In the fishy wind that hit her face, she closed her eyes and waited for the blood to tear her apart. This is good, this is good.
Maybe he, the burden, would die before he could escape.
I'm sorry, I don't want to live anymore, she whispered softly: "I'm sorry..."
But at that moment, there was an angry roar.
A hand suddenly stretched out, passed through the almost frozen moment, grabbed her palm, and pulled her into his arms with all his strength.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Qingxuan flew up involuntarily.
An invisible force hit his back, as if it was going to crush him completely, and he even heard the sound of his own bones breaking.
He rolled in the air, landed on the ground, and coughed in severe pain. A trace of viscosity flowed out from the huge gap in his back, and the color of the bones was faintly exposed.
At the last moment, fortunately, his left hand blocked it. Now, he has no feeling in his left hand. The broken bone pierced the skin and exposed a section, which looked funny and ridiculous.
He saw countless shadows spreading with the blood flow, blocking the entire hall. They were swarming around, looking for their traces like a pack of mad dogs.
Those shadows seemed to sense the resonance of the invisible ghost and slowly gathered towards him.
He tried to get up from the ground, but his body no longer obeyed. If it weren't for the hallucination that cut off the physical pain, he might have passed out by now.
However, if you can die in a coma, maybe you will be happier than watching death come now, right
He sighed softly, feeling the trembling of the girl in his arms.
"Don't you still want to go home?"
He used his last strength to hug her, and sighed softly for the last time: "Be obedient, Bai Xi."
"sorry Sorry… "
The sticky blood flowed down her neck and fell into her arms. The girl let out a faint choking sound. Maybe she was frightened? This time I was really scared.
If you are scared to tears, can you become better behaved? Just be a little more obedient.
"It's all my fault that you became like this. I'm sorry." Bai Xi's tears fell on his neck.
"This is the first time I heard you apologize. I didn't expect it to be in a place like this."
Ye Qingxuan couldn't help but want to laugh, but couldn't.
He actually wanted to comfort her and tell her: Don't be afraid. Tell her that no matter what happens, it will be over and we will all live well. There will be a turning point when you are desperate... But not everything in this world can end casually, nor will there be a turning point waiting for you every time you are desperate.
This world is so cruel and terrifying, even if he can say a lot of beautiful words that sound heart-warming, and no matter how many people he helps like Bai Xi, like himself in the past... there are some things that he is destined to be powerless to do.
Yes, that’s it, no matter how many times you repeat it, it’s the same.
There seemed to be a mocking voice coming from the bottom of my heart, contemptuous and contemptuous: Ye Qingxuan, haven't you already experienced this feeling? Have you ever believed the lies you told even for a second
The city of Avalon is so big, and there are so many people who are living a life of luxury and wealth, but it cannot accommodate a homeless person, nor does it allow weak people to live here.
So, it would be nice if all time stayed in the past.
Staying in that snowy night in winter, the only night that allowed him to sleep peacefully.
Just like now, hugging his own kind, with warmth in his arms.
This is really good, a thousand times better than those fireworks, ten thousand times better than those pity eyes. No matter how cruel or indifferent this world is, as long as someone stands with you, you don't have to be afraid of anything, not even death.
As long as you are not alone.
But no one can avoid being lonely.
You hugged the girl in your arms, wanting to protect her at the last moment, but did you hear her cry
Her heart is still buried in the abyss, and you can't be found in her eyes.
Still can't do anything.
…
…
In the silence, the ghost mother screamed again.
The scream echoed loudly in the sewer, and countless limbs were twisting in the blood shadow, as if something was crawling out of hell.
The outlines of those things are constantly changing. They may be decapitated prisoners, or three-headed vicious dogs, or some kind of huge scales like deep sea monsters... The twisted invisible ghost changes this image and crawls out of the plasma. .
That is the resentment summoned after reading the ether here. The numerous bones buried under the deep well over the years are the source of their power. The music score draws out the resentment left here and turns it into evil beasts and demons for the hag to drive away.
"Dili Che·Prologue" - The Way of Animals.
It was only at this moment that its power was fully revealed, dancing wildly in the darkness.
