Chapter 193: Conversation in the Jungle
Once again, the Quaas Forest fell silent, and only the battered and devastated earth still told the people that there had been fierce battles here.
Xie Liu carried the unconscious Ah Shi through the woods, whining quietly along the way.
"What the hell am I doing? Isn't this guy chasing me? What am I doing to save her?" Xie Liu thought in fragments along the way, but his body continued to move forward very honestly.
The girl on her back has been in a coma for a long time, and it seems that she was injured by Oda Nobunaga and needs treatment urgently, but in this place where there are only trees, where can Xie Liu find a place for her to be treated.
The Quias Forest is hundreds of kilometers in diameter, and it is not easy to get out, Xie Liu found a hidden place, placed Ah Shi on top of a grass, and then walked out one by one.
The starry sky attack outside was very brilliant, Xie Liu's naked eyes saw that there were people from the joint team flying in the air, but he didn't dare to contact them, not to mention that it would attract the attention of Oda Nobunaga, just Xie Liu himself couldn't prove his identity at the moment, because all the things he could prove his identity had been lost in the tunnel, and now Xie Liu could only be a black household, of course, if those people from the joint team were not afraid of trouble, it would be okay to take some time to determine Xie Liu's identity, but in this way, it would be difficult to say whether he could get out of this place aliveγ
After all, the previous hunt had nothing to do with the city's high-level management.
The only person Xie Liu could trust at the moment was the people sent by Vladimir, and he couldn't trust anyone else. He looked up at the starry sky, although these starry sky were false, but according to Xie Liu's memory, the position of these stars was not wrong, they were the product of projection according to the pattern of the starry sky on the surface.
According to the star map, Xie Liu roughly identified his location and found the direction he was going to go next.
"Do you want to climb over this mountain?" Xie Liu turned his head to look at a mountain hundreds of meters high behind him, the exit of the Queath Forest was in the north, and Xie Liu was now in the east-central direction, separated from the northern exit by a small mountain range.
"I'm going to die!" Xie Liu finally sighed, in this wilderness, Xie Liu always had a deep sense of powerlessness.
In the end, Xie Liu returned to the place where Ah Shi was, but he found that Ah Shi had woken up, leaning against the rock, looking at him with a wary expression.
Xie Liu stopped in front of her and hesitated for a moment, then untied the purple demon knife on his waist and threw it in front of Ah Shi. "This knife is yours, give it back to you, so you can let down your guard and talk to me?"
Ah Shi's eyes wandered back and forth between the demon knife at his feet and Xie Liu's face for a long time, and finally reached out to pick up the demon knife and pointed it at Xie Liu, she asked in a low voice, "Why don't you kill me." β
"Is there any benefit in killing you?" Xie Liu didn't worry that Ah Shi would really slash him with a knife, even if she had an idea, with his current state, she didn't want to really hurt Xie Liu.
"Didn't I almost kill you before? You don't have any thoughts of revenge?" Ah Shi continued to ask, her wariness of Xie Liu had not yet subsided.
"Revenge, what is that, is there any benefit?" Xie Liu shrugged, "If someone gives me 100 million merit points now for me to kill you, you will be a dead man immediately, the problem is, if no one gives me merit points, why should I kill a beautiful woman." β
It was the first time Ah Shi had heard such strange remarks, and then she said in surprise: "So, I'm worth 100 million points in your eyes?"
"No, give me a credit and I'll kill you too. Now you have no value to me except to satisfy my aesthetic needs, and so on, if you take into account the aesthetic value, I think you can ask for two medals. Xie Liu said seriously.
Ah Shi couldn't cry or laugh, "It turns out that it is worth two points in your eyes." β
Xie Liu smiled noncommittally, Ah Shi knew that Xie Liu's previous words were to reassure her, and she was not a fool, so she put away her smile and said, "Say, what information do you want to get out of me." β
"I like people with brains. Xie Liu snapped his fingers, and Ah Shi's straightforwardness made him very comfortable, "I'll just say it directly, let's say it, who asked you to hunt me down." β
"I don't know. Ah Shi replied bluntly, "Our tasks were all given by some special people in person after finding me, and I don't know who gave the order." β
"Well, you've passed the question, and now, it's your turn to ask me. Xie Liu propped his chin and thought for a while before saying.
