Chapter 138: The Fear of Following

Esther stared nervously at the black-haired youth opposite, she didn't even have a weapon to defend herself, and the wooden gun had already been thrown out.

Run? She didn't even have the confidence to run away.

Superficial negotiations first? He seemed to be jealous of the "Zoya" in my mind, so he never directly stole any ideas, did not even try to parasitize me, if he really wanted to fight, then I would steal my own thoughts and let "Zoya" take over! According to what Xiao Qi said, this place is already far away from Beckland anyway, so it doesn't matter if things get big......

Many of Esther's thoughts crossed her mind, and she took a deep breath and looked back at the smiling young man opposite: "Are you indeed Amun?" ”

"Of course, we're all Amun," the young man clasped the hard-shelled fruit on his hand with his knuckles, "and if someone says no, they're really cheating on you." ”

His gaze turned to the white-eyed raven above Esther's head.

The raven immediately bowed down and whispered to Esther, "Don't believe Him, He is dividing us!" ”

Of course, Esther noticed the pronoun of the crow's words, and the tension in her heart rose several degrees, her heartbeat became more and more intense, and the soles of her feet subconsciously stepped back, but she barely maintained her composure on her face:

"No, Xiao Qi is Xiao Qi, it's different."

The white-eyed crow lying on top of Esther's head suddenly widened slightly, and then showed a look of surprise, and where Esther couldn't see, a trace of alarm crossed its black glass bead-like eyes.

The crow sensed a latent shift in his cognition and quickly adjusted it back. This is the most special anchoring ability of "Zoya" - because he has such a strong belief, "fate" itself will be distorted, and the stronger and clearer his perception of the other, the stronger the degree of influence of the other party will be over time.

I'm afraid it's hard for the angels to detect such a specialness, let alone a clone in a state of circular sealing, and it is easy to be guided by her to deviate from the body.

Even if the other clones are somewhat sensitive, it is difficult to be vigilant enough, and then quickly forget about this matter in the fate that "Zoya" is difficult to maintain.

Therefore, the relevant news has not been informed of the nature of God's Forsaken Lands......

The young man on the opposite side didn't rush to say anything, but waited for the next move of the white-eyed crow. Seeing what the crow was thinking, he threw the fruit out of his hand and let it roll across the sand and stop right in front of Esther.

The other party's action made Esther take two steps back and avoid the fruit: "What do you want?" ”

The young man straightened his monocle: "It depends on what you can give me, but have you done it to the Lord?" Strictly speaking, you're not even a 'thief', you're just accommodating extraordinary traits that belong to someone else. ”

His smile was unbridled and joyful, as if he was not dismantling the disguise of the person on the other side, but discussing how beautiful the beach and blue sky were: "Without Him in your mind, of course you are nothing." ”

"I'd rather not have 'Zoya'! I'm just a normal person, and I have no idea why I'm here! ”

Esther didn't know where the anger in her heart came from, she shouldn't have been so emotional, she should have been more cautious and careful in facing this "angel king", but she couldn't control this emotion, instead of putting aside her reason and getting angry.

The young man glanced at the crow above Esther's head and nodded in distress: "Okay, I can see your determination, so how about we play a game?" ”

Game?

The crow slapped the top of Esther's head with its wings: "Beware of deceit! ”

Esther whispered back, "I know, He had bad intentions, how could there be such a good thing......"

Then she asked the young man on the other side in a loud voice: "I won't promise you easily!" ”

Hearing the implicit "talk about conditions" in Esther's words, the young man snorted lightly: "Since it is a game, there will naturally be rewards and punishments. I'll hide four things on the island, and you'll have four days to find them. On the fourth day, before the sun sets, you have to deliver them to 'me' and the game is over. If you can meet this condition, of course I'll send you back to Beckland, and maybe even an extraordinary item that is more suitable for the 'Zoya' path, how about it?" ”

Esther's eyes lit up, but she would not be easily carried away by this desire, she didn't believe that the other party would easily let go of herself and Xiao Qi: "Such a simple rule? ”

"It's about punishment," the young man's smile deepened, "and if you can't find it, I'll take it from you every night." ”

Esther's right eyelid jumped: "My thing? ”

"Let me warn you, it could be anything, and don't say I didn't understand it when the time comes."

The young man's tone was very innocent, with a little complaint and a playful and ridiculous tone, just like Xiao Qi.

"Do I have the option of not participating in this game?"

