Hundreds of meters away, Qiu Ran could still see that it was a beautiful girl through the eagle eye of blood exchange.
Xia Xingye's appearance was feminine and beautiful when he was a man, but he didn't feel any disobedience after becoming a woman. His nose is small and slender, and his eyes are also full of water, but the most eye-catching thing is his skin that is extremely radiant, extremely fair, and almost breakable.
"thump!"
The originally closed door was knocked open by someone, and the swollen man crawled out of the door in pain: "Save... save..."
He was dressed in rich clothes, like the clothes of a prince. The man fell to the ground, looking desperately at the girl in the black cloak, as if he didn't expect that he would end up like this.
Xia Xingye gently kicked his hand away.
The man was unable to say another word, emerald green buds and vines protruded from his mouth, he puffed out his eyes, and looked at Xia Xingye painfully for the last time: "Ah..."
The light-haired girl smiled softly, squatted down and said softly: "There is no way, this is the best way to stop that pea from multiplying."
"You... Gulu... Gulu..."
Xia Xingye got up and was about to leave without hesitation. When he turned his head, he saw a cold light in the forest, and his expression changed instantly.
"you… "
"call out!"
A sharp arrow pierced through the air!
Xia Xingye subconsciously wanted to dodge, he turned to the left—
The dark, thorny pea vines hit his arm hard!
Behind him, the man who was struggling with the last bit of strength and violently wanted revenge was stabbed in the heart by an arrow, and flew backwards and fell to the ground. And the vine that was sprayed out from his mouth at the end was also thrown to the other side as he fell.
Xia Xingye clutched his bleeding arm and looked back at the side where the corpse fell.
That arrow seems to be specially made. After hitting the man's vitals, pale flames ignited all over the man's body. In the flames, the man's body was burned to ashes together with the vines.
It stands to reason that this arrow alone cannot do this. The man and the pea vines could be easily burned because they had already lost half of their vitality before that, and the moment just now was just the revenge of the last struggle with their lives.
However, Xia Xingye was still seriously injured.
Under the influence of the "Princess and the Pea" identity card, his skin is now quite fragile, and it is extremely vulnerable to the impact and erosion of attacks. Now, his arm was bleeding profusely—it didn't affect his walking, but if Qiu Ran wanted to take revenge on him at this time, it would be very difficult for him to resist now.
The girl who shot the arrow came out of the jungle. Xia Xingye held his arms and watched her sticking to the bow and walking towards him.
He remembered this girl very much. Xia Xingye didn't have a very deep memory of the people he lied to, but he still basically remembered them - although generally speaking, he would stop any future troubles on the spot, but if he didn't succeed on the spot, he would always remember their faces afterwards. for his subsequent actions.
But he remembered Qiu Ran not only because of "Minghua Middle School", but because of...
"I didn't expect to meet you in this game." Xia Xingye said, but there was no panic in his tone. He looked at the girl walking towards him, and even smiled politely: "Recently, you are quite famous in the senior camp."
That's right, with his intelligence network, how could he not know that a girl holding a longbow came from the intermediate field recently to seek revenge on him.
Qiu Ran didn't look at him. She crossed Xia Xingye to look behind him. Behind him, the corpse and the vines inside had been completely burned by the flaming arrows, leaving only a pile of blackened ashes.
Among the ashes was a red, ball-like thing.
It looks like a seed.
She picked up the ball through the handkerchief, while paying attention to Xia Xingye's every move behind her to prevent herself from being attacked. After doing all this, she turned around and walked towards Xia Xingye and said, "I am indeed here to find you."
Her tone was calm, her voice was also very calm, she didn't look like she was almost killed by him before. Xia Xingye was injured in his arm, but he was not in a panic because he still held a hole card.
Every businessman will leave a way out for himself.
"So you came to kill me?" He said softly, "When you were in Minghua Middle School, you were once in danger because of me—don't get me wrong, I didn't mean to shirk responsibility or try to beautify the facts. My back then The purpose and what I did was to use you to get what I want. If it were me and I was lucky enough to escape from there, I would probably want to kill that person to relieve my hatred. "
Qiu Ran looked at him coldly, without speaking.
"But just now you shot that arrow and killed the npc behind me. Obviously, you didn't want to kill me, and you even 'saved' my life." Xia Xingye smiled, " Maybe it's because you feel that there are more important things than simply venting your anger, such as... As a businessman, I must have many good props on me. Are you going to get these props?"
Qiu Ran stopped in front of him. Xia Xingye raised his bloody right hand and said softly, "Don't get me wrong, I have no intention of resisting to the death. We are barely teammates in this game. We are all the same, and we don't want to leave ourselves a time bomb that may explode at any time. Perhaps you want to resolve this issue in a more peaceful, mutually satisfactory way?"