"Huh?" Ah Shi looked surprised, and Xie Liu said: "Ah what, you ask me a question, don't you understand that this is called exchanging information?"
"But, but ......" Ah Shi hesitated for a moment, and then she understood, "I see, you didn't treat me as a prisoner, did you, that is, you now want to exchange intelligence and information with me as an equal." β
"Yes, your head is really good. Xie Liu admired that there are indeed not many girls who can see the problem with such a smart eye, and only Frankie is like this in his impression.
"But why would you do that?"
"Because that's the only way you'll be able to tell me what I need. β
Ah Shi was silent, and after a long time, she sighed: "You are a very special person, okay, then as you wish, now is the time for me to ask you, are you a hunter of the direct team?"
"Yes. β
"What's your code name?"
"That's the next question, okay, it's my turn, are you from the hunting party? By the way, my code name is Dead Eye, okay, I'll answer your second question, it's me again, do you know why you were scheduled to attack me?"
Ah Shi thought for a moment before he spoke, "Theoretically speaking, I am also a hunter of my direct team, but the situation is a little special, as for the reason why I attacked you, it is estimated to be related to the nature of my team." β
Xie Liu was silent, he looked at Ah Shi, waiting for her inquiry, both of them were deliberately avoiding some minefields, because they both knew that there were some things that they couldn't say, and they could only ask for information tentatively around these questions.
Ah Shi and Xie Liu both understand that this exchange is actually a battle of wits, and how to make the other party say the information they want is also not an easy thing.
"Have you done something against the will of the higher-ups before?"
"Yes, it's a lot of trouble with them. Xie Liu clenched his hands into fists and propped his chin, "It's my turn, but before that, what I want to say is that you shouldn't be the hunter of our regular seventeen direct teams, and as for your boss, I'm not very sure, maybe it's not a person, or it's not a chairman." And the nature of your team, I guess it's aimed at us hunting teams, and if I'm right, you're the ones that the higher-ups use to purge disobedient hunters like me. β
Ah Shi's eyes trembled, and Xie Liu looked at her in his eyes, "It seems that I guessed correctly, okay, it's time for me to ask you a question." β
Ah Shi finally felt the horror of this guy in front of him, and he could deduce what was hidden behind the problem in just a few questions, and Ah Shi was even a little afraid of Xie Liu's next question.
"Then I'll ask, what is the relationship between you and George. β
"What!" Ah Shi exclaimed, Xie Liu suddenly raised his eyebrows, "Judging by your expression, you should know each other." β
"How do you know George?" Ah Shi asked, Xie Liu said lightly, "I met when I was on a mission before, is this your problem? It's my turn, what is the life mark?"
Ah Shi bit his lip, obviously asking each other in this paragraph, Xie Liu had already forced her into a Jedi, and she was asked by Xie Liu without the slightest power to fight back.
"I'm sorry, I can't say. β
Xie Liu's expression was a little weird, obviously he asked Ah Shi's core secret, this secret she would never tell if she died. So Xie Liu said: "Then let me change the question, is Oda Nobunaga your brother?"
Ah Shi looked at Xie Liu in surprise again, Xie Liu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Don't look at me in surprise like this, one of your code names is Oda Nobunaga, and the other is called Ah Shi, fools know that you are related, as for whether you are brothers and sisters, I am not sure."
Ah Shi bowed his head, and Xie Liu's explanation she was accepting.
"I don't know if he's my brother or not, maybe it's just wishful thinking on my part. After Ah Shi finished speaking, he looked up at Xie Liu, "Finally, I ask a question." β
There was moderation in Ah Shi's tone, obviously she didn't want to talk to Xie Liu anymore.
