Chapter 226: The Devil Will Remember, But He Will Not Repent
If desired, the dream can be without night.
The sun will always hang in the sky, falling the color of orange peel, stretching the shadows on the earth for a long time, and the wind will carry colorful emotions and fill the sky with the brilliant color of diamond dust.
A group of ugly, huge figures, in a circle, lowered their heads, looked at two little girls, sitting side by side on the grass, admiring the dreamlike sunset together.
"I haven't seen my hands for a long time," Zhou Zhou raised his hand high, looked at the sunlight leaking from between his fingers, and admired his face: "It's so beautiful!"
"And whose hand did you see before?" asked Faceless in confusion.
"Big sister's. ”
"Nikita?"
"Yes. ”
"What is her relationship with you, why do you call her big sister, where is your hand?"
“...... You have too many questions," Zhou Zhou took back his hand raised in mid-air, glanced at the little girl named Zhu Zhu with dissatisfaction, hesitated for a few seconds, and replied seriously: "Mom asked me to call her sister, saying that she could take me to live." But the world is so bad that we can't both live, so we have to live together in the end. ”
It sounds like a riddle, or the divination of some crappy soothsayer.
Surprisingly, Faceless understood.
"I borrowed the molt of a snake before, and it didn't want to die, and the molt tormented me for a long time. Faceless quickly found a topic of empathy with Zhou Zhou, and said, half-complaining, half-showing: "So I honestly follow its obsession as a pet until it dies contentedly...... Are you an obsession right now?"
"What is obsession?" Zhou Zhou was not old enough to understand this difficult word.
Faceless suddenly got a little stuck.
It has not undergone a systematic magical education during its long disguise career, so it is difficult to describe the term in concise and powerful sentences like in textbooks.
But it can be vaguely portrayed according to its own understanding.
"Obsession is what we hold on to, such as ghouls' attachment to corpses, vampires' thirst for blood, and demons chasing wizards. It opened its arms, and its crystal clear red eyes shimmered with a color called longing: "...... The captain said that the stronger the obsession, the farther we can go in history. ”
"Sounds like a good thing, but why do you think I'm an obsession?"
"Because you're alive. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Zhou was silent for a long time. The giants of the ancient geaters who sat around them snored boredly, a few Shatac birds flew tired and landed in the grass, and the ancestors fell asleep and woke up and fell back to sleep.
"Perhaps," the little witch finally spoke again, her voice tinged with melancholy, but without much resentment, "Actually, I don't know if I'm alive or dead. I have the impression that I am already dead...... I was still very uncomfortable when I died. ”
"Why is it uncomfortable?" asked Faceless curiously.
The little witch fell into a long silence again.
Got a previous experience? Faceless quickly diverted attention? Grab a well-proportioned Zugo and let it be your model? Then pick those slender blades of grass and goose-yellow flowers around you? Knitted a beautiful green dress for the Zuge model to try on.
Until the long skirt is braided? It realized that it was chatting with Zhou Zhou, and quickly looked back.
But I saw Nikita's tall figure sitting in Zhou Zhou's original position? Holding your knees? His eyes looked indifferently into the distance. Faceless was startled by the sudden appearance of the figure.
"You...... Are you awake?" it frantically retracted its grass-green dress and kicked the model back into the ranks of its ancestors.
Nikita gave it a faint look.
"Zhou Zhou was eaten by me," she described in a calm voice, a terrible fact: "When she was still alive, I ate it little by little." So she was very uncomfortable when she died. ”
Faceless though claims to be a demon? But never before has such a terrible thing ever been done.
Opposite? Because of its long-term stay in the world of wizards, its values are greatly influenced by traditional wizards. So after hearing the banshee's description, it couldn't help but shudder.
"Then ...... she now" Thinking of the figure that was a little smaller than himself, Faceless couldn't help but ask timidly in a low voice.
Nikita stood up and looked around.
The giants of the ancient leather have been awakened from their sleep? Rubbing saliva and a low growl in the throat, the Shahtaq flock takes off again? A deep cloud converged in midair, ghouls ran off into the distance, acting as scouts, and the ancestral tribes once again lined up? Pick up the light car.
"This is a dream," Nikita sighed softly, "Dreams and reality? Unreal vs. real? Existential and non-existent? It's all here. One thing you're right is that she's an obsession. ”
"It's just that she's my obsession. ”
"I stole fragments from the Bible, put an old, eccentric cloak on my naked wickedness, disguised myself as a saint, but in reality I was playing the role of a devil. ①”
"The devil will be nostalgic, but he will not repent. ”
......
......
"The dream realm is the closest place to everyone's sea of consciousness in countless dimensions. So here you can see the deepest traces of everyone's heart. ”
Xiao Xiao sat in the main seat of the pumpkin cart and chatted with the two young wizards in the secondary seat: "For example, your tail and ears, the blue skin of the fat man, etc., these are all the embodiment of the inner projection in the fantasy dream...... It is said that some beings with two souls will turn into a pair of twins after falling into the illusion of dreams, and this is the reason. ”
Jiang Yu listened with relish.
Zheng Qing felt a little bored.
Although it was also his first time riding the pumpkin cart, he didn't have many special feelings. He didn't think the pumpkin cart was much different from what it felt when he was sitting in other cars, horse-drawn carriages, or even airplanes and ships.
The sound of wheels humming and turning is in your ears, and the street scene is speeding by outside the window. The small orange lamp hung by the window, swaying left and right with the swing of the body. Through the sweet pumpkin walls, you can clearly hear the sound of the cat driver shaking his whip and cursing the Zugotha.
"This is indeed a city that loves cats," Zheng Qing said to Jiang Yu in the pumpkin carriage, looking at the street signs that were flying by outside the car window, "So far, every street I have seen and heard is named after a cat species. ”
Xiao Xiao also left his theories and returned to reality.
"It's about the head of the Usa Council," he said, rediscovering a way to show off his knowledge: "It is said that he once famously said in the council, 'In this world, only time, beauty and cats can live up to it,' so the council voted unanimously to approve the new street name." ”
