73. Heart
Chu Ci lay on the ground in a daze. His head tilted slightly, and when he saw the crimson flowers swaying in the wind next to him, he got up suddenly.
"This! ......" he looked around and saw that there were only two shades here, and he felt very depressed inside, "where the hell is this?" ”
Chu Ci got up, rubbed his sore arms and dull head: "What the hell is he doing?" Why is it so dark?! ”
He felt like he was having trouble breathing, and he was about to breathe. For a long time, he leaned against the trunk of the tree and lowered his eyes: "What...... It turns out that I am so depressed. ”
Chu Ci sighed, then straightened his body, touched the pitch-black tree with his hand, and said lightly: "Do what you want, what is still tangled." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the black in the tree faded in an instant, returning to its previous pure and dazzling hue.
Chu Ci's eyes lit up: "I really didn't expect it~ Tut-tut......"
As the room grew brighter and brighter, so did his mood.
Chu Ci sat on the ground, looked at the gorgeous flowers beside him, smiled, and then took out the contact stone.
"Uncle Qin Li!" Chu Ci said abruptly to the projected image of Qin Li.
Qin Li was slightly stunned, and his originally frowning brows quickly loosened: "Chu Ci? ”
Chu Ci nodded and said with a smile: "It's been a long time~"
Qin Li was stunned: "Didn't we just meet before?" ”
"......" Chu Ci's eyes fluttered, scratching his face, "I forgot ......"
Qin Li glanced at him resentfully, and then sighed: "It's okay. As long as you're okay. ”
Chu Ci nodded. Then he saw a tall beauty walk in.
"Boss Qin, the Sunset Squad has returned. They rescued three people and came back. Do you think you need to accept them? Also, the Spirit Leader said he wanted to make a peace pact with you. ”
Qin Li frowned and glanced at the woman dissatisfied. The woman smiled slightly, then was slightly stunned, and finally saw the image of Chu Ci's long hair, so she walked over with long legs: "Yo Yo Yo ~ I didn't expect you to have plans to hide Jiao in the golden house, boss?" Tut-tut, look at this little beauty~"
Qin Li was helpless: "Ji Wu, why did you come here to play role-playing again?" Wouldn't it be nice to stay in Maggie and be a leader? ”
The woman pursed her lips and leaned on him as if she was weak and boneless: "It's not good~ People just like to stay by your side~"
Qin Li trembled all over, flashed to the side as if taking refuge, and then all of Chu Ci's images appeared in front of her.
Ji Wumei's eyes narrowed slightly: "Tsk, what a little beauty?" ”
Qin Li raised his forehead and sighed: "He is a man......"
"I know." Ji Wu wrapped her fingers around her hair, "But I'm still ......"
Qin Li's face was expressionless: "He is my younger brother." It is also the future mascot of Chuxin. ”
Ji Wu got up abruptly and patted Qin Li on the shoulder arrogantly: "Oh, I said it earlier!" Look at what worries me! However, he is indeed very suitable to be a little devil. ”
Qin Li was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Chu Ci.
Silver-haired red eyes, angelic face, cold temperament, and cute expression......
Qin Li nodded: "It's quite suitable...... But how do I always feel that something is not right? ”
Ji Wu was puzzled and looked at Chu Ci. Her chin curled: "Something is wrong......
"Oops! Whatever~ That's pretty much it. Ji Wu said with a smile.
Qin Li's head was full of black lines: "Your old heart is really ......"
Ji Wu leaned over and picked up Qin Li's chin, and then blew in his ear: "If you don't have a big heart, how can you chase you?" ~Hehehehe~"
"Ahem...... Qin Li's face was slightly red, and then he straightened his face and said seriously, "Chu Ci, where are you now?" It doesn't look like a hegemon. ”
Chu Ci looked at his blushing face, feeling that there was no deterrent at all, but he still looked back behind him and shook his head: "I don't know either." I woke up early in the morning and showed up here. ”
Qin Li frowned, finally relieved, and guessed in horror: "You won't be abducted, right?!" ”
Chu Ci was full of black lines, got up and walked a few steps: "I'm fine, and there is no one else here." As he spoke, he lifted the liaison stone and spun around to show him what was going on.
Qin Li looked stunned, and asked Ji Wu in confusion: "Is there such a place in this world?" ”
Ji Wu frowned, and then shook his head: "No." I haven't seen it anyway. ”
Qin Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly paused: "Chu Ci, have you ever found an exit?" ”
Chu Ci was slightly stunned: "No." As soon as I woke up, I felt comfortable and just wanted to be alone. ”
Qin Li and Ji Wu frowned together. They looked solemn: "This is not going to work. Now you go and find the exit and see if you can get out. ”
Chu Ci frowned, but still didn't say anything, and began to walk around the forest with steps.
"Kiln ......"
Chu Ci walked forward, holding the liaison stone in his hand, and let him only see the scene in front of him. He lowered his eyes and saw the mandala hua next to his leg transform into a manju sawa.
He was silent, like a walking corpse.
