Chapter 37
Chapter 37
The passage of time, sometimes very fast when opening and closing eyes, and sometimes extremely slow.
When he opened his eyes again, he lost the weight of physical restraint, and the vast and deep sky seemed within reach.Consciousness is like a free breeze that hovers over Spice Town all day long.
Even if he stood in front of people, no one could see or touch him. He knew that this time, he had finally become something like a ghost and a ghost.
But even these things can no longer touch him.
Insensitivity just exists, and year after year, he gradually forgets many things, but the whole town is still bustling, and the annual Spice Festival is getting more and more lively.
He watched the birth of Gabriel's son, and then the birth of his son's son, and watched them travel and adventure one by one; When he went there, he was like himself many years ago, surrounded by his relatives in front of the bed, and quietly swallowed his last breath with tears.
And then?
And then everything gets more and more dull.
The last trace of concern for this world seems to have dissipated with Gabriel's death.He had waited for a long time, but he couldn't wait for that bearded man to meet him again. In the whole town or the whole continent, it seemed that only he, the alien, continued to exist in this form. He suddenly felt irritated and wanted to go back.
Where can I go back?He couldn't remember for a while.
He wanted to see what kind of ghost he had turned into. He hadn't dared to do so in the past countless years. He was afraid of seeing a monster with a hideous appearance that even he feared.After hesitating for several months, he finally made up his mind and found a calm lake. He hung in the air on the lake and exhaled heavily under the mirror-like reflection of the lake. If he could still breathe—it turned out that he was still himself. , with a pale and ordinary face, black eyebrows and hair, and a black ragged cloak covering his whole body.
This cloak that he held tightly in his hand before he died, representing the only connection with the distant past, finally made him recall his hometown, his relatives, his real name and identity.
But how can I go back?
He floated in mid-air thinking hard, no one could see him.He looked indifferently at the people wailing and crying on the ground, flames and blood were everywhere, the ground was trembling, and in the sky, countless red meteors fell to the ground with burning long tails.
The entire blue and lush plain had turned into a sea of burning purgatory flames at some point.
The planet is about to end.
He thought, and then retracted his gaze, the chest that was no longer beating was neither sad nor happy.
Too long wandering has worn away his emotional will, and he began to think—if there is no way to go back, then it would be good to destroy this planet named Terra together.
Hundreds of years?For thousands of years?He didn't know how much time passed after that, Terra was not finished, and he still continued to exist.He found Jinjinhua Tavern, where he used to deliver spices, miraculously escaped the ravages of earthquakes and sky fires, only a corner of the room collapsed, he hid in the shadow of the corner, woke up in a daze, fell asleep, and fell asleep again. Awake.
Until one day, two reckless intruders woke him up from his slumber.
He looked at the two young people standing side by side holding hands in front of him. Not only could they see him, the green-eyed young man named Ling Xiao even had the same experience as him, but he was completely different from him——
He is dead, but he is still alive.
Living so brightly, full of hope and anticipation for life, the smiling eyes are bright and clear, and the whole body is filled with a warm light that makes people want to get close.
Heh, completely different from the dark and corrupt him.
He sneered in his heart.
What an eyesore.
Letting the thick dark ferment in his heart spread, he deliberately pretended to be panicked and anxious, even he was moved by his acting skills.Sure enough, including the seemingly wary silver-haired orc, both of them were soft-hearted and good-natured people, without any doubt at all, they believed his mixed rhetoric.
Two fools!
It's easy to coax and lure them to continue walking into the depths of the town, let that thing deal with them.That ugly thing that appeared in this deserted town at some time would definitely devour the two of them without leaving any bones.
Even he himself couldn't explain why he did this.It's just that he was disturbed from a long and deep nightmare, and the moment he opened his eyes, it seemed that even the whole world in his eyes was dyed black.
He is in such pain, why can he still live so innocently?
Pulling up Ling Xiao who was squatting on the ground with dull eyes, at that moment he almost wanted to laugh out loud, go to hell, go to hell with all the eyesores!
