Chapter 48: Rainy Night

A dark forest, a looming silhouette of a mountain, and the only candle flame coming from a lonely cabin.

The silence of the night sky was broken by a thunderclap, heavy rain poured down with lightning and thunder, and the wind joined the battle and howled across the land.

"Bang ta, bang ta. ”

This time the rain was not small, and the melody sounded a little manic, some fell to the ground and splashed high, while others fell and rang in people's hearts.

Tong Xiaoyu sat a little bored under the eaves of the cabin, quietly listening to the faint melancholy brought by the song of the rain, watching the splash wet his trouser legs.

"It's such a nuisance that the rain makes the mountain roads muddy, the clothes sticky, and the people hard to meditate. ”

"Your name in this life is Tong Xiaoyu, and you actually hate rain?"

Jiang Xiaolin walked out of the cabin, maybe it was a little hot during the thunderstorm, she only wore a short-sleeved T-shirt and shorts, and a lot of skin was exposed, fortunately there were no men, otherwise the sudden spring would make them bleed.

"The name doesn't mean the character, I like the wind more than the rain, it's not as cold as the rain can bring coolness. ”

"Each has its own characteristics, it mainly depends on personal preference, but I don't like it in the wind or rain, because when my divine power overflows, they will only become a killer that destroys everything. ”

This is Jiang Xiaolin's saddest, as the god of calamity, everything that seems beautiful will become a weapon in her hand, and when she touches it with her hands, it may bring destruction if she is not careful.

"You can control your divine power now, you shouldn't need to worry, what I'm afraid of is that your magic box will affect you, it shouldn't be condensed by your strength. ”

"Yes, it was a gift from a god that was said to contain the most terrible calamity in the world, called Pandora's Box. ”

"Pandora's Box!"

This is a mythical creature with a bad name, and it is not impossible to destroy humans and even the gods themselves.

"It's all right, because the god who gave it to me is a symbol of life. Every time I inject my divine power into the box, I bring a lot less calamity, which is a treasure for me. And as long as it is not opened, the calamity inside will not overflow on its own. ”

Tong Xiaoyu didn't ask anymore, maybe other gods in heaven and earth could harm Jiang Xiaolin, but only the god of life wouldn't.

"It seems that a guest has arrived. ”

The two looked at the woods ahead, where a different sound disrupted the heavy rain's performance.

Visibility was low on a rainy night, and the falling drops of water were like silver threads connecting the heavens and the earth, but to God it was nothing.

As the footsteps got closer and closer, the appearance of the person who came had already appeared, and the two breathed a sigh of relief, they didn't want to start a battle on this rainy day, which would only make the already bad mood worse.

"Why did you come to me. ”

The visitor walked quickly to the cabin with small steps. The small umbrella didn't completely protect her, and a little rain slid down the corners of her clothes, and she looked like she had taken a shower with her clothes on.

"Xiaofeng is afraid that he has come to this ancient city, sorry, I didn't protect him. ”

Lin Yali felt a little guilty, Tong Xiaoyu had entrusted everything to her, but she failed.

"I already know, since it happened, then you don't blame yourself too much, he hasn't been involved in this war yet, and everything is still salvageable. ”

"You know, did you see him?"

Tong Xiaoyu shook his head.

"I didn't see him, but I did see my mom. ”

"She's coming to the ancient city too?"

Lin Yali was a little surprised, Tong Li had said that she would never set foot in this ancient city again.

"yes, and a fight with her, it was a battle between the Adepts and the gods. ”

Tong Xiaoyu's face showed a trace of sadness, but the two camps that were incompatible became a family dramatically.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you about it. In fact, after you left two years ago, she and I knew each other's identities, and I told her everything. But you don't have a reason to fight. She wasn't interested in the power of the gods. ”

"She already had the power of a god, but she said it was given to her by a god. And she seems to have joined some organization of the Anomalous, and I'm afraid my brother is in that organization. ”

To say that there are not many powers of the supernatural in the ancient city, most of them are scattered superpowers, but there are also a lot, and it is a little difficult to judge Tong Xiaofeng's location by guessing. No matter how wise Lin Yali was, she couldn't think of which organization took Tong Xiaofeng away and controlled Tong Li.

"Wherever he is, I will definitely bring him back, and now that I have joined the spiritual songs, they will help me find Xiaofeng. ”

"Spiritual Song!"

Both Tong Xiaoyu and Jiang Xiaolin were a little incredible, because it was an unscrupulous place, although a large number of gods were gathered, they often sacrificed the gods in exchange for achieving their goals.

"It's not a good place. ”

"I have no way back, there is power against the Anomalous, and it is the beginning and even the end of this war. ”

Although it is very helpless, this is a fact, even if Tong Xiaoyu and Jiang Xiaolin go to the ancient city every day to harvest their souls, they are not as fast as Lingge to start a war.

Looking at the silent two, Lin Yali smiled.

"Don't worry, although the spirit song is called revenge, it is not blindly waging war. Their leader, Natsu Kui, is indeed a wise man. Perhaps in the near future you will see a war between humanity and the Anomalous. ”

Just like the supernatural against the gods, they have an absolute numerical advantage, and the gap between the humans who aspire to science and the supernatural is also extremely obvious. If those humans were to do their best to exterminate the Anomalous, it wouldn't be very difficult.

But Tong Xiaoyu didn't believe it.

"They are of the same race, and we are outliers of the faith set. ”

"No, for those who worship science, the Adepts are no longer of the same race, they are too cruel and bloodthirsty, and they are as mad as beasts. Otherwise, they would not have been driven into this ancient city. Their strong mindset has detached them from human society. Maybe they're the real outliers. ”

Tong Xiaoyu sighed, even if she continued to argue, she would not come to a result, so she simply stopped thinking about it. The question of who is right and who is wrong is never answered.

"I don't care what Lingge will do, I just want you to live, you know that even if an alien like us dies, someone will have heartache, such as the stupid brother who has been looking for me for two years. ”

"I understand. ”

The heavy rain is still raging in the mountains and forests, and the rhythm of the intertwined music is moving, and the ups and downs of thoughts drift with the wind to the center of the dark clouds.
