"Of course there's no problem." Qi Leren took the lead in responding to Su He's request, with a calm expression and nothing out of the ordinary.
Now he kind of understands why the first thing the trial trained him was to teach him how to lie, which is really a very practical skill.
On the contrary, Dr. Lu was a little puzzled. He looked at Su He and asked nervously, "What are you talking about?"
Su He smiled slightly, as if inviting each other to dance at a ball. He bent down slightly, with one hand behind his back and the other in front of Dr. Lu. Dr. Lu gave him a suspicious look and placed his hand obediently. .
The two only stood still in front of Qi Leren's eyes for two or three seconds. Dr. Lu withdrew his hand and said with a look of admiration, "Wow, the Land of Dawn looks so beautiful! It's totally different from the Land of Dusk. I love Dawn Land!"
Su He nodded with a smile: "It's true that the styles are quite different, but I really like the Land of Dusk. It's lively and real, and the Land of Dawn is too quiet."
The conversation between the two made Qi Leren a little confused: "What are you talking about?"
"You try it too, it's very interesting!" Dr. Lu urged Qi Leren to push him.
Su He also stretched out his hand to him. He was wearing a pair of white gloves, and his hands became more and more slender. Qi Leren looked into his eyes as if nothing had happened. Su He was looking at him without any inquiry and malice. His eyes are calm and gentle. When he looks at a person like this, it is difficult for anyone to refuse him.
Qi Leren stretched out his hand.
At the moment when the hands touched, Qi Leren's eyes were filled with light and shadows. In a blink of an eye, he was standing on a high tower. There were a few white clouds floating in the blue sky. Looking around, the earth under his feet turned out to be countless floating in The islands in the air are like a flock of white doves in the boundless blue sky. In the far east, a bright morning sun is rising from the depths of the mountains, dispelling the darkness and cold, and making people feel warm.
"This is the Land of Dawn?" Qi Leren stood on the edge of the white handrail and looked at this fantastic and beautiful land in amazement.
"It's the Land of Dawn. Of course, it's just a domain constructed from what I remember. I hope I can take you there to see it one day." Su He walked over to him and watched the tranquil and beautiful Land of Dawn with him. .
"Hope it..." The people of Qi Le, who were still living in precariousness under the shadow of the Seed of Slaughter, hadn't thought about it that far, "However, what is the realm?"
"Well, to put it simply, a domain is a small world built by itself. If you are strong enough, you can even build a domain similar to a dungeon. The world in the domain and the world outside the domain have different time flow rates, so rest in the domain. And training, there are good results." Su He said.
Qi Leren never knew there was such a thing, and his experience was still too shallow: "Does everyone have a field?"
"Of course not." Su He smiled gently and said patiently, "There should be no more than thirty people who have domains in the nightmare world."
Qi Leren swallowed, facing Su He's more psychological pressure.
The air in the Land of Dawn is fresh, unlike the Land of Dusk, which is filled with the smell of motor oil, and the roar of machinery is always in the ears. It is so quiet here that it doesn't look like anyone at all. But at this time, Qi Leren had no intention of enjoying the scenery at all, and was thinking nervously about how to hide the sky in front of Su He.
As long as he refuses to admit it, Su He doesn't have any evidence to prove that the mission error is related to him, right? Even if he is a high-level player from the Land of Dawn, or even half a GM, it is impossible for him to know his experience before entering the nightmare world.
"Qile people." Su He's voice sounded in his ears.
Qi Leren, who was psychologically prepared, raised his head, ready to accept Su He's interrogation at any time.
Su He was looking at him, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth faded. He looked more serious than before: "I noticed just now... What's the matter with that thing on the back of your neck?"
"?!"
Qi Leren couldn't hide his shock at that moment, and looked at Su He in amazement.
Did he find out? And he discovered the Seed of Murder at a glance
"I have some research on the power of demons, and that kind of breath can't be concealed from me." Su He sighed slightly, walked to the center of the terrace, and opened the chair by the small round table, "Sit down, let's talk."
Like a student who was caught cheating by the teacher, Qi Leren walked to the table nervously, hesitated for a while, and sat down.
There was a set of exquisite tea sets on the small white round table. Su He took off his gloves, made him a pot of black tea without a word, and put the cup in front of him. The silent Su He put more pressure on Qi Leren. He would rather Su He question him than to keep him silent.
Qi Leren, who is restless, has already passed countless thoughts in his mind, and he refuses to recognize it? Impossible, Su He has already discovered it, and he can't hide it. Be honest? Even more impossible, the requirement of the court is that he must not reveal his undercover identity. Pretending to be accidentally infected? It seems... that's all it can do.
After Su He made the black tea, Qi Leren had already thought of a countermeasure and calmed down.
"Although I haven't been away for a long time, when I see you again, you have grown a lot since the beginning." Su He did not ask about the Seed of Slaughter as soon as he opened his mouth, but reminisced with him with emotion.
Qi Leren couldn't find his rhythm a bit, so he had to chat with him first: "... Because a lot of things have happened, people always grow faster when they are struggling on the edge of life and death."
The black tea in the cup exudes a curling mist, full of rich and mellow smell. On the terrace at the top of this towering white tower, the two people with their own minds casually chatted about their experiences these days.
