Chapter 12: The Oath of the Dark Horse
The red jeep continued to Nanjing. More than half an hour later, it stopped in a small town on the outskirts of Nanjing.
Shiratori Ling took the bruised Bai Maxiao to the town's hospital first, put a plaster cast on his index finger, and stitched a few stitches on the knife mark on his right cheek, this small hospital didn't even have anesthetics, he yelled in pain, and almost the dogs in the whole town followed suit.
He had been whipped in the face, which was now swollen like a pig's head, and the gauze attached to the knife made his head look bigger.
It was early in the morning when they came out of the hospital, and they opened a room in a hotel in the town, intending to rest here for the night and then leave for the next morning.
When I opened the room, I found that Bai Bird Ling didn't even have an ID card, but fortunately, the boss was an open-eyed person, so he didn't ask more after they paid double the room fee, but just looked at Bai Ma Xiao and muttered, "Such a beautiful little girl, why is it so heavy." ”
Fortunately, the room was a double room with two beds, which avoided the tragedy of Shiraba Shiro being injured and sleeping on the sofa.
Bai Mashi's face had just been drugged and couldn't take a bath, so he could only wipe his body with a hot towel, while Bai Toriao Ling took a comfortable bath, wrapped in a bath towel when he came out of the bathroom, holding a hair dryer in one hand, fiddling with his hair with the other, and with the shaking of his head, the bath towel was almost about to fall off, and Bai Mashio's whole body seemed to be burning.
She walked to the side of the bed, turned her back to Hakumashio and took off the bath towel, because there was a bed, Hakumashi could only see her back, and he couldn't stand it anymore because of the slender figure without a trace of variegation, and turned his head.
After a while, he heard her sitting on the bed, apparently dressed, and then turned around, and at this time she was wearing the same underwear she had changed in front of him yesterday - a white tank top and panties, and a faint pale green bra.
There are boys here, you can't pay attention to it! Bai Maxiao scolded secretly, thinking to himself, I can't beat her, even if I die, I will never look at her if I jump from the stairs! But his eyes still wander on her very honestly.
It's beautiful!
She took a dry towel and wiped her hair again, and threw the towel on Bai Mashio's face, just hitting the wound, causing him to scream in pain.
He thought that he had been peeking and had been discovered, for fear that she would blow himself up with a ball of light, so he unconsciously moved in the opposite direction.
"Aren't you a GSG champion?, why are you so bad?!" she seemed to hold back all the way, and now that she had settled down, she began to dig up old accounts, "It seems that this year is still the reformed GSG." What's the matter?
If she had written this sentence in words, then every stroke would be full of ridicule, and every stroke would have sarcastically mocked him as a rookie.
Bai Maxiao's already swollen face turned even redder now, he had never been so frustrated when he was embarrassed in front of Mo Qi and Ning Ning before, it seemed that it was a great shame to make a fool of herself in front of her.
Bai Toriling saw him lying on the bed half-dead in a big word, did not refute her ridicule, stared blankly at the ceiling, worried whether he had been injured in the brain, took a closer look, and found that a tear actually flowed from the corner of his eye.
She suddenly regretted saying that very much, and climbed onto his bed, her face stretched out in front of him, trying to let him see her apologetic eyes, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said ...... that"
Her sudden appearance made Bai Maxiao startled, but in the next second, he didn't know where he got the courage, grabbed her shoulder, sat up suddenly, looked at her surprised eyes and said, "I won't be so embarrassed anymore, and I won't let you protect me again." Next time, I'll protect you. ”
She was stunned for a long time when she said these words, smiled gently, and reached out to stroke the whip marks on his face, "I believe it, Mr. Champion." ”
At this distance, this atmosphere, something should happen. Bai Maxiao's heart was pounding, and before she could think of any further movements, she was pressed back to the bed, "Rest early." ”
She went back to her bed and turned off the light.
Everything came and went quickly, and Bai Maxiao suddenly felt a little disappointed.
Go to the soul pool tonight and let the soul couple give me assault training, this time I must not break my promise!
......
The white soul pool echoed with crisp laughter. The soul couple on the other side had been laughing for almost ten minutes.
Bai Maxiao couldn't figure out why he was like this in the dream-like soul pool.
It feels like being laughed at by someone in reality and being laughed at by the same person again in a dream. The soul couple in front of him is clearly a cheerful version of the white bird Ling in ancient costume.
"Have you laughed enough!" Bai Maxiao patted the table impatiently and looked at the dark shadow in the corner, "Are you laughing at me too?"
The shadow was still curled up, shivering, ignoring him, but it seemed to him like a shudder with laughter.
"I'm a soul couple, the spirit in charge of your memories, and I don't usually laugh. She tried to hold back a smile, her cheeks swollen, "unless you can't help it." ”
"I'll cut it short. Bai Maxiao no longer struggled with her about this issue, "I want to make my skills a little more flexible, is there any way?"
