a lot.
Looking down, I saw that Ah Qi didn't know when, one hand was firmly grasping the corner of his clothes and refused to let go.
The mouth was still repeating intermittently, "No, you can't ......"
Obviously, this guy hasn't really come to his senses yet, but subconsciously wants to fulfill his belief that he wants to get rid of Rin and Talos.
It's just that the body has reached its limit.
Seeing this situation, Talos was a little angry in his heart.
What does this dwarf winter melon want to do, the dove occupies the magpie's nest? got into trouble again and again, and he couldn't rely on his master.
Just as he was about to shake it off and leave, he saw Rin suddenly pull Raa Qi's already weak arm, and a pair of eyes stared straight at its back.
Behind Ah Qi, several small green shoots were taking root and growing on its back. Because it is too small and transparent, it is difficult for people to notice.
The shoots were connected to a thin tube, and there was something faintly transporting from that tube to the big tree in the depths.
Rin's face suddenly became a little ugly, and there was even a hint of anger.
At this moment, she had little spiritual power left, but she still condensed a short knife in her palm.
The knife didn't last long, but it was enough for her to make a quick decision, cutting off the brittle branches and buds on Ah Qi's back, which were absorbing the thin threads of its life.
The translucent tubes were cut off, and the buds dried up in an instant.
But everything didn't end there, I saw that the line was like a runaway water pipe, writhing wildly in mid-air, and releasing scenes like the one hundred and eight layers of candle flames......
That is, Ah Qi's memory.
It is also the memory left by it and the girl named Elle in this void space.
In the fast-moving picture, there is a white snowfield.
The snow piled up thickly on the ground and on the branches, and from time to time it smashed off a piece with a soft 'kuo' sound.
……
Eyrey's small body walked through the snow in the mountains and forests, and he didn't know what he stepped on, which was softer and thicker than the snow.
She crouched down, her eyes scavenging with curiosity, as if digging for some treasure.
Until the body of a little teenager emerges from the snow.
But no matter how petite the boy is, he still has some weight after all. Ai Lei was a little panicked for a while, but he also knew that it was important to save people, so he immediately grabbed the tail behind the young man and pulled him out.
At last he dragged the man out of the snow pit, but Elle sat down on the ground and gasped for breath as if he had pulled out a large radish.
She slapped the snow off the boy's body, "Are you still alive, wake up." ”
Airey patted it, and now there was time to see what it looked like.
The boy in front of him looked about his own age, but the difference was that he had two soft ears on top of his head.
Yes, Wives?
Ai Lei was suddenly a little nervous, he was just a little girl with no spiritual power, and he ran to the mountain alone just to pick some mountain fruits, and by the way, he was greedy to relieve his boredom.
How did I come across such a 'thing'?
She got up and wanted to go first, but when she looked at the man lying on the snow, his immature face did not look dangerous.
Her eyebrows were tightly locked, and her breath was still there, how could she bear to leave it alone.
Thinking about it, I suddenly softened my heart.
By the time he brought it home, Eyre was already sweating from exhaustion.
She set the little thing in place and just watched it quietly. In the end, he couldn't hold back, and reached out and pinched the pair of soft ears. When even a face is healed of satisfaction.
When the boy woke up, it was the next day.
It sat up suddenly, and its forehead was covered with fine sweat. The heart beats extremely fast, and it is difficult to calm down for a while. It remembered, but it felt like a chilling nightmare.
Looking around, I was in a completely unfamiliar place, a girl sleeping quietly on the sofa.
Her long hair hung down her cheeks, and the moonlight reflected on her, showing a softness that was different from that of her age.
Yourself, this was saved by her?
In the days that followed, as they got along for a long time, Ah Qi and Ai Lei became more and more acquainted.
Knowing that Elle lived alone in this winter vine town, he came once every two or three days, and gradually came every day. In the end, he simply stayed cheeky.
Elle is playful, and he is with her, two children who seem to be the same age, and they can always get along well.
And Elle will also lose his temper, there will be troubles, and there will be a small temperament that girls have. Ah Qi doesn't care about these things, there is nothing that can't be solved by touching her ears.
If there is, then add a tail.
But, Elle is a person after all, a very ordinary person. Not only will she have those little emotions, but she will also have the same illness......
Airey has no relatives, and naturally he will not have any savings at a young age.
On top of that, she doesn't have spiritual powers yet.
Elle's illness is getting worse and worse, and the doctor in the town says that she is because she has been exposed to it for a long time, and she has stored too much breath of other spirits, and her body can not bear it.
…… Is the spirit talking about itself?
Ah Qi was stunned, although it was not a powerful demon beast itself, it had just lived for a long time.
But I have to admit that although it still looks like a teenager, it has survived for a long time. It's been so long that even among the demons, it's still young, and for ordinary people, it's already a long time coming.
It couldn't control its spiritual power not to intrude on others, so it unknowingly overloaded Eyre's body.
Ah Qi blamed himself, but he also knew that he couldn't change it.
But this Winter Man Town is just a small and almost inconspicuous place. The people here are either ordinary people who have no spiritual power, or people whose spiritual power is so weak that they can't be called 'demon messengers'.
The townspeople, fearing that they would provoke strange spirits and cause unnecessary trouble and disaster, found some magic envoys outside and tried to drive Eyre out of town.
Ah Qi is not a powerful character in the first place, and he is even more difficult to defeat.
It didn't dare to go back after being injured several times, for fear of being discovered by Airey. The second is that it can no longer stay with Eylay.
As long as it doesn't come closer, maybe Eyrey's life can continue.
But even though Eyre was sluggish, he was vaguely aware of something. And one day, when I wanted to go out to breathe, I met the residents of the town.
When the residents saw her, they avoided her, and several of them relented and said harsh words to drive her away.
And when Ah Qi found her, she was sitting alone in the forest after the festival. This is where they first met, and where it all began.
That paleness let Ah Qi know that the girl in front of him was about to come to an end.
When Elle saw it coming, he smiled as if nothing happened, and said softly in his voice, "Ah Qi, I have something I want to ask you for......"