"Huh?!" Qin Li was shocked. He saw a large black door in front of him, and on top of it was a chain with no lock......
Chu Ci raised his head, his eyes lit up slightly when he saw this situation, and the mandala Hua behind him changed suddenly, and then spread out with a faster trend, and even, some grass tips and leaves were dyed black.
"Chu Ci, look for and see if there is any locked place." Qin Li's expression was grim, he only had this door in his eyes, and he didn't notice the change in the scene in the space.
Chu Ci's face was expressionless, and then he reached out and grabbed the chain.
"Whew!"
As soon as his fingers touched the chain, a black lightning bolt burst out from the chain, which suddenly electrocuted his hand.
"Chu Ci!" Qin Li was shocked and worried.
"It's fine." Chu Ci frowned and shook his head, "It seems that you can't get out now." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, some sharp thorns burst out of the ground under his feet, blocking the path between him and the gate.
Qin Li's expression was solemn, and he scolded angrily: "Who did this horse?!" Why are you locked up here?! ”
Chu Ci lowered his head: "Uncle Qin Li, let me think of a way by myself." You go get busy first. ”
Qin Li was speechless, staring at him for a long time before sighing slightly: "Okay." Be careful yourself. ”
Chu Ci nodded, and then cut off contact.
He stared blankly at the contact stone where the light disappeared, and then slowly squatted down and sat next to the thorn bush, his eyes empty: "Why don't you want to go out?" ”
"Because that's what you think."
Chu Ci raised his head and looked indifferently at the person who appeared in front of him.
"Fate, it's my time."
Fate looked down on him: "That's the rule in the outside world." It's a space for thinking. ”
Chu Ci was silent, and then hugged his knees: "What are you doing here?" ”
Fate crouched down, and the bright golden moo stared at him: "Come and become one with you." ”
"Why ......" Chu Ci lowered his eyes.
Fate was expressionless: "Because we are the same people, but we are separated for some reason." ”
Chu Ci buried his head: "If it is split, it means that there is no need." ”
Fate chuckled: "Then why do we have the same idea?" If it's a strip, all that's left should be optimism. But look at you now......"
Chu Cipi smiled and didn't smile: "What's wrong with me?" I'm still having fun. ”
Fate was silent, just looking at him.
"You don't want to open that door." Fate is light.
Chu Ci stiffened.
"You don't want to be with anyone anymore. Even if that person trusts you completely. Fate said indifferently.
"Hmm." Chu Ci was depressed, "Because I'm tired, I don't want to pretend, it's too hypocritical." ”
Fate nodded: "Then kill it." You don't have to worry about anything else, you can do whatever you want. ”
Chu Ci looked at him complicatedly, and then sneered: "Didn't you swear to the death to prevent others from harming the things you cherish?" Why are you trying to persuade me to destroy it now? ”
Fate was silent, and the corners of his mouth hooked: "That's how interesting~ Watching you fall into the darkness, watching you struggle in pain, and at the same time feeling the despair of being at the end of your life...... How exciting! ”
Chu Ci tugged at the corners of his mouth: "You're really a madman." ”
Fate crouched down and sat down next to him: "Each other." ”
Chu Ci moved to the side: "Who is with you?!" I will not be with you...... I'm sensible. ”
Fate did not move, and looked at him playfully: "Reason or nature, which is more in line with your heart?" ”
Chu Ci was silent, then got up and walked straight towards the gate in front of the thorn bush. He allowed the sharp thorns to pierce his clothes, to pierce his skin, and to leave indestructible scars on it.
"Isn't it?" Fate got up, "This is still a great drain on the body, not to mention that your strength is still sealed now." ”
Chu Ci glanced at him: "Whose fault do you think this is?" ”
“……”
Chu Ci ignored him, walked through the thorn bush, and came to the gate. This time, he reached out and moved to the chain, which was broken, and the door was gradually pushed open by an invisible force.
"You're just leaving? Don't stay any longer? Fate raised an eyebrow and shouted behind him.
Chu Ci was indifferent, and his footsteps did not stop: "I'm afraid that I won't be able to stand it if I stay alone with you any longer." ”
Fate shrugged his shoulders and said no more, just watched him leave the space, and the moment he stepped out of it completely, the heavy door slowly closed again.
Fate lowered his eyes, then turned around, looking at the scene that completely turned black and red in front of him.
"No one will agree with you......"
"Then you don't need it."
He raised his eyes, and there was no longer any extra emotion in his golden eyes, only indifference and ruthlessness.
-- Outside --
Chu Ci heard the sound of the door closing behind him, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
He patted his chest, then looked up to see his surroundings.
"Chu Ci?" Yuan Xi happened to walk here at this time, and saw Chu Ci standing in the corridor alone in a daze, "Or are you fate?" ”
Chu Ci's eyes were cold: "How do you know?" ”
The corners of Yuan Xi's mouth hooked slightly, and he said jokingly: "What do you think? I'm not who you think I am. ”
Chu Ci raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Maybe that~"
