Chapter 285: Mystery
Medical techniques are not really able to bring people back to life, but they can work wonders in a short period of time. Within a few minutes of the person's death, if Wuqi's medical skills are timely enough, and the rescued person died of his injuries, then he can successfully pull the person back from the ghost gate.
Just like when he saved Nakorulu, Wuqi did not hesitate to cast a spell to heal Chloyd's injuries. Soon, just ten minutes later, Chloyd's heart was beating again, and no wonder withdrew his medical technique, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and quietly waited for Chloyd's eyes to open his eyes a second time.
"Is this hell?" Chloyd asked suspiciously, opening his eyes, and then, in disbelief, he got up and glanced around.
After one glance, without any explanation, he immediately understood that he was not dead, and that he was saved by Wuqi. Because after recovering his memory, he clearly remembered that Wuqi had saved himself once with that strange exercise, but he didn't want to believe that he could still come back from the dead even though he was already dead.
A strange glint gradually appeared in Chloyd's eyes, but after a while, his gaze was replaced by a thick sadness, and he didn't talk to Wuqi, and suddenly grabbed the piece of ground next to him that was still stained with a trace of blood, and the fragment that had just been pulled out by Wuqi stabbed him into the chest again, and his determination to commit suicide was not only not weakened, but even worse than before.
Wuqi just wanted to say something, but before he could say anything, he was suddenly startled by Chloyd's movements, and in a panic in his heart, he hurriedly stretched out his right hand, which had been reconnected by him, and after drawing an afterimage in the air, he directly crossed the sword blade fragment and blocked Chloyd's chest.
He knew that his strength was far inferior to Chloyd's, and deadlifting would definitely not work, so he had to choose this method.
"Poof!" The sharp blade fragment pierced deep into Wuqi's palm, instantly piercing Wuqi's palm and then stabbing into Chloyd's chest. However, due to the blocking of Wuqi's palm, his strength was slowed down a lot, so the fragment pierced into Chloyd's chest only just scratched a little epidermis, and did not hurt his heart, let alone shed blood.
The heart-tearing stinging pain was like a tide, and wave after wave hit Wuqi's mind, making him suddenly can't help but tremble his palms, but he gritted his teeth and didn't say a word. He ignored the fact that the blood kept flowing out of the wound like a trickle, but after grinning in pain for a while, he looked at Chloyd with burning eyes and asked angrily, "What do you want to do?"
Chloyd looked at Wuqi in a daze, although his face was expressionless, but his heart was moved by Wuqi's actions again.
A friend is willing to save himself at all costs, and he does not hesitate to block the attack for himself, although it is a suicide, the force he uses to commit suicide is very small, and the weapon is just a small fragment of a sword blade. But these are not the point, Wuqi did not hesitate to make a move just now, and did not hesitate to prevent himself from committing suicide with the serious injury of his palm being pierced by fragments.
Chloyd's death is the result, but it doesn't matter, what matters is Wuqi's willingness to do whatever it takes to fight for his friend, and his willingness to sacrifice his will without hesitation for his friend. These are the things that really moved Chloyd.
However, he is a person with a natural indifferent personality, and it is his nature to be cold on the outside and hot on the inside. So he didn't show any emotion, just calmly looked at Wuqi's palm that was pierced by the fragments of the blade, his eyes showed a thick sadness, and said, "Let me die." I can't forgive myself. ”
"Nope. Wuqi shook his head calmly, looked at Chloyd sincerely, and said stubbornly: "I won't let you die." As long as I'm here, you can't die. ”
"For what?" Chloyd's gaze suddenly flashed with puzzlement, and he asked.
"Because you've already died once. The original Chloyd is dead. You are now another Chloyd, and it is I who have given you new life. Everything in the past is only your last life, so your current life belongs to me. If I don't let you die, you can't die. Wuqi's gaze was very calm, and he said seriously.
Wuqi's words did not have any coercion, but Chloyd somehow, after listening to Wuqi's unreasonable words, and then looking at the other party's expressionless face, he had an indescribable sense of identity. It seems that what the other party says is the truth at this moment, and he can only believe it, not doubt it. ,
At this moment, he even suddenly had a feeling, as if the person standing in front of him was not the familiar young man in his impression, but a super strong man whose strength had reached the highest level, the peak of the Holy Domain, and what he said, it seemed that if he was not immediately convinced, he would be killed by the other party in an instant.
It's weird.
Obviously, Chloyd even had the intention of committing suicide, but after he and Wuqi looked at each other, he suddenly had a feeling of fear in his heart, and he actually retreated involuntarily, and then inexplicably felt a chill. All this is because of Wuqi's eyes that were emitting light blue light at this time, at this moment, he did not enter the state of elemental awakening, but subconsciously entered the state of mind of Mingjing to stop water.
Chloyd hesitated for a moment, and under the gaze of the Strange Mirror Stopping the Water Mood, he finally nodded slowly and said, "It does make some sense. So, I really can't die right now?"
