Chapter Twenty-Three: Heart-to-Heart
Three parallel straight lines, about half a centimeter wide and five centimeters long, were the marks left on my left side of my face by a panther that should have been skinned and boiled into soup. This is neither big nor small, but it is enough to affect the wound of the first beauty of "The Divine Realm", which has been completely covered by a small square of white gauze and two crosses of vertical crossed tape. And I, I'm a turtledove, and now I look like a sick guy who has just had a dental operation.
Originally, Schilling could have healed this small wound with his healing skills very easily, and left my face intact, but considering Boggs's warning, I still declined Schilling's kindness. There is another important reason that I did not say. A woman, a Peugeot beauty, let a man, a man with a wicked smile, touch his face with one hand, if it spreads, how will I be mixed in the rivers and lakes in the future? Besides, for Schilling, I naturally don't have the strength to kill him and put an end to the spread of the news.
"Turtledove, don't be impulsive. The purpose of our trip is ...... "At this time, Schilling was painstakingly taking the words I had used to advise him as they were, and told me to abandon the way I came and go back to find the plan of revenge of the black panther monsters.
Actually, I'm just saying, go back and fight with those monsters, and add some flowers and plants to the right face, that's still an optimistic result, maybe the little life is over directly, and it's really worth the loss.
There are no time benchmarks such as the sun and moon in the sky above Alcatraz, so how much time has passed since entering Alcatraz, and when it is now, Schilling and I are all mentally uncountable. However, after walking a little way, the flat lower abdomen suddenly felt a little hungry, and I thought it should be close to dusk.
It always feels weird to have a piece of dog skin plaster stuck to my face, and my eyes can't help but squint to glance at it to see if it has a tendency to fall off, but my eyes can't see much from this angle, and I really regret not carrying a small mirror with me like ordinary women.
Just when my eyes were glancing and glancing but I couldn't catch anything, Schilling took out a small oval silver mirror the size of a palm from his bag and handed it to me: "This, I'm useless, give it to you." ”
I took the mirror, looked at myself through the reflection, and found that the little plaster did not have any abnormal movements, and it did not affect much beauty, so I generously stuffed it into my bag. However, I wondered, I don't carry such a thing with a woman, how can a big man carry it with him?
I fixed my puzzled gaze on Schilling's body, and before I could start scanning my whole body, Schilling immediately replied in a knowing way to dispel my strange thoughts: "It was Celine who temporarily put me here." She doesn't like to carry too many things. ”
When I heard the name Celine, I suddenly became interested. As soon as I think of this domineering beauty, I can't help but ask what is her relationship with Schilling, brother and sister, couple? Curiosity can kill cats, cats only have nine lives, and I have infinite lives in the net, so I decided to take this opportunity today to interrogate Schilling.
"Hey, Schilling, I've always had a question in my mind, can I ask you?" I tried to get as close as I could to Schilling with a pleasant face.
"What's the doubt?" I don't know if I'm suddenly too enthusiastic, but when Schilling saw me sticking to it, he moved back a little more guardedly.
actually asked for a face, I pulled down the old face, and he didn't buy it, but for the sake of the barbarian's own curiosity, I could only continue to condescend. I turned around the corner and asked, "Why haven't you seen Celine lately?" Weren't you inseparable before? ”
"Oh, Celine." Schilling seemed relieved to see that I didn't seem to be playing a conspiracy, "Since the [Seven Star Society] was disbanded, she hasn't played much. She also has a lot of things to deal with in her real life, and anyway, the test of "Divinity" is coming to an end, so she decides to simply wait until it is officially open in the future and come back to play. ”
"Oh." It turned out to be AFK. I nodded in understanding, and then asked, "You know each other in real life, right?" You seem to know a lot about her? ”
"Actually, I don't know each other very well." Schilling's face was a little stunned, "She and I can only be regarded as college classmates. ”
"Are you just college classmates?" It's a bit of a doorway, and my curiosity is even heavier. College is a great place to be. I think I didn't have a thousand but eight hundred girls in college. College is a small society, and girls who have just graduated from middle school are especially easy to deceive.
"Relatively good college classmates." Schilling's words were a bit ambiguous, and I was very anxious as a listener. But I can't ask too bluntly, the fish is not easy to take the bait.
I pondered the words for a moment, and then carefully tapped on the side: "I think Celine seems to be very interesting to you, you didn't take the opportunity to spoil other people's yellow flower girls." ”
"Who spoiled the yellow flower girl? Besides, she is not a yellow flower girl. Schilling said very impulsively, and then seemed to realize something, and then saw my cunning eyes looking at him, as if he understood that he had fallen into my trap, he stood up directly and patted the dust on his buttocks, and changed the subject a little angrily, "It's not too early, let's hurry up and get on the road." I think there's still a long way to go. ”
"Oh, what's the hurry. Sit down a little longer and talk about the next day. "I finally got something, and the iceberg showed a small sharp corner, how can I give up halfway? I squinted at Schilling and said, "The question about Celine not being a yellow flower girl has been explained clearly, and it's not too late for us to hit the road again." ”
"You want to know, you just have to ask her yourself." Schilling frowned, and then suddenly thought of something, his brows suddenly stretched, and he smiled and asked me, "Icardove, why are you suddenly so interested in Celine?" Or are you using Celine's guise to beat my idea? ”
"What am I doing with your idea?" I was suddenly countered by him, and I felt a little abrupt, and I suddenly disrupted the steps.