- This is Xia Xingye's purpose.
From the perspective of resolving disputes and maximizing rational interests, it is not a good choice for him to fight Qiu Ran here.
It is very unlikely that he was killed by Qiu Ran. This was the last result he wanted to see. It is more likely that he will win, but this is a high-level dungeon. Fighting between players is a loss of strength. In addition, it is unknown whether there will be a change after Qiuran dies. — After all, she has an identity card in her hand.
And letting Qiuran leave is tantamount to planting a time bomb for himself in the game that he doesn't know when it will explode. Without knowing it, someone is watching from behind, and there may be backstabbing - this is something Xia Xingye never wants to see.
He believes that Qiuran will also make the choice he wants.
"You owe me something." Qiu Ran said coldly to him, "I'm here to ask you for it."
-really. Xia Xingye thought.
Without saying anything, he took out a few props. However, Qiuran looked at these props, but only took one of the bows and arrows.
"Enough." She put the bow and arrow back into the arrow basket and said, "Let's settle the matter."
After saying this, she will leave here.
"You just want an arrow?"
"You owed me an arrow, and now I have it back," she said.
As for the rest, she doesn't do it, and she won't do it. It was her own fault that she was deceived and credulous and almost got killed. In this regard, she would not seek compensation from Xia Xingye.
Qiu Ran's figure disappeared into the jungle, and Xia Xingye's arm gradually healed. He stared at the direction where the other party disappeared, but his expression was not at all relaxed.
But cold and sinking.
The figure of the teammate in the memory seemed to appear in the jungle again, and gradually overlapped with Qiu Ran's figure. That person was always smiling, thinking that he was like a big brother, and said to him those words that he thought were very comforting.
"This kind of person is so stupid and naive, it's ridiculous."
He didn't know if he was thinking about Qiu Ran or someone from the past.
Xia Xingye thought this from the bottom of his heart, but the sound of "Didi" came from the prop in his hand. He looked down and saw a familiar green dot.
"It turned out to be an old friend."
That person was not Chu Tianshuyi or Lin Huai, but another person who had the same behavior style as him. It's just different from him, that person looks quite enthusiastic and cheerful, and knows everyone well, but he is a puppeteer who manipulates puppets.
Most of those who can control puppets have extremely meticulous thoughts. Xia Xingye didn't like this person very much, but in terms of cooperation, he could also get along with him.
He put the card he got from the birth point plot of "Princess and the Pea" into his pocket, and sent a message back to that person.
The card he put in his pocket was purple and said "Pride" on it.
…
There is indeed a sleeping kingdom at the end of the woods. Lin Huai lay on Chu Tianshu's body, looking at everything under her feet.
They stood on the hillside, so they could easily see the whole panorama of the sleeping city. At this moment, it was sunset, and the whole city-state was majestic and beautiful under the setting sun. Except for the castle in the center, there were neat streets and row upon row of huts. They are all shrouded in sunlight, as if they have been plated with a layer of gold.
However, for some reason, Lin Huai always vaguely felt that this town was a bit weird.
Something in my mind seemed to be touched lightly, making the sound that a string on a piano would make when it was plucked. Lin Huai let out a soft "Huh".
He felt that his title ability seemed to be activated.
—his dream abilities.
Lin Huai seldom used her title ability. Most of the time, he only uses "Super Physical Skills" to add a little bit to his activities, or borrows the ability of "role-playing" when playing poor.
This time, however, squinting at the town in twilight, he gently activated his last ability.
"Dream stealing".
"This place is very strange," Lin Huai said on Chu Tianshu's back, "It doesn't look like a...a..."
He considered the words: "A town in reality."
In his field of vision, the city seems to be wrapped in a colorful dream bubble. In the big dream bubble, there are countless light films or small bubbles of different dreams, connected together in pieces, like There are countless dreams intertwined in it.
The closer to the castle, the denser the dream... Presumably there is the residence of the "lazy witch".
"That's right, there are many residents in this city, but they are all in deep sleep." Chu Tianshu said, "Or, this city is originally an ocean of dreams."
"Ocean of dreams?"
"The dreams of each resident are intertwined, and if we are not careful, we will stray into the dream of a random resident. In other words, when we step into this city-state, we will directly enter the dream. And in a single dream Among them, the master is invincible and has infinite imagination."
"So wouldn't it be bad if we strayed into someone else's dream?"
"It's okay if you stray into someone else's dream, the most dangerous dream should be..."
Lin Huai blinked: "A witch's dream?"
"No," Chu Tianshu said in a low voice, "it's our own dream."