"Well, you ask. β
Ah Shi hesitated for a moment, and then spoke, "Do you have someone you like?"
"What the hell is this?" Xie Liu complained in his heart, but seeing Ah Shi's serious appearance, Xie Liu sighed: "Yes, there used to be." β
Ah Shi pursed his lips and looked at Xie Liu with a teasing look, "Ah, I almost know." β
After the mutual questioning was over, Xie Liu got a lot of useful information, at least one thing, the forces behind Ah Shi, and there were many superpowers like her.
And Ah Shi, as if he had also gotten the information he wanted, put down the demon knife in his hand, leaned against the rock, and remained silent.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Xie Liu's female phobia is committed again, whether it is asking each other for information before, or even a piece of fragrance in the pond earlier, Xie Liu doesn't feel anything, but when this dissipation stops, Xie Liu feels uncomfortable all over his body, and when he is alone with a girl, he doesn't seem to find a topic to divert his attention, Xie Liu doesn't know how to get along with girls.
"Xie Liu, pluck up your courage, there is a super beauty at the same level as Angela in front of you, in this wilderness, I ...... Well, wilderness ......" Xie Liu thought about it and suddenly felt a burst of heat on his face, all the way from his cheeks to the roots of his ears.
"Ahhhh
"This woman is not a good person to get along with. "Xie Liu has learned this woman's superpowers, it's not too easy to beat herself, now she is injured and can't do anything to herself, if she offends her at this time, when she recovers, she can only die.
"Lin Yang, when will they find me? Xie Liu got up from the pool, lay on the grass, and looked at the sky.
This day is really tired, since he came out of Canadian Lum, he has been busy running for his life, and the injuries on his body are not light, although his little life is saved at the moment, but the future is still very difficult.
"Forget it, go to sleep. Xie Liu finally wiped his face with the spring water, staggered back, and stopped when he reached the edge of the woods on the outskirts of the rocks where Ah Shi was.
In the faint moonlight, Xie Liu clearly saw Ah Shi's emaciated figure, leaning on the rock a little lonely.
For some reason, Xie Liu stopped, just quietly looking at the woman in front of him, and he felt the sadness emanating from this woman.
"Mingyuki, Peter, let's go. Ah Shi said softly, she stroked the two small objects in her hand, Xie Liu could see clearly, a small bronze sword and a somewhat broken ocarina.
"Your dreams, I will carry them for you, don't worry. Aichi whispered, and took two small objects into her arms, which were the relics of the two people she had snatched at the end of her collision with Oda Nobunaga.
After doing all this, Ah Shi lowered his head in silence, and Xie Liu could see that in her silver pupils, there were still crystal tears.
At this moment, Xie Liu remembered what Vladimir had said.
"If you can, please be a gentle person, pack your heart, and bring your taste, because every departure, it may be the last. If you can, be an interesting person and at least grasp the little things in life. β
Xie Liu didn't understand it very well before, but he had been in the direct team for more than two years, and he was also used to death and parting, but he didn't think that every time he set off, it might be the last time.
Rao is like this, their group of people still set off without hesitation, and all they were left with was the words of their friends who had heard them thousands of times.
"I wish you good luck and prosperity. β
Xie Liu coughed twice, Ah Shi wiped away his tears in a panic after hearing the voice, Xie Liu did not appear immediately, but gave her time to sort out her emotions, until Ah Shi hid the relics of his comrades, he wiped away his tears, and Xie Liu walked out of the woods.
"You are seriously injured and need treatment, but my medical items were lost when you chased and killed, you should also take a little with you, you deal with it yourself first, don't worry, I won't peek." After Xie Liu finished speaking, he turned around a little panicked, and quickly went around to the back of the rock.
Ah Shi had just cleaned up her mood, but when she saw Xie Liu running away in a panic, she smiled slightly, it seems that this guy is not as terrible as she imagined.
Xie Liu found a relatively comfortable lawn, lay on it, looked at the bright starry sky, and then sighed: "Another tiring day!" Then he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
