Chapter 53: Causes
"Xue Fei." I whispered in my voice. "Xue Fei, Xue Fei."
No voice answered me.
But I saw her walk into our house and go to my brother's room. Why don't you ignore me?
I tiptoed over, and at the door, I saw her walking to her brother's bed. With a gentle wave, her brother floated up from the bed to her side.
Xue Fei raised her hand and just touched her brother's shoulder lightly with her white fingers, and her brother's face instantly turned pale and bloodless. Xue Fei laughed in a strange voice.
What is she doing here?
"Xue Fei! Snow Fei! I called her name after another.
She looked back at me and giggled weirdly. Then he took his brother in his arms and flew into the darkest part of the sky.
"Oh, you're not Xuefei, give my brother back."
I was about to catch up. A grunting sound woke me up. Anything should be called, or who learns the call of an owl. I wasn't sure, so I put on my slippers and stood in front of the windowsill and looked out.
The night was already deep. The moon hung high in the sky like a silver platter. Under the night sky, the shadow of the new warehouse, the dark and dreary yard. Only a lamp in the porch, illuminated by a lonely silvery glow.
Luckily, it was just a dream. I exhaled a long breath, and my heart, which had been pounding, fell safely in its place at the moment.
"Coo...... "Another owl called. Well, it really seems to be calling me. So I put on my clothes, crept downstairs, and walked into the courtyard.
There are no ghosts, what the hell is going on? I remembered the scene in the dream just now, brother, he will be fine, right? I stood in the yard and quietly looked at my brother's window. Maybe it's my delusion, but I always think something is going to happen soon? If that's the case, what should I be able to do?
After thinking about it, I still walked towards the storeroom, I thought I should talk to Xue Fei about it, although it was just a dream.
A cat came out of nowhere and followed me gracefully.
The door to the warehouse was ajar. It's a really nice feeling to be in the middle of the moon, everything is bathed in moonlight, and the silver glow is all over the field. As soon as I opened the warehouse door, I found Xue Fei standing there, along with Gu Yu Bird, Snow Boy and several other powerful monsters standing side by side, as if they were waiting for me on purpose.
"You're finally here, so slow."
It wasn't any of them who spoke, but Cangzhi, who hadn't been seen for a long time.
"Hey, when did you come back? Also, what do you need to do in this battle? ”
Cangzhi nodded at me, but asked behind me, "Is there any situation?" ”
Who to talk to? I looked behind me strangely, but I didn't see anyone's shadow.
"Nothing, it seems that today has passed safely." A voice replied.
Oh, that's the cat!
The originally elegant kitten's body continued to stretch and stand upright again. Right under my nose he had lost his fur, and the dark-skinned boy stood in front of me like you'd never seen before.
"You are?"
I was sure I had never seen him in the warehouse, so I asked curiously.
"You're really a noble person, we just dealt with each other not long ago, and then again, your teacher's dream is really not very delicious." The boy grinned at me, revealing two small tiger teeth.
"Are you a nightmare? How did it get like this? "I was amazed.
"It's not surprising that he absorbed the spiritual power in the formation, instead of feeding on human dreams. So gradually he returned to orthodoxy, to what it really was. Cangzhi explained to me.
"We just let him out on patrol, and we'll call you over by the way." It's rare for the snow boy to talk to me as soon as he opens his mouth.
Thinking back to the dream I had at the beginning, I tentatively asked, "Is something going to happen?" ”
"Originally, we didn't want to hide it from you, we came to you to discuss this matter with you." Xue Fei nodded and said.
It turned out that when Cangzhi went out to travel around, he occasionally got a message from a little goblin. It is said that there is a monster with profound mana that is preparing to attack here.
"Who would be so bold as to attack here?"
"Bone Girl."
"Isn't it amazing?"
"It's about the same as me." Xue Fei said.
"What are you afraid of her? How many of us have here? I said nonchalantly.
"The most terrible thing about the problem is not her strength, but her cunning." Xue Fei said.
Cang Zhi nodded and added, "The main thing is that he is in the dark and we are in the light." We don't know where he's going to start. This makes us very passive. ”
I suddenly remembered my dream, could it ......
I quickly recounted the dream I had just had. Xue Fei listened carefully and slapped her thigh for the last time.
"That's right, from where you look at it, your brother is the weakest link, it's really a good idea to start with him and then control him to take the opportunity to blackmail us!" Xue Fei came to such a conclusion after some analysis.
"But it was just a dream! What if I'm mistaken? "I think it's a bit too far-fetched to come to these conclusions based on a dream alone.
"Don't underestimate yourself too much! You're not the same young girl you used to be now," Xue Fei said to me, is this an encouragement?
"In that case, shouldn't we set it up a little bit and welcome her here?" Xue Fei suggested.
"Leave it to me." Cangzhi said and walked outside.
I was about to go with you when Xue Fei stopped me. "There are some things that you should talk back to."
Hearing him say that, I stopped strangely. I want to see what Xue Fei wants to tell me.
"Do you remember, you once asked me why I was here." Xue Fei said.
I nodded, yes, of course I remember that.
Xue Fei walked to the small window of the warehouse, looked at the quiet night outside, and fell into the memories of the past.
"I remember a long, long time ago, when I lived in the mountains, or on an island in the middle of the sea. We always keep a certain distance from humans. Keep this distance, which is safe for both humans and us.
At that time, there were many youkai, and I know that there were more than 600 of them. They are always scattered in all corners of the world, because the heaven and earth are full of spiritual power, and we often do not need to have any conflict with human beings to live peacefully.
But everything has changed in the face of human creativity. Mankind first invented gunpowder, steam, oil and even electricity. Slowly, people are no longer in awe of nature, but are in control of it.
They hunt and kill indiscriminately, they cut down forests, and they dig minerals uncontrollably. People always take the gifts of nature as if they were their own.
Gradually, the sky is no longer blue, the sea is no longer blue, and even the air is filled with the smell of heavy metals. What's more, with the footsteps of human conquest spreading to every corner of the world, the monsters have no place to hide. What's more deadly is that due to the continuous development of technology and energy, the spiritual power that originally became every corner slowly disappeared and was slowly replaced.
Originally, these were insignificant to human beings, but for us who have relied on spiritual power to survive for generations, it is the arrival of the end of the world.
In the end, in order for the group to survive, it is a last resort. Many of the only remaining Great Demon Gods have chosen to sacrifice themselves and incarnate into a magic array, constantly releasing their huge spiritual power for future generations to survive. That's why settlements have been formed, so many youkai have gathered here today, because this is where one of the magic circles is located, and deep in the ground under our feet is hidden one of the great demon gods who chose to sacrifice themselves and sacrifice themselves. It's also me and Snow Boy's mother, and that's why I'm here. ”
After saying this, Xue Fei turned to look at me, and then said: "I met you, maybe it was the arrangement that my mother made for us in the dark, no matter what the reason, we finally met, so you have the right to know all this." And what I hope more is that you can join me in fighting bravely to protect all this. With your help, I believe that I will be able to gain greater strength and courage. Because no matter what, I know that there is a human sister who supports me behind me. The world is still friendly, not useless. So now, Fei Fei, please tell me, will you help us? ”
As Xue Fei asked, all the eyes in the warehouse looked at me, containing countless hopes and expectations.
At this moment, I was so excited, and after knowing all this, how could I not be moved and self-dedicated! Self-sacrifice! The demon can still do this. As a human being, how can I say no?
"I will, I will fight with you, my sister!"
After I finished saying this, the whole warehouse was boiling, watching their cheers, I also deeply realized what it means: give people roses, and leave a lingering fragrance in your hands.