The smile on Schilling's face looked a little bad: "Ikardove, we are all adults, and it is normal for a lonely man and a widow to have some thoughts in this wilderness. Don't be embarrassed, I'm used to your straightforward style, so I don't have to beat around the bush. Which successful man doesn't have three wives and four concubines, and you don't have to care about Celine's existence. That's all in the past, and "The Divine Realm" is coming to an end. By the time it officially opens, we may be strangers again. Why don't we take advantage of these last few days to make good memories for each other? ”
Schilling's face had completely betrayed his inner thoughts, and even a fool could see that he was trying to change from passive to active purely verbally, which was a purely futile struggle. I told him to stop cooking with a word. I replied, "Do you mean we can find a room at the right time?" ”
Schilling stopped talking, and I winked at him as if I were innocent.
After being silent for a long time, Schilling took the initiative to admit defeat: "Turtledove, don't make fun of me, you know I don't mean that at all." ”
He turned silently, one hand gently holding the trunk of the big tree beside him, leaving me with a thin and straight back. He said slowly: "Turtledove, you may not know how difficult it is to make one or two real friends in this world full of intrigue. Everyone wears a mask of hypocrisy, says things against their will, and sits on things that can be flattered. I thought that in the game, I could throw everything away from the shackles of real life and be my true self, but unfortunately it backfired, although the game was out of reality, but the people in the game were real. The game is just a copy of the real world. Friends is still a term of luxury. ”
I don't know why he suddenly became so compassionate and made such a philosophical complaint. Since I am the captain of the team, and it is also one of my responsibilities to make a cameo appearance as a big sister, I reluctantly enlightened him: "Actually, friends are a mutual process. If you can't put your mind right, put down the shelf, put your heart in your heart, and simply wait for the other party to throw an olive branch, then there is basically no hope. That's a passive attitude. It's like the interaction between men and women, even if both parties have a good impression of each other, but if both parties are always unwilling to speak first, unless there is really the fairy Yue Lao, they can only look at each other and not stay together even if the sea is dry. I don't know if this metaphor is appropriate, anyway, I have one meaning, you must take the initiative, and hope that what others want to do, it is better to do it yourself, so that it is a positive life. ”
"It's a pity that some things are innate, such as status, family background, etc., like birthmarks, which you can't get rid of as soon as you are born." Schilling sighed faintly.
I just laughed, there is something in this world that I really can't let go, and the worth of hundreds of millions is not something that I just threw away casually. I replied earnestly: "Everything is in the hearts of people, and if you are determined to give up, there is nothing in this world that can bind you." ”
Schilling was silent for a moment, then turned back and smiled at me, "Thank you, Turtledove. It's nice to have a friend like you. ”
This smile seems to me to have a little bit of a woman's charm, and my spine can't help but chill, it's because I have done too much time for my own shemales, and I look at other men's have a little skew. I hurriedly drew a line with him: "Don't say it so ambiguously, I'm just treating you as one of my subordinates, and I haven't reached the role of a friend yet." Don't exalt yourself. ”
Schilling's smile remained the same: "Okay, the subordinates will be the subordinates." I'm glad to have a boss like you. ”
I heard you right, the number one person in "The Divine Realm" was subdued by me like this? I blinked vigorously, tapped my head, and after making sure I wasn't dreaming, I quickly took out a piece of parchment and a quill from my bag and handed it to Schilling.
Schilling looked at me in surprise: "What are you doing here?" ”
"At XX hours and XX minutes on the XX day of the XX year of the "Divine Realm", the first master of the "Divine Realm" and the former head of the first society of the "Divine Realm", Paladin Schillingan, is considered the little brother of the turtledove. Hereby as evidence. Party A: Turtledove. Signed, sealed. Party B: Schilling. Signature (vacancy), seal (vacancy) ......"
Schilling stared at the piece of paper numbly for a long time, without saying a word. I urged him in a more unusual way: "Schilling, this piece of paper has been lying in my bag for almost half a year, and today I can finally take it out and meet people." In order to witness our great friendship, please sign it quickly. ”
Schilling looked at me silently, and suddenly pinched the quill in his hand into two pieces, then crumpled the parchment into a ball, and threw it directly at me.
"Turtledove, you bastard bastard, I owe you so much to you......"
