"Despicable!" Qin Xiaoyu scolded fiercely, but she scolded Naiyin. "How can you belittle humans so much!? And how could I have listened to your nonsense for so long? Tell you! I won't believe you a word! ”

"I don't believe it either!" Unexpectedly, Naine said something like this. "I grew up with human playmates, and although they like to be competitive, they are just as innocent and caring as my other playmates."

"Then what do you mean by saying so many bad things about the forerunners?!" Qin Xiaoyu forked the tunnel. "Once I find them, your lies will be exposed immediately!"

"You'll find them, but listen to my story first!" Nayin is slow and straightforward. "The deaths of my father and the other elders have made the rest of the Busen people angry. With the help of many beasts of prey, they launched an assault on human territory, vowing to reclaim their homeland occupied by humans and drive them out of Sirte. ”

Li Ling and Qin Xiaoyu's hearts lifted again. Instead, worry about the fate of the forerunners.

"At first, the Busen were overwhelmed, and soon attacked the towns that the humans were constantly building. But then, something terrible happened. Nayin breathed a sigh of relief before continuing: "The Busen people who rushed to the front clutched their heads and howled in pain as if they were crazy, and the other Busen people retreated in a hurry as if they were frightened, and they didn't even have time to take their wounded companions with them. ”

"Could it be that humans have used a special attack?!" Li Ling asked. I thought it could be something like sonar or nuclear radiation, maybe it was the equipment on the human spacecraft.

"We think so too! But after that, those weird things happen not only on the battlefield, but everywhere, at any time. Gradually, some of the Busen people went to extremes, constantly inciting and even forcing people to fight against humans to reclaim our homeland. A battle zone has been formed between the territory of the humans and the Busen people, and many humans or Busen people go to fight and die every day! And most of them are agitating and cheering in the back! ”

"In the end, who won?!"

"Scary place is here! Neither side won nor lost. Just simple killing, and even having fun with it! Soon, most of the Busen people realized the madness and viciousness of the battle, and they no longer wanted to obey the few who were keen to fight, and began to sneak into more remote corners. Thankfully, the world was big enough that the Busen people soon scattered to all corners of the world. Go and live the life you want. Maybe it's a wandering like me, or maybe it's a group of three or five who live in seclusion. ”

"And now? Do you know anything about the forerunners? Li Ling was sympathetic to Naiyin's situation, but he was obviously more concerned about the fate of the Forerunners.

"I know a little bit, and I even know a little bit about it, because I just met a batman leader a few days ago, and his people are in the midst of a battle with your kind."

"The Precursor and the Batman are at war?!" Qin Xiaoyu said in surprise.

"Actually, the war has been going on for many years. It's still hot! ”

"Why hasn't it been decided for so many years?! The number of Forerunners is not large, can they come back from the dead? Li Ling asked.

"That's what I used to wonder. But now, I think I already have the answer! ”

Li Ling subconsciously leaned forward, he knew that the truth of the world of Sirte might be in Nayin's next sentence.

"The war between mankind and other races will never end! Because ......" Nai Yin also leaned forward, as if he only wanted to tell Li Ling alone. "Because the leaders of both sides of the war know that they have to grasp a yardstick, and they are not fighting for victory, nor are they fighting for killing! It's ......"

Li Ling saw that Naiyin's eyes, which had been lowering, suddenly opened, and they also became extremely bright, and a small electric pattern flashed from its eyes.

Immediately after, Li Ling's ears exploded. He glanced back, the thunderclouds in the sky were tumbling, and the lightning kept chopping down, as if trying to prevent Li Ling from hearing the secret.

"What the hell is it for?!" The answer was right in front of him, and Li Ling didn't care about anything else, and shouted and asked in the wind and thunder.

Nai Yin also shouted loudly, so as to drown out the rolling thunder and let Li Ling hear it clearly: "The negative emotions brought about by the war have made those people crazy, in order to satisfy their deformed desires, in order to taste the passion, glory, and even pain, suffering, and all kinds of emotions brought by the war, they fight for the war!" Their souls have been lost, lost in our world, Sirte! So, abandon your companions, they are hopeless, and in human terms, they will go to hell sooner or later. ”

"Bastard! Sirte is not a beast like you! You are also not qualified to make irresponsible remarks about any human being! Nayin's cursed words and the suppressed thunderclouds behind him made Li Ling's emotions get out of control in an instant, and he cursed loudly.

"Stay calm, young man!" Nain's tone finally became aggressive. "If you can't even control your emotions, sooner or later you'll end up in the same fate as them!"

