Chapter 713: The Witch's Tale
The Wilderness Witch's own combat power was originally very weak, and after being hit by a blade of air from the Heavenly Pure People, she immediately floated down like a leaf, looking at the height, after she fell, even if she was not killed by the Heavenly Pure People, at least she would be killed. lΔ
At that time, seeing this situation, I almost instinctively flew towards her, stopped her waist and hugged her, only to find that she was pale, the corners of her mouth were full of blood, and she was already seriously injured.
Because the injury was so severe, she couldn't hold the witch scepter in her hand, so she let go and threw it away.
I hurriedly unleashed a slash and grabbed the witch scepter back.
"Liu Yijian, let her go quickly, you don't toast or eat and drink!"
The Tianqing and Jade Halals immediately arrived, and when they saw me holding the Wilderness Witch, they couldn't help but shout.
"What do you want to do? Want to do it with your brother? We're here to help! β
Seeing the actions of the two old men, the little fools flew in front of me in an instant, blocking me behind.
I took a look at them, but found that Feng Wu didn't know when, but she was gone.
Seeing this, I quickly understood, knowing that Feng Wu was worried that the Heavenly Innocent people would ask about the reason for the disappearance of the God Realm team, so I hid in advance.
"You little dolls don't know how thick the sky is, the poor road doesn't want to hurt you, I advise you to get out of the way quickly, today we will only deal with the wilderness witch, as long as we capture her and get the witch scepter, we will leave here immediately!" The heavenly innocent people looked at us and said.
"You want the Witch Scepter, don't you? Here you go! As I spoke, I threw the witch god's scepter away, but instead of throwing it towards the heavenly innocents, I threw it into the distance.
Seeing that the witch god's scepter was thrown out by me, the Tianqing Zhenren and the Jade Qingzhen changed color at the same time, and snatched it over there together.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but pick up the Wilderness Witch, turned around and galloped off into the distance.
As I flew away, I told the little fool through the power of my soul that they should also flee for their lives, and that the two old men wanted to capture the Wilderness Witches, and I believe that they would not be arrested, and even if they did, they should not be dealt with harshly.
Because I was worried about being caught up by the Tianqing and Jade Qingzhen, I held the wilderness witch for a while, and after reaching the distance, in order not to reveal my whereabouts, I lowered my head and went into the black witch forest, with the help of the protection and shelter of those dryads, and kept running into the depths of the forest.
Sure enough, after running for a while, and not finding the pursuers, I was relieved, and then I found a stream and stopped, and put the Witch of the Wilderness on the grass by the water.
"How are you feeling?" I asked, looking at the Wilderness Witch.
The moonlight shone down through the trees and fell on her face, making it look a little cold.
She looked at me and laughed miserably, "It's useless, the witch god's scepter has been planted by me with a soul mark, as long as I'm alive, they can't control it freely, so even if we run far, they will always find it." β
"Then you have to run, you can't sit still, hide for a day," I said, taking a handkerchief from my coat pocket, soaking it in the stream, turning back to help her wipe the blood from the corners of her mouth and neck, and then asked the dryads to bring some fruit, and then sat down beside her while eating it.
"Are you hungry, do you want to eat some?" I asked her.
She smiled and shook her head, closed her eyes and pondered for a while, then her blue eyes opened, looked at me and said, "Why do you want to save me?" What they say is true, I am indeed the plague god of the Western world, thousands of human beings have died at my hands, and I am indeed the most heinous sin. β
I frowned and thought for a while, I didn't know how to answer her, and finally I could only sigh, "There is a saying in Buddhism, put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot, you may have been really bad and evil before, but now that you have become better, that is repentance, so why kill you?" β
"How do you know I'm getting better?" She looked at me and asked curiously.
I pondered for a while, and finally I could only say to her, "I don't know if you have gotten better, anyway, I feel that you should get better, at least after you were resurrected this time, you didn't deliberately kill people again, and you didn't release the plague, so I think you should change." β
She laughed miserably, didn't deny it, didn't agree, just asked me, "Would you like to hear my story?" β
I thought her story must have been a long, long time ago, so I nodded, "If you're willing to tell it, that's my pleasure." β
She thought for a while, and then said quietly, "A long, long time ago, there was a little girl, she was very kind since she was a child, but her family was very poor, she often starved, she did not have enough to eat, she was small and thin, her father worked in the mill, it was very hard work, and he didn't earn much money all day, and the bread that was bought with that money was not even enough for their family to eat. One evening, the little girl took the money her father had given her to buy bread, and the dough was packed in a paper bag, and on the way back she met a little boy from the same village, who was poorer and thinner, and when she saw the boy, she kept shouting in her heart, don't come. She didn't want to give the bread to the little boy, but the little boy came anyway, and he was so hungry that he almost fainted, so the girl broke a large piece of the bread she had bought and gave it to him, and when the little boy took the bread, he was very happy, and said that she was the best girl in the world, and that when she grew up, she would make a lot of money, and buy her a lot of beautiful clothes and precious stones, and marry herβ"
The Witch of the Wilderness stopped at this point, looked sideways at the stream, and said to herself, "It was a wonderful time, and though I was poor and miserable, I lived happily every day." β
I nodded and said, "What about later?" Did the boy marry her? β
Hearing this, she looked at me and asked, "What do you think?" β
I shook my head and said I didn't know, so she sighed and said, "From then on, the girl would give the boy a piece of bread every day, and the boy and she became good friends, and they grew up together and had a deep relationship." β
She stopped again at this point, her voice became a little choked, and she continued for a long time, "But then one day, there was a war in the country, and the boy was dragged to the battlefield, and the girl wrote to him every day, waiting for him to come back, but he never came back, and it was not until the end of the war two years later that the girl saw him, but it was in the public recruitment, he had died in battle, and was buried with many, many people, and the day the girl learned the news, she fainted several times, and she couldn't believe that all this was true." β
"The girl has become silent since then, often talking to herself, she has always felt that the boy is not dead, she misses him very much, she wants to see her again, but she doesn't know how to see her again, as long as one day, she accidentally meets a witch, the witch said that she can help her meet the boy, that is, there is a condition, after she sees the boy, she must not speak, otherwise, it will have very serious consequences."