The young man's smile deepened: "Of course—no. I can't hurt your life, because I don't want to awaken the sleeping power in you directly, and if you're awake after the fourth night, you'll be free. ”

The raven above Esther's head suddenly spoke, "We're on some island in the south, aren't we?" ”

"Yes, this is an uninhabited island west of Baiam." The young man casually pointed in a direction, "If you swim all the way down there, you might be able to find someone, but it will take many days and nights." ”

Esther didn't reply immediately, she keenly caught the young man's deliberate bite on the word, "sober".

Why is sobriety also a condition for freedom? Does this have to do with what the youth are trying to steal?

Even if she didn't want to participate, she didn't have a choice.

"I see."

"Then the game starts tomorrow, and you can move freely." After the young man finished speaking, he leisurely walked into the pristine woods with his hands behind his back, and he had no intention of leaving behind.

This made Esther breathe a sigh of relief, but soon she felt depressed again: "What a completely unreasonable game......"

"How unreasonable?" The crow stood up on top of her head and jumped twice, "Isn't that good?" At least you still have a little hope. ”

"That's what is a game!"

He's called it abuse! No morality at all, bah! Esther added these two sentences viciously in her heart.

Esther took two steps forward and picked up the fruit that was somewhat similar to a coconut: "Xiao Qi, why didn't you leave at that time?" As a result, I am still being affected by me, and I have arrived on such a deserted island. ”

The crow was silent for a moment and chuckled twice: "Haha, I'm also curious about the answer to this question. ”

The sun finally fell below the horizon, and a crimson moon rose in the sky, and Esther glanced at it, deeply tired.

Her eyes turned to the scarlet sea, and she decided that she would try to catch two fish, crabs or razor clams, and there were many such little things on the beach, she had seen them before.

If only there was a fellow's ignition skill......

——

The night was getting darker and darker, and the starlight in the inky sky was not the same as in her memory, and Esther didn't have the leisure to watch the stars and admire the moon on the waves.

She piled the stones in a circle on the dry sand, with a few branches piled up inside, and next to it lay a relatively intact empty shell, as well as a few fragments. According to Xiao Qi, the kind of fruit is called "Teyana", and Esther thinks it should be convenient to use it to cook things, so she tries to keep the shape of the second fruit intact.

She didn't have a match on her, but she still had something to use in her satchel, and after removing a piece of the iron chime, Esther put the cotton in the box under the iron sheet, then grabbed a gray-black stone with a rough surface and struck it hard.

Luck favored her, and after an unknown number of blows, a spark burst out and set the piece of cotton on fire, and Esther hastened to shove it to the branch, and soon a flickering fire lit up on the sand.

"Whew...... It actually worked. ”

Esther breathed a sigh of relief and dragged the Teyana shell over, where there were two dead fish, as well as a few shells that she had been lucky enough to dig up, which had been left on the beach at low tide.

She had a little leftover of Teyana's juice to cook as a soup base, and the scales were simply scraped with iron sheets, gutted and treated with the simplest treatment.

The white-eyed crow had been following her, sitting on top of Esther's head most of the time, amusefully watching her busy.

The teyana shell was placed very close to the fire, and the juice left inside gradually rolled out bubbles, getting cloudier and cloudier from boiling something else.

"Is it necessary?" It asked Esther, "Under such conditions, you can give up eating." ”

Esther used another piece of coconut shell to play with the fish's hand, and said softly, "You get off my head, if I catch it again, I'll really lose my hair." ”

The crow was noncommittal, flew to the spare branches next to her, and shook his feathers: "What are you thinking?" ”

"I was thinking, something doesn't seem right with you."

"That's a cold accusation, are you suspicious of me?"

Esther poked the fish twice, and seemed to be waiting intently for her dinner, when two finger-long fish were softening in the tumbling Teyana soup, and were poked into several pieces by Ester, and the shells of the shellfish were opened, revealing the tender flesh inside, which made the soup smell fishy, but it didn't smell very good.

The crow crouched quietly beside it, its dark eyes full of interest.

Esther's face was lit by the firelight, and it was uncertain: "I sorted out what happened to this matter, you ......"

She stopped halfway through her sentence.

The white-eyed crow shook his head and spat out those two sentences in Chinese: [Today's people don't see the ancient times and months, and this month used to be like the ancients.] ]

This ancient poem is about to become the code of Xiao Qi's connection with her, which makes Esther's eyes gradually light up, but she didn't speak, just smiled.

The crow shook his head amusedly: "Last year, you even gave a little cake to me in the form of a time worm, and you also painted black crows on it, didn't you?" ”

A smile appeared in its half-narrowed dark eyes, and it looked extremely sincere:

"Thank you."

Esther smiled back, and her mood immediately improved, and she lowered her eyes to the tumbling fish heads in Teyana's shell, scooped them out and threw them into the fire.

The flames didn't care, devouring anything that came into their arms.