"Yes. You have to remember that you are no longer the same person you used to be. The former you are dead, and now you are reborn. So, you have to face a new life. Forget the past and look to the future. Seeing that Chloyd's expression gradually showed signs of loosening, Wuqi's eyes lit up, and he said with a little comfort in his heart.
Chloyd nodded slowly again, but then he shook his head again, with a look of hesitation on his face, and said, "No. I'm obviously still the young master of the Chloe family. What's the difference between this and what it used to ......be? It's impossible to forget all about the past, those images are so impressive to me.
If I really listen to you and treat everything in the past as if it didn't happen, then what's the difference between me and a scoundrel? No. I can't forget those memories that are deep in my bones. Even if I can forget it for a while during the day, they will turn into nightmares at night to remind me. No, no, no...... I can't do ......."
As he spoke, Chloyd's gradually calm expression was replaced by more and more sadness, and he shook his head faster and faster, and the gaze in his eyes became more and more self-reproachful, and he was about to commit suicide again in the great guilt that he had not been able to forgive himself.
Wuqi's eyes suddenly showed a look of worry, he stopped talking nonsense, and slapped his left hand directly on Chloyd's face, "Smack!" Seeing that Chloyd's gaze suddenly appeared dull for a moment, Wuqi hurriedly seized the opportunity of this moment and further persuaded: "Who said that there is no change? Everything has changed! You are no longer the young master of the Chloe family!"
The Chloe family is long gone. Where else will you be a young master? Also, the weapons you are using have been completely damaged.
You are still the same Chloyd as before, and you are a completely different new life than before. Do you understand? You wouldn't be standing here talking to me without me, all of this is given to you by me. So, you must listen to my orders and live well. I don't allow you to die, you can't die. Otherwise, you're trying to betray me. ”
In the first part of these words, Chloyd didn't have any reaction when he heard it, and even disdained it at all, but after he heard the word "betrayal", his heart suddenly seemed to explode like a spring thunder, and with a "boom", his body seemed to be really struck by lightning, and he was suddenly shocked.
The knot in my heart that has never been able to be untied, almost at the moment when the other party exited the word "betrayal", it was like encountering a cloud of wind, and it instantly dissolved and dissipated into the air.
Yes, whether I am the current Chloyd or the former Chloyd, my life is indeed saved by slugs. My current life is his, and he has the power to control my life and death. He had already told me that I was not allowed to commit suicide, and that if I committed suicide because I could not face the sins of my family, it would be tantamount to betraying the will of the slug.
Who am I, Chloyd? a former genius, a proud son of heaven. Now even if he has been reduced to a demon who kills people without blinking. But I'm at least a man of my word.
I have betrayed my family once, and that betrayal cost the lives of all my loved ones. Although it was not my intention to betray, I did make an unforgivable mistake. If I betray again, I won't ...... I can't betray anymore. I will not betray again!
"I got it. After a long silence, Chloyd's eyes finally lit up and he nodded. ,
Once the knot in his heart was untied, his mood slowly returned to normal, although he still felt guilty for the big mistakes he had made before, but at least he would no longer treat himself in such an extreme way as suicide, but chose to confess once a day This relatively normal way to treat himself well.
Father, brother, and sister. Please give me a little more time. I know that you will not forgive me no matter what. However, my current life is no longer my own. Please wait a little longer, and when I give back this life to the slug, I will come and apologize to you.
After combing his thoughts well, Chloyd took a deep breath slowly, and after the fresh air entered his lungs, he suddenly had a feeling of rebirth, and a faint smile involuntarily passed on his face, which was a smile full of gratitude for the new life, from the heart, natural and unpretentious.
When Nacolulu saw the faint smile on Chloyd's face, her heart that had just been calm jumped uncontrollably, and at this moment, as if she had seen the most beautiful thing in this world, the "bang" heartbeat made her little face suddenly red.
Nakorulu suddenly turned her head shyly, turned her face to the side, and ran away to Hughes's side, no longer looking at him, and then once again set her eyes on the slug, which made him hate.
Wuqi's face was also smiling at this time, after he saw that Chloyd's expression had completely returned to normal, he was also happy for the other party from the bottom of his heart, and the smile was naturally revealed, at a glance, it was really much sunnier than Chloyd's light smile.
But this smile fell into Nakorulu's eyes, but once again it seemed to be distorted into a lewd evil smile, which made her feel a burst of disdain in her heart, and she subconsciously "puffed" twice. Xiaobai found Nakolulu's contemptuous gaze, and it immediately let out two angry roars for Wuqi and indignantly, but unfortunately this sound fell on Nakolulu's ears, but it became two extremely pleasant cat meows, and it was immediately depressed in its heart.
When Xius saw Nakorulu and Xiaobai's strange behavior, he only felt confused and inexplicable. But when he found out that Nakorulu and Xiaobai had started to quarrel with each other that they didn't understand, an indescribable look suddenly appeared on his face, and he finally had to shake his head with a headache.
"Lao De, do you have a place to go now? if not, come with us. I can let you join our team. Wuqi asked with a smile.
"Team?" Chloyd pointed to Hugh and Nakolulu, who were not far behind Wuqi, and frowned slightly, and asked, "Just the three of you?"