Qin Xiaoyu was stunned by Li Ling and Naiyin's sudden anger, she always felt that Li Ling believed Naiyin's words, but she didn't expect him to just hide his emotions.

"After all, he understands his position and knows that there is another reason for intimacy!" Qin Xiaoyu thought to himself.

Li Ling forced himself to calm down and looked at Nai Yin contemptuously: "You can really pull it, big rabbit." In our place, in my homeland, you are not even qualified to be a pet, but here you are clamoring for humanity to go to hell! You have to understand your status! ”

"I understand, Li Ling! I just wanted to help you. This is not your hometown. I don't think you've heard of the phrase that has been circulating on Sirte lately, in human terms, ......" Naine paused and said in a more mysterious, lower tone: "The devil stares at your soul, and when it matures, it swallows it in one gulp!" ”

"It's a curse! You vicious fellow! Qin Xiaoyu scolded angrily.

Stronger lightning tore through the sky, and the day reappeared in an instant, only to be swallowed up by darkness in an instant. Li Ling suddenly remembered the strange scene after the thundercloud last time - the faces of those supporters were distorted like ghosts.

"Could it be that those strange shadows are the devil lurking around them? Or is it just the ugly souls of those people?! I couldn't think clearly, Li Ling shook his head vigorously, trying to crush these thoughts in his mind, but found that they had taken root.

Nayin didn't care about Qin Xiaoyu's scolding, she only looked at Li Ling, who was struggling, and said goodbye: "We have discussed enough about the problem just now, you better relax and take a rest, if you have any questions, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

……

Naine is gone, its steps are light, and its back looks elegant, not at all like an old animal.

For a moment, Li Ling felt that Nayin was dying, or rather, its heart was dead. The ordeal made it lose the courage to resist, and it had to use sensational rhetoric to excuse its weakness.

No! At least - it still has the courage to live! Have the courage to open those heavy memories and tell your story to yourself and Qin Xiaoyu, two outliers who are not even strangers.

What exactly is it trying to say? So close to itself in every possible way, to tell so many secrets hidden in its heart. What the hell is its purpose?!

Li Ling was eager to know the answer. He felt hot all over his body, and the sweat continued to seep out of his forehead, connecting into dots and strings, and dripping on the ground.

The thunderclouds disappeared imperceptibly, and the blazing sun once again filled the entire sky and land.

Unlike the radiant fullness of the day, the sun now looks a little pale, and it seems that it can no longer fill this empty world—not to mention those dark corners and gradually cold hearts.

Qin Xiaoyu took Li Ling back to the makeshift hut and wiped the sweat on his forehead for him, and Li Ling recovered from his state of distraction.

The two of them simply ate some dry food and began to think seriously about what Nain said and what it meant.

It wasn't until the sun was setting in the west that Li Ling suddenly opened his mouth and said something that made Qin Xiaoyu tremble: "I have an intuition that Naiyin is not lying. ”

"You mean...... The souls of those forerunners were controlled by the demons of this world?! Qin Xiaoyu asked in a subtle voice squeezed out of his lips.

Li Ling didn't nod, nor did he shake his head, he couldn't speak.

"But do people really have souls?!" Qin Xiaoyu asked, thinking that he had been influenced by Marx's thoughts.

"Of course there is, otherwise what's the difference between a man and a walking dead?" Li Ling nodded, and then said in a deeper voice: "I watched a TV show when I was a child, saying that there is a ghost society in the United States, which verifies that ghosts are real through magnetic fields. Several real-life examples are also given in the show. One of them sticks in my mind. It is said that after a U.S. soldier died in World War II, he was reluctant to give up his wife and daughter, and his soul ran back to his hometown from the battlefield. The soul is invisible, but his shadow always appears on the walls and corridors of the house from time to time. Most of the time it looks like an old portrait with yellow hair on wallpaper, smiling at his wife and children. ”

Qin Xiaoyu was frightened and leaned towards Li Ling's body, wanting to feel some warm breath.

"I just don't think Naine is lying, but I don't agree with its conjecture and xenophobia!" Li Ling comforted. "I insist that seeing is believing."

"So what are we going to do? Do you want to stay here? ”

"Yes, of course!" Li Ling said. "Since Naine has said so much, it must have a purpose. Regardless of whether the forerunners are lost or not, listen to the advice of the big rabbit, and there will be nothing wrong! ”

"Hmm." Qin Xiaoyu nodded. "Then think about tomorrow. Hopefully, we will be able to get the answers we want before a big change happens to the supporters. ”
