Chapter 16 The Florist
There was boundless darkness all around, only a faint light seemed to be in the distance ahead, and Chen Xi walked in the direction of the light source. I don't know how long I walked, Chen Xi saw a huge door. The entire body of the door is cast in bronze and carved with countless ghosts. Thirteen lamps were lit around the bronze door, and a faint blue flame was rising from them. Chen Xi stretched out his hand and tried to push the door open.
"Hero, are you listening, Hero, if it's okay, I'll go first," the baboon boss finished speaking, got up and hurried away with his group of younger brothers.
Chen Xi touched his neck, there was no wound, and there was no blood. Chen Xi immediately turned his puzzled gaze to Cesar, who was standing aside and smiling.
"I know you have doubts, everything you just experienced is true, I did cut your throat with the blade of Cylla" Cesar pulled out the short black knife full of veins
"But I put up an enchantment in this place to rewind time to ten minutes ago."
"So it's a joke?"
"It's a test, congratulations, passed. You convince me that you will not abuse your power. ”
Was it a test? However, there is some discomfort.
"I watched your battle with the Dream Weaver that day. You don't have to have any guilt, fear, disgust, or other negative emotions because you have the seemingly evil ability to devour people."
Sai Wu handed his knife to Chen Xi
"This knife is called the Blade of Cyra. Legend has it that in a certain era, a general slain the mighty Angel of Slaughter Cyra slain with a stratagem and trap, forged this dagger with his blood and bones. The knife gave the general great strength, and he was invincible from then on. But he was gradually eroded by the will to kill in the knife. He became increasingly brutal, and later his men stole the knife while he was asleep and cut off his head with the knife. The next few masters of the knife were not allowed to die well. It is said to be cursed by fallen angels and is an evil knife. But this knife has been with me for more than 200 years, and I have used it to cut off the heads of countless evildoers. Those monsters have killed a lot of people, and their presence will kill countless innocent people. I killed those monsters with this knife that people thought was evil, and I indirectly saved a lot of people. So, whether it's a weapon or a power, as long as the tip of your sword is pointed at the darkness, then you are in the light. ”
Late at night, Feng Xin was lying on the bed, with a smile on the corner of her mouth in her sleep, as if she had dreamed of something happy.
A man in a white trench coat wearing a mask painted with blood-colored roses stood next to the bed.
He looked at the sleeping Feng Xin and said in a magnetic voice, "Get up, baby"
Feng Xin sat up and opened her eyes, but there was a mist in her eyes, and the air was filled with the scent of roses.
"Your name is Feng Xin, isn't it?"
"Yes"
"Do you know a teenager named Chen Xi?"
"Knowing"
"Do you like him?" said a bewitching smile on his face under the rose mask.
"I like it, I like Brother Chen Xi the most"
"What did you just dream?
"I dreamed that I became the bride of Chen Xi's brother"
"And does he like you?"
"I don't know, it's annoying, he seems to treat me like a child"
"Let me see your hands"
The girl obediently stretched out her little hand.
The man in the rose mask grabbed the white hand and placed a seed on the back of her hand, which sprouted and burrowed into the girl's skin.
A delicate rose tattoo appeared on the back of the girl's hand. Then the tattoo slowly fades away.
The man took the girl's hand and said, "You put this hand in the heart of the boy you like, and he will fall in love with you." ”
Brother Chen Xi, at No. 196 Yechun Road after you get out of school, I have something for you.
What a thing, so mysterious.
You'll know when you're here.
Chen Xi came to the place that Feng Xin said in the text message, this is a flower shop, Chen Xi pushed open the door and walked in. There were no customers in the shop, just a clerk wearing a strange rose mask.
Unlike other flower shops, it is full of dense roses, a piece of blood red, more red than ordinary roses, just like blood, and the bloody feeling is strange.
Chen Xi saw Feng Xin who fell to the ground and hugged her.
"Feng Xin, Feng Xin, how are you?" Chen Xi said a little anxiously.
"Brother Chen Xi?" Feng Xin opened his eyes, "Where is this?"
"Didn't you tell me to come over and say something for me?"
"No, I remember I should have slept in my bed. Oh, I see, I'm dreaming" Feng Xin blinked her eyes wide. Seeing that he was being held in Chen Xi's arms, surrounded by red roses, the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers, a dreamy scene.
She pecked Chen Xi's face lightly, a little shy, and buried her little head in Chen Xi's arms.
Although being kissed on the cheek by the girl made Chen Xi's heart ripple a little, he didn't feel quite right in the surrounding environment, so he directly pulled Xiao Feng Xin and walked out.
"Don't go, buy a rose," the clerk looked up, a mask painted with roses. A beprising face with very white skin, like porcelain.
