One thing is certain, Ba Snake knows this girl named Xiaoxue, but only one-sidedly.

I was a little curious about what was going on, but I suddenly felt dizzy in my head, and when I opened my eyes again, I was back in the Bauhinia Courtyard.

The snake's huge head was still in front of me, and its yellow eyes were staring at me intently.

"You've spied on something you shouldn't, Lord Yak. The snake didn't speak, and the voice came from my head.

I understand that the connection between our demonic forces continues, and it is getting deeper and deeper.

"You know that girl. I also replied to the snake in my mind, "You appeared in the snow knowing that it was winter, and you appeared in such a tiny body, even at the cost of freezing yourself - you were just waiting for her to come, and you were sure that she would save you." ”

The snake didn't speak, but its eyes told me I was right.

"But after you meet, you're going to attack her. I said, "Why?"

The snake remained silent.

"Lu Ke said, you want me to take you back to No Man's Land, then you should understand what it takes to enter No Man's Land, but you forcibly drove me out of your memory, interrupting my key to open your heart. I had a not-so-good guess in my mind, "Why?"

The snake looked away, and it slowly descended, trying to get back into the glass bottle.

I reached out my left hand to block the mouth of the bottle, and my right hand pressed against its smaller and smaller head, crouching down and forcing it to look me in the eye.

"You came to me on a special trip, why?" I don't know how, this scene made me feel familiar, and I desperately wanted to know the answer.

After the last word came out of my mouth, I felt a burning sensation in my palms, and the snake's yellow eyes seemed to suddenly lose concentration, and I had a familiar but unfamiliar feeling in my heart.

This feeling is like something that I have sealed in my heart.

"Control... On. Feather muttered behind me.

The picture unfolded in front of me again, but this time I didn't see what the snake saw.

The high staircase stretched up, the red gate was at the top of the stairs, I unconsciously went up the stairs, all the way up, the strange thing is that I quickly reached the top of the stairs, the other end of the door flashed with different colors of light, through the gap in the door beam I could see the sky, the moon was bent like a crescent moon, there were no lights nearby, but the sky was as bright as day - this sky seemed to be painted by someone, dozens of different blue layers on top of each other, and stars were constantly falling.

I say it because I can't see its exact shape, but I can only see a flickering shadow in the center falling from the sky.

My arm subconsciously lifted up as if I had been doing it all along, grabbing one of the golden stars.

It was jumping in my hand like a flame, and I felt the pain of burning my palm, but I couldn't shake off the golden star, and just when I was anxious, suddenly, the light of the star disappeared.

There was an extra name and a pattern in my palm, and the ink drew an arc with a thick head and a thin end connected end to end, and the owner of this name I knew, because it was right in front of me.

Ba snake.

I looked at the arc closely, and it was indeed like a snake, a snake biting its own tail.

At the same time, I was drawn to the crisp ringing of the bell, and I searched around, and finally found that the bell was on the other side of the door, and I wanted to see what was behind the door, but it seemed to be blocked by an invisible obstruction.

"Lord Yeke, why did you call me here?" was the voice of the snake, but I couldn't see the snake's shadow.

"Where are you?" I asked, "where am I?"

"I'm right here," the voice rang out again, "you're where you're supposed to be." ”

"Who the hell are you?" I asked, "why did you come to me?"

"I am the guardian of the Gate of Time, and I invite you home. ”

This time I found the source of the sound, and it came from me.

“... Go home?"

"Yes, you've been out for too long. The snake drawn in ink in the palm of his hand actually raised his head, "The hidden gate has reappeared, the sleeping no longer exists, and the snake of reincarnation has reincarnated I don't know how many times it finally found you." ”

Its words made me feel like I had been struck by lightning, and countless scenes turned before my eyes, and finally froze in a place I was unfamiliar with.

It looks like 50 years... No, maybe it's 100 years, maybe more years from City A, completely transparent buildings are all over the ground, the sky is exceptionally blue, but there is not a single plant in sight, people don't seem to be any different from today, but they are in a hurry, everyone has a watch on their wrist and it doesn't look like a watch, there are all kinds of machinery flying in the sky, the water flow on the ground seems to be controlled along the building, the world can feel the breath of monsters, but you can't see the shadow of monsters on the street.

It's not City A anymore, but I don't know why, I'm pretty sure it's City A.

"Where are you. "I can't see the snake, but I think it should be here, and this sight should be what it leads me to see.

"I was looking for you, but you're not here. The sound of the snake entered my brain through the eardrum, "but here I met another person." ”

The picture is moving forward as fast as riding a volcanic car, and the momentary weightlessness makes me breathless, and finally, it stops in front of a girl.

The girl was also in a hurry, looking at the watch-like device from time to time, and finally fixing her eyes on a manhole cover.

"Ah, I've found you!" said the girl softly, and with great effort she moved the manhole cover away from a small corner, "come out, don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." ”

After a while, the girl, already tired and sweating, finally got out of something.

The small body, the yellow head, and the flexible body are the snakes. And the girl's appearance is exactly the same as the girl named Xiaoxue in the snow.

Just like the first time I saw the snow, I heard the snake's accelerated heartbeat again.

"Are you going to attack her this time?" I asked.

"No, this is the first time I've seen her. "I'm in love with her." ”

“... Just a glance?"

"Just a glance. "This is my first reincarnation, and I accidentally returned to a place where people banished youkai, and she was the first time I saw a human other than you." ”

I didn't say anything because I seemed to understand what it meant, but in fact I didn't.

The picture plays fast like an accelerator, Ba Snake meets the girl, the girl takes it home secretly in a bag, the girl prepares food for it, chats with it, sings to it, but Ba Snake has been silently saying nothing, even if it can speak, it still doesn't say anything.

"Why don't you speak?"

"Because language is something that is unique to human beings, as soon as I speak, she treats me as a human being. "And she's going to get married soon, so I shouldn't have caused her unnecessary trouble." ”

"Since you're so kind to her... Then why attack her in the snow?"

"Because we met again in my other reincarnation, and happily, she also fell in love with me," said Ba Snake, "but unfortunately, she was also human in that reincarnation." ”