Wuqi smiled mysteriously, and then opened his mouth to let out a cat meow, "Meow." Xiaobai, who was arguing with Na Ke Lulu, suddenly became clever, and stood on Wuqi's shoulders in a few vertical jumps. Wuqi pointed at Xiaobai and explained with a smile: "There is also it." ”
"Okay. Chloyd nodded, but after a moment of silence, he suddenly changed his words and whispered, "But." In the future, I will have to wronged you, the head of the regiment. I'm now at the limit of what my body can handle. Although it can still help you now, it is likely to hinder the team in the future. I hope you don't dislike me then. ”
These were Chloyd's words, he really didn't have much confidence in himself, after all, the once proud son of heaven no longer existed. Now this body of his own, he can only cultivate to the first level of advanced cultivators, and if he tries to refine again, he will only end up with a serious injury to his body again, and his strength will fall to the next realm.
In this regard, Chloyd is very experienced. However, what he didn't expect was that after listening to his words, Wuqi not only did not dislike himself because of this, but instead smiled, patted himself on the shoulder, and said, "Old De! Didn't I already say it all?
You've been given a new lease of life now, and all the old wounds in your body have been healed of me. Believe it or not, you can feel it for yourself now. ”
Chloyd couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, his eyes instantly showed a half-believing look, and he subconsciously used the breath to look inwardly to carefully examine the few old wounds in his body that had not healed for a long time, and as time passed, the more he looked at him, the brighter his eyes became.
Only a few seconds later, Chloyd's eyes suddenly burst into dazzling brilliance like two suns, and he looked at Wuqi gratefully, nodded heavily, and said in a low voice, "Xie Lu Xie." ”,
Wuqi's gaze was still calm, but no matter how calm he was at this time, he couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and the corners of his mouth were raised, and finally a heartfelt smile was revealed.
But in the blink of an eye, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and suddenly looked at Chloyd nervously, and said softly, "That's right." You just made a mistake. I'm not the head of the regiment, I'm just a deputy. I decided to let you join the group. The head of the regiment is the girl next to the elf clansman, I treat her as a sister, and you will let her do as much as I do in the future. Do you know how to do it?"
When Chloyd saw that Wuqi seemed to be afraid of Nakorulu, he was suddenly dumbfounded, and the look on his face suddenly became extremely strange, and he wanted to laugh but couldn't. He didn't understand how Wuqi had an extra sister for no reason, and the official rank was even bigger than Wuqi, but he didn't care about these either.
Seeing Wuqi's funny expression again, Chloyd's heart couldn't help but rise with an inexplicable excitement, as if he had returned to the time when he and Wuqi got along happily in the swordsmanship academy a few years ago, and once again deeply felt the feeling of being wrapped in friendship, which was warm and made him very comfortable.
"Good. After a moment, Chloyd nodded silently.
"You are welcome to add ......"
A bright smile suddenly appeared on Wuqi's face and he stretched out his palm, but at this moment, Chloyd did not stretch out his hand, but slowly shook his head, interrupted Wuqi's words of welcome, and said, "Wait a minute."
Now that I am going to start a new life to join you, I will have to leave behind a little more of the past. I don't want you to be kept in the dark by me, and before I join you, I have to tell you everything, that's my style. ”
"Good. Say it, then. Wuqi nodded lightly and said with a smile.
Chloyd nodded slightly, and gradually, a thoughtful look appeared on his face, and while recalling, he said slowly: "You know most of the previous ones. But after I regained my memory, it was slightly different. The red-haired old man who claimed to be my master, hiding in a blood-red heavy sword, sealed part of my memory.
That's why I mistakenly think that the destruction of my family was caused by you. Of course, there's another reason why the phantom manipulated part of my sanity. Not only have I never seen the way the phantom manipulated my mind, but I have never heard of it, and the fact that the phantom can exist consciously makes me feel very weird.
But what's even weirder is that when I met the blood-red heavy sword. It all started half a year after you left the Sword Academy......"
After hearing Chloyd's recollections, he immediately showed an impatient expression, but after hearing the phantom of the red-haired old man, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he listened with great interest, and even the intention to interrupt Chloyd's thoughts at first made him dispelled.
However, at the same time, while listening, he began to think deeply in his heart.
Old red-haired man? How could I have forgotten such an important thing. What the hell is existence? Is it life? It's not like that. If the soul really exists, why have I only seen it since I was born?
And this red-haired old man's dress, why is it so weird? This kind of dress seems to be exactly the same as what ordinary people wear when filming costume dramas in the world? Could it be that he used to be an actor in the ordinary world? Isn't it? If it was just an ordinary person, it would be impossible to have the aura that only cultivators have.
The more Wuqi thought about it, the more he felt that the phantom of the red-haired old man brought him more and more questions, like a mystery that could never be solved, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it.
But he couldn't help but be driven by curiosity, and the more he listened to Chloyd's story, the more fascinated he became. Gradually, as Chloyd spoke more and more deeply, it was as if he had suddenly incarnated into Chloyd and returned to the time when he had just encountered the blood-red heavy sword, and relived Chloyd's memories with empathy.