"I was worried for a long time after I sent you to Maka Village, where the mission of sacrificing witches was started. That mission involved demons. You, a newcomer, are prone to accidents. I asked a friend from Duskland to pay attention to your situation. , it's great to hear the news that you are still alive... um, great." Su He said happily without concealing his concern.
Qi Leren felt more and more guilty. Su He had always taken care of him, but he wanted to deceive him...
For a moment, he wanted to tell everything, and confided all his anxiety, pain, confusion, and guilt. There were too many secrets hidden in his heart, and he was overwhelmed.
"I... I'm fine, the mission of sacrificing witches is indeed very dangerous, but my luck is not bad." Qi Leren said with a strong smile.
Although luck was never on his side, he still lived to the end. Maybe all his luck was used to meet Ning Zhou. If it wasn't for Ning Zhou, he would never have survived the mission of sacrificing witches.
Su He showed an interested expression: "Oh? I'm quite interested in missions involving demons, can you tell me about it?"
Qi Leren was in a dilemma. If he wanted to talk about it, he would definitely mention Ning Zhou, but if he refused... He really couldn't bear to let Su He down again.
"If you swear not to laugh at me, I'll tell you." Qi Leren said gloomily.
Su He looked at him in surprise: "Of course I won't laugh at you. If my request embarrassed you, I'm sorry... Actually, I don't have to know. "
Saying that, he nodded apologetically to Qi Leren, and apologized for embarrassing him for his rash request.
Qi Leren's last bit of embarrassment also dissipated: "No, I don't feel embarrassed. I also find some parts of this task very strange. I want to hear your opinion."
Su He blinked and said, "I will listen carefully to what you say."
"There is something special about the quest of Sacrifice the Witch, just like its name, the object of participation is the 'witch'. So at the beginning of the quest, I woke up in the carriage and found that I had become a… child."
Su He, who was adding black tea to the Qi Le people, shook his hand, and there were two more tea stains on the white tablecloth.
Qi Leren's eyes suddenly became resentful, he really wanted to laugh: "You promise not to laugh at me."
Su He clenched his fist to his mouth and coughed twice: "I didn't laugh."
Having said that, his smiling eyes couldn't be hidden: "I'm just thinking about what it would be like if you became a girl..."
"It's just a very ordinary look." Qi Leren said expressionlessly.
"My feeling tells me that she must be a very cute girl." Su He pointed to the corner of his eyes with a smile, "Your eyes are beautiful, the outer corners of your eyes are lower, if it is a girl, it will be very obvious If you drop your eyes, you will look very innocent."
"And then there are the lips. The lip shape is very good. The lip beads in the middle of the upper lip are very obvious, and the corners of the mouth are a little warped." Su He put his index finger on his lips, like a gesture of silence, "There is such a lip shape. Girls, they must be cute."
"Stop, stop, we're not discussing this kind of issue now, I'm a man, a man, OK?" Qi Leren felt embarrassed for some reason, and quickly stopped Su He's conjecture. He secretly felt that, with Su He's appearance, Half of the girls had already fallen under his suit pants, and what was even more frightening was that he was still very good at talking, so I was afraid that the other half of the girls would not be able to hold it either.
Although it seemed a little regrettable, Su He nodded cooperatively and listened carefully to what he said.
When it comes to Ning Zhou again, Qi Leren's mood has calmed down. He can describe him calmly and objectively instead of being sad and angry. Qi Leren didn't say much about Ning Zhou, and his skills are basically the same. It was all vague, and he didn't even say his name. He only said that they defeated Ye Xia, ended the mission, and didn't talk about what happened after returning to the Land of Twilight.
Su He listened quietly. He is a very qualified listener. He never expresses his opinions indiscriminately or asks about things he doesn't want to say.
"That's about it, what do you think?" Qi Leren said melancholy.
Su He's hands overlapped beside the teacup, and the index fingers of his left and right hands kept switching positions up and down, as if he was thinking about something. In the empty and silent world under the blue sky and white clouds, he was silent for a long time, and then sighed softly: "You The 'that person' mentioned is a man."
Qi Leren took a sip of the mellow black tea with a teacup, concealing his complicated mood at this moment: "How did you find out?"
"A lot of details. You deliberately avoid mentioning him in many places, unless you have to. You only talk about your actions, you risked your life to lure away the bone dragon for him, and read the file three times in a row for him at the last moment, but never said anything. Mention his reaction, but I can guess without saying it. Unless you are a hard-hearted person, how can you be indifferent to you like this? You must have met later, but the result is regrettable. The most important point, you The whole process did not use the words referring to the opposite sex to describe him. You only said 'that person', and even once you slipped up and used the word 'goddess', but you immediately corrected it back to 'that person'. It's easy to think of the answer by temporarily changing the appearance of a man into a woman's appearance, and the hesitation before you start your statement." Su He spoke his analysis slowly, and every point was to the point.
In front of Su He, it was really hard for Qi Le people to hide themselves.
"Yes, as you guessed, we met after the mission, and then... there is no more." Qi Leren smiled bitterly. He didn't say anything about the tomb sweeping, let alone Ning Zhou's ring. Come out, it's like an elusive secret between them, even his own.
Because Ning Zhou wouldn't know—even he himself didn't know why—he took the ring.