But when Ye Qingxuan looked at them, he no longer felt fear, he just felt a little lost and relieved. It felt like something painful was coming to an end, and I felt relieved because of it.
The horrible hallucinations that had been suppressed finally came up, and the pain was far away from him. Even the cries lingering in his ears became distant... Maybe this was God's last mercy for him.
He felt that the world in front of him was gradually getting darker, but he didn't want to fall asleep yet. He wanted to talk to someone, the girl next to him...
"Bai Xi. Will there really be people in the East handing out food for free on the streets?" He said softly: "The beggars in the East are really so happy."
"I lied to you." Bai Xi answered him softly: "How could such a good thing happen?"
Ye Qingxuan smiled: "So, no one will rebel because they don't want to eat the meat pie distributed by the emperor, right?"
"No."
Ye Qingxuan sighed softly: "You really like lying, Bai Xi."
"I can't help it, that's the kind of person I am." Her shoulders trembled and she choked: "Isn't it annoying?"
"Well, that's so annoying."
Ye Qingxuan nodded. He could no longer see clearly what was in front of him. He could only feel the girl looking at him and squeezed out a smile. Bai Xi was stunned. She stared at Ye Qingxuan and asked softly:
"Even if you hate me, will you save me?"
"Yes, I will."
Ye Qingxuan lowered his head and responded softly with his last strength: "No matter what happens, I will save you."
Before falling into darkness, he heard Bai Xi whispering softly in his ear:
"Thank you."
The girl hugged him gently and cried: "Now you can save me."
It was like the hallucinations were coming back, but all the cries disappeared, and the world became silent for the first time. But in the silence, Bai Xi's heartbeat echoed, and he prayed with sobs:
"-Please help me."
…
At that moment, Ye Qingxuan heard a sound like thunder, the roar of a strong wind, and the faint sound of tears falling from his cheeks.
It was like a moment when the scorching sun poured into my arms.
As a result, endless fanaticism and pain poured into his body.
It was like lava pouring into his blood, and the terrible sting spread from his heart to all directions. The drowsiness and darkness were swept away, and the terrifying heat filled every corner of the body, stimulating as the blood flowed.
He opened his eyes, only to be stung by something that filled every inch of the air. It was extremely brilliant light. Like the scorching sun filling the space between heaven and earth, reaching far and wide.
Countless ethers collided violently, releasing dazzling electric light, bursting out like sharp blades, piercing the darkness, and setting off a loud and exciting sound in Ye Qingxuan's ears.
In the midst of this excitement, he finally heard clearly... that was Bai Xi's breathing.
No one could have imagined that this little girl's body contained such a huge power, so huge that it seemed like she was going to be completely torn into pieces.
Now that terrifying power rushed into Ye Qingxuan's body, and with that embrace, it was like igniting his soul and lifting it high above the scorching sun.
collapse!
Ye Qingxuan's body trembled suddenly, and a scar opened on the back of his neck, and the bone was clearly visible. But in that bone, a long needle driven into the bone marrow was ejected by an invisible force and pierced into the wall. But that kind of power did not end, it was still reverberating in his body, breaking through the obstruction between every inch of the bones.
collapse! collapse! collapse! collapse! collapse!
The silver nails that had been deeply implanted in the bone marrow at some point were squeezed out by the terrifying excitement, flew out, pierced into the wall, and dissipated invisible in the rapid trembling.
Until the end, Ye Qingxuan's whole body was stained red with blood, but in the severe pain, he felt extremely relaxed, as if he had taken off his shackles and returned to the world again.
—Free again!
All light went out.
But the young man's dark eyes had been ignited, and the light was released from under his slightly closed eyes, just like the reflection of moonlight.
He woke up from hallucinatory memories, but felt that he was no longer himself.
There was a will that extended from far away and settled in his body. It was obviously foreign, but under the bond of blood, it was integrated harmoniously with his will. That will guided his thoughts, leading him to overlook the world from another angle and stare at its original face.
For the first time in his life, he felt the existence of ether so clearly.
They exist in this world, hidden in the wind, sleeping underground, lingering in the flames, flowing in the water, and pervading all things.
"Is this the ether?"