"That's not going to work. The soul couple vetoed without even thinking about it, "This is a dream, I can only teach you how to use spiritual magic here, physical training is useless, you don't want to exercise your abdominal muscles in a dream, right?"
Bai Ma Xiao lowered his head in annoyance, let him start losing weight and fitness now, it's too late!
She saw his disappointment, thought for a moment and said, "But you can play to your strengths, as long as the enemy doesn't have a chance to attack, don't you have to dodge?"
"It's easy to say, the guy with the knife is in front of me in the blink of an eye today, and if you give me a Gatling I might be able to keep him at bay. ”
The soul couple looked at him with a very complicated look, but the emotions contained were not complicated, and the overall summary was contempt.
"Those in black uniforms aren't ordinary spirits, and their moves don't seem to be used to suppress ghosts, but rather a killing technique. "She seems to see everything that happened today, "Not to mention anything else, the person who used the knife is attacking people's vital points, and if it is dealing with supernatural creatures, it is not so particular." ”
Bai Ma Xiao also saw that they were not ordinary spirits, a bit like killers. But why wear the University of Phoenix uniform?
Seeing that he was lost in thought, the soul couple snapped his fingers in front of him and pulled his thoughts back, "If you don't know something, even if you think about it, it won't come to fruition, it's better to think about how to deal with them next time." ”
Bai Maxiao seemed to have thought about this problem, and said helplessly, "You let me play my strengths." The only thing I'm different from the rest is psychic blood, so you can't let me draw talismans on the spot when I'm in battle, right?"
"Why not?" said the soul companion with an evil smile, "ill-intentioned" and said, "The spirit is alive, and the spirit is dead. Sometimes a bit of a creative thinker can often find his own style through innovation, such as Bai Ma Fei. ”
"What kind of style is White Horse? I think it would be better for you to directly import his memories into my mind and let me directly become him. ”
"You want to be beautiful, a large amount of memory direct ingestion will cause your soul to be damaged, let alone become him, it will be a blessing to become a vegetative person when the time comes. The soul couple grabbed him by the ear and pulled him up from the stool, "Now, honestly learn from me the 'water control technique'." ”
......
In the early morning, the faint sunlight shone into the room, and Shiratori Ling heard a noisy sound in her sleep, she opened her eyes, and the quilt on the bed next to her was messily thrown there, and the person on the bed was nowhere to be seen. There was no movement in the room except for the sound of the TV.
She sat up, the morning news was playing on the TV, and at the table next to her, Bai Maxiao was facing away from her, not knowing what she was doing.
"What are you stealing?"
With a "poof", she saw a splash explode on his face, apparently frightened by her and threw the water on her face.
Curious, Shiratori Ling got out of bed, took a closer look, and found a glass of water on the table, as well as a drop of water that had just fallen on his face and then landed on the table. "What are you staring at a glass of water early in the morning?"
"I'm playing in the water. Look at it. He turned sideways as if to give her enough space to see, and saw his hands hanging above the glass of water, and the water in the cup seemed to be shaken and rippled, and then a pinch of water floated out of the cup, stopping between Hakumashio's two hands, and he fiddled with the pinch of water, and floated in the air to the right and then to the left.
"If you want to use water control against those people, I don't think there's enough water. You should probably practice against the pond. Shiratori Ling said with some disdain, and turned around and went to the bathroom.
When I came out again, I found that Shiraba stopped playing in the water and stared at the TV next to him.
"Last night, there was an explosion in a service area next to the highway outside Nanjing, and we can see how serious the explosion was through this rubble at the scene. It is reported that the cause of the explosion was a gas leak from a restaurant in the service area. At present, the accident has killed five people and injured more than 10 people......"
Looking at Bai Maxiao's sad and self-reproachful expression, Bai Bird Ling walked by him very indifferently, "Such a thing is inevitable." They are already unscrupulous in order to kill you......"
"But they didn't cause the explosion. Hakumashio's tone was full of reproach, "You could have dealt with them easily." ”
"Easy?" Shiratori Ling said with some annoyance, "My hand was almost cut off, just to save a certain ......" She suddenly remembered his words last night, and his determined eyes, and didn't finish this sentence again, "If you want not to hurt the innocent, you must first be strong enough." Otherwise, you can't protect yourself, how can you protect others. ”
"You have to be strong enough......," Bai Ma Xiao muttered, sucking out a cloud of water from the water cup with one hand, brewing it in his hand for a while, and slamming it against the wall, the water smashed against the wall, leaving a puddle of water stains, "I'm going to buy some breakfast, you're still eating the same as me, right?"
"Hmm. Looking at his departing back, Bai Bird Ling always felt that there was something different from before.
Definitely not because of the ring of gauze on his head.
She didn't think much of it, got up to get the clothes on the hanger, and suddenly saw water stains on the wall, which looked like words.
"White ...... Horse?" Shiratori Ling read out, smiling knowingly.
