CHAPTER XLIV
When the stars were shining at night, we were standing on the cold street, the little girl came to confront us alone, and the little girl protected us tightly behind her, Yuan Ziyi smiled and didn't seem to care.
"Please don't hurt Tanabata, he's very important to me. The girl said softly.
Yuan Ziyi walked around to her and quipped, "Those who have died are dead after all, and there is a price to live desperately." ”
"That's my business, and it has nothing to do with you, please consider what I say, otherwise it won't do you any good. Then the girl departed with a heavy back, resolutely leaving no room for it.
"You all know this girl, right?, who is she?" I asked, pointing to the girl, Xiao Ye and Yuan Ziyi.
Yuan Ziyi said lightly, "Ax, the daughter of hell, an old friend, isn't it?"
"Daughter of Hell?"
"It's extremely irrational to fight it at night, and I'm looking forward to a good tomorrow. With that, Yuan Ziyi put his hands behind his head and whistled back to his residence. I didn't say much, and I went back with it.
Xiaobai is waiting for news from us, he is injured and cannot fight under any circumstances. Kalo was asleep, completely unaware of what was happening. I told Xiaobai that it was okay and that he should rest.
Yuan Ziyi jumped on the bed, slept beautifully under the quilt, and whispered to Xiaoye to come along. Xiao Ye glanced at him in disgust, conjured a bed surrounded by vines, and threw Yuan Ziyi up.
"What, it hurts. Yuan Ziyi muttered.
"You are a god, it doesn't matter if you sleep on the ground. ”
"Who said that I am a god, the current situation is very chaotic, we can only protect ourselves, but then you are interested in the godhood?"
"No, if you talk again, you'll go out. ”
"Hmph~"
Late at night, I couldn't sleep at ease, and I had a nightmare in a daze, dreaming that there was a small snake wrapped around my neck, which was highly poisonous and cold-blooded, and could kill me at any time. When I woke up, I found that Xiao Ye and Yuan Ziyi were beside me and watching me. Xiao was also sweating profusely, and Yuan Ziyi's indifferent look was completely gone.
"Why don't you sleep?" I asked.
Yuan Ziyi smiled slightly and shook his head, "It's okay, I want to set up an enchantment, I'm afraid that woman will sneak attack." ”
"Oh, let's sleep. Turning over, I continued to fall asleep in a blur.
At dawn the next day, it was a little dark and I couldn't see the sun. Xiao Ye and Yuan Ziyi went nowhere, and there were some roasted sweet potatoes on the table, and a note not to let us wander around.
Liro is still sleeping, and if she doesn't turn over, I wonder if she's hanging up. Xiaobai didn't wake up, I took a baked sweet potato and went out, I seemed to be very disobedient.
I went to the morning market on the street, and searched all over the ancient city of Qiba, according to many people, the ancient city of Qiba is the best preserved and oldest ruins of the Ninth Continent, and at the same time, there are also a variety of mysterious forces hidden in the city to protect the ancient city of Qiba. The gardenias and heart flowers that grow in the Qiba Mountains are also worshiped as sacred objects, and are guarded by a blue dragon all year round, and no one can escape alive from the dragon's claws.
I found an old man, and seeing that he was kind and kind, I inquired about the mysterious power that existed in the name of curiosity and admiration.
The old man stroked his long beard, which was meaningful.
"The blood spirit, from the heart of the previous generation, can give life to any living being, with the power of gods and ghosts, this is the divine power of Qiba City. ”
I was slightly puzzled and asked him, "There is a question in the next life, who was the judge of the previous generation?"
"I forgot a little, but I just remembered her surname was Mana. It's been a long time ago, and the old farmer can't remember it clearly. ”
"Manayax?"
The old man shook his head and smiled without saying a word.
I said goodbye to the old man, who smiled at the door with a bamboo basket rocking chair and watched me walk away. My feeling tells me that the heart of Qiba City is two hundred years less than modern civilization, and maybe the people in it may not know what memories they want to keep.
Walking to the place I walked yesterday, I found the figure of Tanabata in a wooden house.
"Tanabata. "I called him.
What he was doing in his room, when he noticed me coming, he turned back happily, "Tianxin, why are you here, come in." ”
I walked in, and the wooden house was simple but beautifully decorated, surrounded by flowers and vine leaves. There was a pile of blades of grass on the wooden table, and when I looked closely, I saw that there were several sleeping little weasels wrapped in it.
"Are these weasels?" I asked Tanabata in surprise, "Are you going to eat?"
He used a bamboo tube to fill the water and laughed, "How is it possible, I eat vegetarian food, and I will bring these little ones back to take care of them when I see that they are pitiful." Saying that, he went to take care of those little guys again, and accidentally woke them up, and Qixi was busy feeding again, and the milk was spilled again, looking cute and silly.
"I don't understand, weasels are pests, if you like small animals, you can keep individuals. I said.
He smiled bitterly, "Tianxin, I don't like to raise talents, and we don't have the word breeding here, to a certain extent, we are the same kind." Their mothers were skinned alive by humans, and you humans are the pests. ”
I was surprised and momentarily speechless.
"Well, the weasel steals the crops. ”
"Give them space to live, who will bother you, and besides, they didn't kill you, did they?"
Completely speechless, I took the water and drank it down. I felt a deep reproach from other beings, even though I never intentionally killed any life, yet ...
Qixi pulled me, smiled, and grabbed my hair, "Okay, I didn't say you, I can see that Tianxin is a very good person." ”
I still didn't speak, only smiled apologetically and awkwardly.
"Hey, look at me. As he spoke, he whimpered a few times, and a pair of pointed ears came out of his hair again, shaking mischievously. I snorted and laughed.
Out of nowhere, an ugly duckling appeared, and he held it in the palm of his hand and handed it to me.
"Do you want to try to take care of a duckling?" he said with a smile.
"I can too. ”
Actually, I'm going to refuse, it's not that I don't raise it, I'm afraid that Liluo will go crazy and stew it if I don't pay attention. But the moment I received it from Tanabata I felt the preciousness of life, I didn't actually have to pay anything to live freely and happily, if I have the ability to do good, why refuse it?
"Oh yes, what are you looking for me for?" asked me.
"I... ”
"Oops, I've found you, Your Highness Qixi Festival. A cold voice came from outside the house. When I looked up, I saw a few big men with fierce faces, carrying long knives on their backs, and they were very unfriendly.
"I've been running away for so long, but I still can't avoid it. Tanabata sighed softly.
