Chapter 8: The Reaction of the Dying
The sky suddenly cleared, and a ray of slanting sun under the eaves fell on Qiqi's left face in an instant.
She slowed down for a moment, then bounced off the stone staircase and hurried into the house.
Seeing that the people in the house were still there, she breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the people were not dead.
Xiu Zhen was packing up the burden in the house, Qiqi saw a corner of the burden, there were dried grapes, dried meat, candied plums and the three pears he had just picked, he put away the baggage, looked around the house, his eyes stayed in the direction of Qiqi, and the corners of his mouth were smiling.
Her heart was raised again, this person is dead?
Observing him, Qiqi slowly moved to the side, and seeing that Xiu Zhen's line of sight did not follow, she was slightly relieved, thinking that she was accidentally on the side.
After a while, Xiu Scar went out with the pile of delicious food he had just packed.
In the scorching sun, he walked to the slope of the big dirt slope with his burden on his back, and she followed silently behind.
The underworld can't see the sun, and the noon sun in this mortal world is the most energetic, she was dizzy from the sun, and looked up to see that the cultivation marks in front of her were still walking unhurriedly, as if she didn't mean to stop and rest.
She had to continue to follow behind, there was about half an hour left to repair the marks, and after the soul was collected safely, would she be in the recall order next month?
Qiqi thought about it and was accidentally trampled by the roots of the tree growing on the ground, and was about to use the immortal method to get up, and the aura around his body had just gathered.
The person in front of him took the lead and grabbed her arm.
Hold her up!
Qiqi was stunned and leaned against the crook of the scar's hand, consciously thinking of the dream just now, obviously it was still hot and sweating a moment ago, but at this time he couldn't help but shudder, shook the fingertips of the scar's shoulder, and slowly raised his head.
"Are you dead?"
Xiu Scar helped her up and said gently, "I'm not dead yet." ”
Yes, he's not dead, he's still tangible!
"Then how can you see me?" Qiqi broke free from him and took two steps back without a trace.
"When I was a kid, I was able to see things that other people couldn't see. ”
"And you've seen me since the beginning?" she asked in a tentative whisper.
Scar nodded.
For some reason, looking at his calm appearance, Qiqi's heart was empty, "Do you know why I came?"
Xiu Scar's expression was not afraid of her, but... On the contrary, he was very calm and even a little more happy.
"You just said that. After finishing speaking, Xiu Scar walked up the slope, and Qiqi walked quickly to the side of Xiu Scar behind.
"What did I say?"
Xiu Scar lowered his eyes and said, "You said I should die." ”
Qiqi shook her head and hurriedly explained, "Don't get me wrong, I'm here based on your fate, not that I want to kill you." ”
After speaking, he was worried that he wouldn't believe it, so he gasped and said: "I'm a ghost in the underworld, you may not believe it---" Her voice became smaller and smaller, this person could have seen the ghost, if he didn't believe her, he would run away later...... Then her exploits in the past few years in the underworld will be completely ruined!
Xiu Zhen naturally didn't know the eighteen bends of the mountain road in her heart, and seeing that there was no sound beside her, she turned her head to look at her with tangled facial features behind her as she walked, and asked leisurely, "Then when will I die?"
"Huh?"
She was so absorbed in her own thoughts that she had run away from him halfway through and thought that she had died in a small dilapidated house in Hades.
Seeing her ignorant appearance, Xiu Scar smiled, turned around and continued to walk up the slope.
Qiqi reacted at this time, secretly sighed that he was a soldier on the way to collect his soul, ran to his side with his skirt, and replied honestly: "At the end of noon, but don't be afraid, it will pass in one go, and you can be reincarnated immediately." ”
After finishing speaking, he saw that Xiu Zhen's eyes became dim, and Qiqi was relieved, this is the reaction of a dying person.
