Chapter 121: Cranky
"Can you hurry!" Ciri snapped his head on horseback and glanced at Rod, urging. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Ciri...... I'm so sick now," said the boy, "I don't even know the point of running." ”
"It's just a guess!" Ciri glared at him, scolding in hatred. "Even if you want to think nonsense, please get out of here first, and then continue when you get to a safe place?"
(Where can you go if you escape, go back to see your creator, and what attitude should you take to face them when you understand the truth, especially your mother, who has always admired and worshipped?)
Rode's heart was so dead that he couldn't raise half of his motivation, so he just felt that it was better to let the pursuers behind him catch up and kill him now: "Could it be, those people who are chasing me were sent by my parents, because I am not as obedient as my sister Roy, and I always cause trouble...... They're trying to get rid of me?"
"You're enough!" Ciri interrupted him angrily, "I don't know why you're different from others, and I don't believe that anyone in the world can make a so-called 'perfect human'. But your parents love you, and you can feel it when you listen to the stories you tell. Do you think it's important that they love you, or is it important if they're your biological parents?"
"They love me...... But I was a little skeptical that my memories were real. You say, is it possible that all the memories I had before I left home were instilled in me by the creators, but I was only a few months old and was starting to test ......"
"You shouldn't run out and take risks, you should sit at home and write stories, because your imagination is so rich. Ciri was speechless: "Now shut up, don't disturb the rhythm of the rush and my thoughts." ”
"Okay. Rod said sadly. Everything he thought he could enjoy for granted, but he was suddenly told that it might be illusory, and there was a huge gap in it, and he couldn't think of suitable words to describe it.
Are you made from ordinary humans, and if so, where are your real parents? Or are you just a complete man-made being? What if one day your mother gets bored with her and wants to create a new thing to play?
The flexibility of the brain turned into a shortcoming, and all kinds of strange thoughts quickly poured out of his mind, and Rhodes suddenly hated Dr. Mithelel, why did he let himself know the truth...... How nice it would be to live in this scam forever!
......
"Alas, as a poor girl who has no father or mother, and is chased all over the universe by a group of non-humans, I'm sorry I can't understand your feelings. Ciri saw that Rhodes was silent, and realized that he had just said a little rushed, and his tone suddenly softened: "But the people who care about you, it doesn't matter if you are born or artificial, I care about you very much, I hope you don't be chased and killed by the killers behind you, so hurry up with you!"
The maiden witcher slowed down to the back of the boy's side, stood up on the stirrup, leaned over and whipped Rhodes with his whip, and the speed of the mount's pain immediately increased, much faster than before.
"You know what, always thinking too much is also a manifestation of childishness. ”
......
Everyone has something to be afraid of, Rhodes is not afraid of the earth, but he is very afraid of being called naïve, especially Ciri. Although the knot in his heart has not been unraveled, he still forces himself to stop thinking and make a strong appearance. After thinking for a while, he remembered something again: "Ciri, can't you take me to another world, let's not run away, let's go directly." ”
"I will, if we get overtaken. "But if you want to escape reality or find it fun to travel through the world, I'm not your vehicle to travel through the world." ”
......
The moon hid in the clouds again, the escape route disappeared into the darkness, the horse did not dare to run in the dark, and the speed suddenly decreased, although Rhodes could still see the ground in front of him, but he really couldn't control the speed of the beasts under him who belonged to the enemy half a day ago. In addition, the super night vision that he relies on at this moment is also one of the proofs that he is not human, and his mood is even worse. The two of them did this—quickening when the moon came out, slowing down when the moonlight was blocked, groping their way to the ferry.
It was late at night, and it had been a few hours since the two of them left the clinic, and it was supposed that they were already close to the ferry or at least to the river, but there was no trace of the river as far as the eye could see.
"Damn, we might be lost. Ciri also had to slow down at this time, and immediately took out the map and frowned: "I don't know where it is now, it's better to find someone to ask......"
"It's so late, let's all go to bed. ”
"Rod, you're good at everything, it's just naïve. ”
"What?" Even though he was in a depressed mood, Rhodes' face immediately heated, and he didn't know what he had done wrong.
"You're always prioritizing. Ciri didn't look at him, held up the map in his hand and pointed it towards the moonlight so that he could see the pattern and text on it, and spoke as he thought: "We are now running for our lives, but you are thinking about the sleep of strangers, and when you are sleeping, wake them up, if you refuse to answer, put your sword on his neck and ask him, if you want to stop or even arrest us, cut him! Politeness and consideration for others are certainly virtues, but they do not apply anytime and anywhere." ”
"Uh-huh, I understand...... It's just a habit. Rhodes rode close to the maiden and wanted to look at the map together.
But Ciri put away his things: "I can't figure out the location at all, find a place where someone lives, and ask for directions." ”
There are many reasons why Anteli was originally called one of the three great kingdoms of the North, but at the end of the day, the most important thing is that it is quite large. After running for a day and a night, they were still in the heart of the kingdom. This meant that they were still in a densely populated area, and along the route, the two quickly found a small village.
The countryside doesn't have as much nightlife as the cities, and even lighting oil lamps is a luxury for those who beg for a living from the land, not to mention magic lighting. The sun rises and ploughs and the sun sets is their life, and it has been so for thousands of years, and it will continue to be for at least a hundred years.
Riding into the village in the dark, the sound of the horse's hooves hitting the ground soon alarmed a dog tethered to the door, and the dog barked at them, and the roar soon echoed its kind, and at least ten dogs began to bark one after another among the low houses, and the silence of the village night was broken.
"You stay here, I'll be right back. Ciri turned over and dismounted, drew his sword and walked to the nearest hut, shook his weapon to scare the dog away, and knocked on the door: "Is there anyone, I am a passing traveler, lost, and in need of help." ”
There was no response, but there was a dog at the door and there could not be no one in the house. The girl looked back at Rhodes, who was sitting on the horse, and raised her chin, as if to say, "Look at me."
She took a few steps back, raised her long legs and kicked them hard, the soles of her boots hitting the door, and the whole cabin seemed to crumble with a bang, and the earth dog, which was only a circle larger than the fox form of Silver, was frightened and took a few steps back, and stood in the distance and continued to yell at Ciri.
"Speak, or I'll tear this plank in and ask!"
