"I… "
Being held in her arms and hearing the word "past", Qin Xuexin's body trembled slightly.
Qin Shi's words seemed to touch upon the secret disease that lurked in the darkest corner of her heart. That secret disease was a terrible past event that made her feel uneasy just thinking about it.
puff.
At this time, two sharp claws tore at Qin Shi's back. The terrifying force ripped off the dragon scales and shattered his ribs.
His ribs were shattered, and Qin Shi felt that the five internal organs in his body were surging like an overwhelming force, and his blood was like boiling magma, exploding in his mouth and spurting out in one gulp.
Blood stains, dyeing the pink gauze skirt of Qinxue heart red.
Confused, Qin Xuexin supported Qin Shi and hummed with tears in her eyes: "How are you?"
"Hiss, hiss..." Taking a breath of air, Qin Shi moved forward a few steps, but the hand holding Qin Xuexin did not waver in the slightest: "I can't die, don't interrupt, do you... agree or not? Let's see. I'm going to die for this, young master. Can you please satisfy my little self-esteem?"
"Stop talking, stop talking, I promise you, I promise you everything..." Nestling in Qin Shi's arms, she looked at the shocking bloody mouth, feeling an indescribable pain in her heart like being cut by a knife, she couldn't help but Understand how Qin Shi could remain calm at such a life-and-death moment.
Qin Shi seemed to be satisfied and stopped talking nonsense with Qin Xuexin.
He also knew that now was not the time for joking. The reason why he did that just now was because he didn't want Qin Xuexin to worry, and he was really curious about what kind of external force could make this girl always wear a veil.
What a past that was.
Looking around, there are seven or eight blood puppets behind him, seven or eight on the left and right, and the rest are all in front.
"Damn it, all escape routes are blocked. It seems that it is impossible to leave the blood lake and return to the open space." Qin Shi stroked the corner of his mouth and looked up and down in his mind, quickly thinking about how to get out of this place of right and wrong.
At this time, his peripheral vision suddenly fell on the cave under the cliff of Blood Lake.
"Yes,"
As soon as he had a flash of inspiration, Qin Shi turned aside, held Qin Xuexin in his arms, and said, "Hold me tight."
Qin Xuexin was slightly surprised, but she didn't ask any more questions. She put Qin Shi's tiger body on her jade hand, and the little bird nestled in Qin Shi's arms.
"Haha, it's so nice to be so gentle." The sudden warmth in his chest made Qin Shi's heart skip a beat, and he immediately smiled slightly, looking directly at the cave not far away. After calculating the distance in the middle, he used the Netherworld Sword with all his strength. The wind stirred up the blood lake.
Uh-huh.
Nine rays of sword light swept out through the thorns and thorns, knocking back several blood puppets blocking the cave in one blow.
"Now," the blood puppet stepped back. Qin Shi suddenly opened his eyes wide and galloped out. He jumped up several times in a row, stepped on the blood splashing in the blood lake, and went straight to the cave. Rush in.
Seeing this, Qinxue was stunned: "You want to enter the cave,"
In her opinion, this kind of behavior is almost crazy. The cave is in the deepest part of the blood lake. Wouldn't that push the situation to a dead end
Qin Shi naturally understood what Qin Xue was thinking, but now he was just gambling.
Before, he saw that these blood puppets were all soaked in the blood lake, so he was betting that these blood puppets could not leave the blood lake. If this was the case, as long as they could rush into the cave, they would be completely safe. If If you lose the bet, you will be in dire straits.
Although this behavior is crazy, he can only gamble now.
If you gamble, there is still a glimmer of hope. If you don't gamble, you will end up being torn apart alive by dozens of blood puppets.
Either way, die.
The word "taking risks" has long been the epitome of Qin Shi.
But obviously, Qin Shi made the right bet, and he jumped into the cave with Qin Xuexin in his arms.
As soon as they entered the cave, groups of blood puppets rushed towards them, but when they approached the edge of the blood lake, they stopped one after another, as if they had encountered something frightening. They just stood outside the cave and kept shouting at the two of them. An excited roar.
"Huh..."
Seeing this, Qin Shi let out a long sigh, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and raised the corners of his mouth with a slight smile: "It seems that I made the right bet. I am still lucky. These beasts must be supported by the blood lake." , unable to leave the range of the Blood Lake,"
"So that's what it is,"
Qin Xuexin suddenly realized, looking at Qin Shi with something strange in her eyes.
This desperate way of gambling with one's wealth and life seemed too crazy to her, but in Qin Shi's eyes, it seemed like a common occurrence.
For a time, she gradually became curious about Qin Shi, and wondered in her heart: "What has this person experienced before, and he can face life and death so calmly?"
Outside the cave, the blood puppet finally began to fade away helplessly.
When the blood puppet faded away, Qin Shi breathed a deep sigh of relief. Soon he felt Qin Xuexin staring at him with a strange look, and scratched his head in embarrassment: "Why are you looking at me like this? Is it love?" The original book is missing,”
Who would have thought that after being teased by Qin Shi, Qin Xuexin's expression quickly changed, and she became cautious and vigilant, saying: "I will not fall in love with you."