"I'm a person with status, and I don't talk to people who have no face and no skin, and hide their heads and tails"
"I'm sad when you say that," the clerk took off his mask, revealing a bewitching face with very white skin, like porcelain. Anyway, only one of the two of us will make it out alive, so what if you see my face?" a mocking smile came to the man's lips.
A man is born so charming, you are wearing men's clothes now, and you will definitely gain a lot of brainless fans when you debut. Now this kind of feminine little fresh meat that is neither male nor female is very marketable. Even if you don't have acting skills, you can get a sky-high salary with a beautiful face. This big brother, you are really talented in selling roses in this flower shop, it is better to be an actor. With your looks, you can also find a part-time job in the Cowherd shop, and you may be able to become the first duck king in China, and your name will go down in history. If you accidentally fall in love with a rich woman, she will also invest in making a movie for you.
If you don't want to show up, change into women's clothes, take a few photos and put them in the kind of group where the dead house gathers, you can make money every day just by selling original fat and stockings, and make a lot of money, which is definitely much better than working in a flower shop.
Many young ladies on the Internet just post very loud voices in the group where the dead fat house gathers, and then post some slightly exposed photos, which can attract a large wave of dead fat houses to kneel and lick. Then buy a lot of cheap underwear and stockings on Taobao, crumple them, and send them to those dead fat houses. While counting the money, I scolded those dead houses for being idiots, and the money of fools is really easy to earn.
Chen Xi looked at the bewitching man in front of him and said, "No money"
He doesn't have a girlfriend and a single dog, so he buys roses and goes back to cook rose porridge to drink? Isn't it a big deal to buy roses to cook porridge in a flower shop? The money is enough to drink rose porridge in a restaurant until he vomits.
"The roses in our store are not expensive"
"I don't have a penny in my pocket"
Chen Xi heard the sound of cars and people outside, and he stepped into the forbidden atrium of a dangerous species.
"If you don't need money, just use your life," the man said, and all the pots containing roses exploded, and vines with spikes attacked him.
Blood tentacles poured out from Chen Xi's back, one part protected Feng Xin behind him, and the other part entangled those attacking flower vines, and as soon as those flower vines touched the blood tentacles, they were sucked dry of their vitality, withered, and fell to the ground weakly. Soon, all the roses in the store withered.
The voluptuous man applauded.
"You're stronger than I thought"
The man then jumped back to dodge the Blood Tentacles' attacks, and he retreated directly outside the Blood Tentacles' attack range.
Chen Xi did not pursue again because he was worried about the safety of the girl next to him.
"That sissy over there, what's your name?"
"My name is Shiro, just a poor brother, my dear brother was killed by you. He's waiting for you down there, you're going to have to die soon. If you die too late and my brother goes to reincarnation, you won't see him."
"Brother brother, brother, oh, I see, you're the younger brother of the Dream Weaver. Your brother is a man-eating monster, and his crime is extremely heinous, even if he is reincarnated, he is still a beast, so I will send you and your brother together with kindness, and let you both go to reincarnation as beasts together," Chen Xi said.
There are only two ways to leave the Atrium Forbidden Land, one is for the caster to take the initiative to disarm, and the other is to kill the caster.
"Xiao Feng Xin, you run out, run farther, my brother will come to you when he defeats this bad guy. Chen Xi turned his head to Feng Xin and said.
They are in the forbidden atrium of this man named Shiro, and everything around them is a virtual shadow of the real world, and Shiro can be found wherever they hide. Chen Xi just wanted Feng Xin to run farther away, so that he wouldn't be affected by his battle with Bai, he would be able to let go of his hands and feet to fight, as long as he dealt with this guy, everything around him would be back to normal.
At this time, he saw a mist in Feng Xin's eyes.
Oops, the fragrance of flowers in the air has a psychedelic effect, he is naturally fine if he is strong, but Feng Xin is an ordinary person.
Feng Xin put her little hand on Chen Xi's chest, her heart ached, and a rose grew out of Chen Xi's chest. Chen Xi saw that the fog in Feng Xin's eyes gradually receded, his expression was painful, and two lines of tears slipped from the corners of his eyes. Chen Xi shook his head, indicating that it was not her fault.
He grabbed the rose from his chest, pulled it out, and threw it away, as if he had torn a piece of flesh from his heart. But another rose sprouted from his chest.
The man named Bai picked up the rose, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, and exclaimed, "This sweet fragrance, this smell of temptation, no wonder my brother lost his life for this"
Bai gently stroked the rose, and four small green feet grew from the stem of the rose, and the man put the rose on the ground, and the rose crawled very quickly and disappeared at once.
Roses emerged from Chen Xi's heart, and he felt that his flesh and blood had become the nourishment of those flowers, and these roses bloomed more and more delicately. He felt that his body was starting to lose strength, his legs became weak, he could not stand, and he fell to one knee on the ground.