“…”
Qin Shi was a little confused by this rapid change.
However, he didn't care. He supported his embarrassed body and sat down next to Qin Xuexin. He leaned on the cliff of the cave. He looked back at the injuries on his back and felt a little painful: "Hiss, hiss... these beasts, It fucking hurts,"
"How are you,"
This time, Qin Xuexin did not move away. Instead, she tore the gauze skirt into strips of cloth, trying to bandage Qin Shi's wounds.
After the injury was bandaged, Qin Shi simply moved his body and the pain was relieved a little. Then he glanced at Qin Xuexin with charm and said: "Hey, let me tell you, is it time for you to fulfill your agreement with me? Oh, we can’t let this young master lose half his life in vain,”
"What agreement,"
Qin Xuexin was stunned for a moment, and her eyes were a little confused.
"Let me go, you are really stupid and pretend to be stupid sometimes. Are you deliberately pretending to be stupid here with me?" Hearing this, Qin Shi straightened his face slightly displeased and said, "I didn't say yes, as long as this If you survive by chance, will you tell me about your past?"
past.
These two words echoed heavily in Qin Xuexin's mind.
She gritted her teeth, her eyes turned red, and tears filled her eyes.
Looking at the aggrieved and pitiful look, Qin Shi was a little embarrassed: "Hey, what's your expression?" What he couldn't bear the most was the girl's tears. He shook his head: "If you don't like it, let it go. It's like I'm bullying you." of,"
"No... I promised you that I would definitely say it,"
But at this time, Qin Xuexin shook her head, her eyes were a little distracted, as if she was struggling with life and death: "It's just that I don't know, I should start with talking about peace."
"This is not easy, just from novels, your family, your parents, etc.," Qin Shi laughed casually.
Unexpectedly, these casual words deeply touched the heartstrings of Qin Xue's heart.
"I... I don't have a home,"
Qin Xuexin took a deep breath and turned half a circle with blurred eyes.
"Ah," Qin Shi was stunned and didn't speak for a while.
Time seemed to freeze like this. I don’t know how long it had passed. Qin Xuexin sighed: "When I was a child, I lived a very happy life before the age of seven. Like ordinary children, I had a happy family. My parents pampered me. I It’s the apple of their eye,”
Hearing the sound, Qin Shi listened silently.
"But, all of this changed completely when I was seven years old," her words were slightly desolate, and Qinxue's heart seemed to fall into the past that she least wanted to recall: "When I was seven years old, the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival , the family was having dinner together happily,"
"But that night, a group of people suddenly entered my home and killed my parents and relatives one by one... massacred my entire family, and they died in front of me," Qin Xuexin said At this point, he was curled up and shivering.
Boom.
Hearing the sound, Qin Shi gritted his teeth. He did not expect that such a tragedy would happen to Qin Xuexin when she was a child.
"Who are those people?" Qin Shi clenched his fists.
Qin Xuexin shook her head: "I don't know. I just remember that they were wearing bloody robes, as if they were demons who killed without blinking an eye. Those ferocious faces are still unforgettable to me."
Qin Shi said nothing.
"But sooner or later, I will definitely find this group of people and make them pay with blood," Qinxue clenched her heart-powdered fists, her voice filled with solemnity.
Waves of majestic wind blew at the entrance of the cave.
It was a brief moment, but it seemed like centuries had passed.
Qin Shi looked at the haggard Qin Xuexin, and then he understood why she was always so strong, and thought to himself: "No wonder, she always wears a mask and always shows off alone... It turns out that when she was a child, she had this kind of annoying personality. A sad past,"
Nowadays, no matter how shocked Qin Shi is, it is only a few paragraphs after all.
He knew that he would never be able to understand the feeling of watching a loved one die tragically in front of him.
That kind of pain is not pain that can be understood by just imagining it.
"Because of this incident, everyone in the city spread rumors about me, saying that I am a lone star of evil who is born to hate relatives and friends..." Qin Xuexin showed self-deprecating sarcasm and shook her head with compassion: "It is true that the family was slaughtered, but only I am not dead. I don’t understand why. Do I have to go through the pain of witnessing life and death?”
"At that time, I thought about dying. One death would mean a hundred things." A tear slowly slipped down Qin Xuexin's pale cheek. She raised her head slightly, looked at the mist in the sky outside the cave, and hummed in a weak voice: " However, when I really faced death, I was timid and panicked... "
Qin Shi was slightly shocked.
Yes, in the face of life and death, who can laugh at it
Besides, Qin Xuexin was only a seven-year-old girl at that time.
It’s really hard to imagine how a seven-year-old girl can support herself to this day.
"It's not your fault..." He wanted to comfort him, but when the words came to his lips, Qin Shi found that the words he organized were so pale and feeble. Isn't it the kind of pain that Qin Xuexin once experienced that was worse than death? A few words will do the trick.
God, it's really fair.
He gave this girl a moon-like appearance that could captivate the entire city, but he also gave her the experience of angering both humans and gods.
Sad, only sad, Qin Shi lowered his head.
However, he did not know at this time that the massacre of his family was just the beginning of Qin Xuexin's miserable life.