Before the laughter overflowed his lips, the green-eyed young man held his arm instead, his gentle face twisted and deformed, and he laughed at him sinisterly——
"You are the one who died! Idiot, don't you understand?"
Don't you understand-
Under the terrifying wrist force that the other party couldn't break free, as if he was being scorched, he felt that his hand was about to break off.
Asshole, asshole.
What does he want to understand?
Of course he knew that he was dead, he had died many, many years ago, he didn't need anyone to laugh at him, he knew——
"Fool!" Looking coldly at him who was desperately struggling and howling in his hands, the other's face that was close in front of him was blurry, the facial features were constantly distorted and reorganized, and suddenly it changed into Gabriel's bearded face. Face, "Now you, even your soul is dead and lost, don't you understand?"
Don't you understand-
The deafening sound whipped his whole body, and he froze, staring at the nostalgic face in front of him that had been washed away by the long time.
who are you?
Who are you?
"Hehe..." At this moment, Gabriel's face became blurred and distorted again. He felt that the other party let go of him, and instead held his head tightly with both hands, that face moved closer to him, feeling cold. The voice seemed to speak slowly in his mind: "Open your eyes wide and look—who am I?"
The empty mind exploded with a bang, and the devil who tortured him to death entangled him again. He waved away the opponent's hand and fell to the ground screaming and writhing in pain. He felt his whole body was burning, his head The inside seemed to be full of needles and kept stirring, and it seemed that someone was tearing his skin alive and bloody, he hurt so much, he hurt so much!
There was blood and tears all over his face, but the nails still couldn't help scratching his skin, because it was too painful.
He felt that his whole body was being burned and melted, and the flesh and blood on his face began to fall from the bones to the ground one by one. He lay on the ground and finally raised his head, looking at another black-haired, black-eyed man in a black cloak with desperate eyes. At this moment, I looked at him on the ground indifferently——
"I'm you. What are you expecting? Fool."
……
Ling Xiao woke up panting, his whole body was covered in sweat as if he had been fished out of the water.
His pale face was covered with tears, and he was trapped in a long nightmare that spanned thousands of years. The pain and torment that had been stripped of his soul and flesh and flesh just now seemed to still exist in him extremely vividly.
Trying to support his body, every skeletal muscle in Ling Xiao's body seemed to be still clamoring for pain. The dream was so real that even Ling Xiao couldn't tell whether it was himself or another soul that was sending out the dream in that dream. Whining, struggling.
He reluctantly stood up and looked around in a daze—it was the middle of the day, and the flow of time in reality seemed to have only passed by for a moment. Hundreds of stone monuments have completely disappeared, leaving only a piece of scorched earth and layers of wind and sand covering it.
At this time, the faint fragrance from the tip of the nose reminded Ling Xiao of the danger here.
He anxiously began to search for Basil's traces. Fortunately, he immediately found a silver-haired young man lying on the ground and still unconscious not far away. Wake it from its lethargy.
There was no abnormality around, but the air began to tense up, and Ling Xiao clearly heard some kind of rustling sound, as if something was moving fast.
"Wake up, Basil!"
With eyes closed, the expression on his face seemed to be still immersed in sleep, and Basil did not respond to Ling Xiao's call.Gritting his teeth, he took one of Basil's arms and put it on his shoulder. Ling Xiao struggled to support Basil's whole body, and began to move towards the rough and potholed road.
But before taking a few steps, Ling Xiao's ankle was pulled by a strong force, and the two of them lost their balance instantly and fell towards the gravel road——
"Well!"
Because they were under Basil when they fell, and the weight of the two plus inertia, all the sharp-edged stones on the road pierced into Ling Xiao's back.
But Ling Xiao couldn't care about the pain in his back anymore, because the force that pulled his ankle was still trying to drag the two of them deeper into the town.Holding the unconscious Basil tightly with one hand, Ling Xiao touched his ankle with the other free hand. His eyes couldn't see anything, but when he touched his ankle, Ling Xiao clearly touched something. A cold sticky substance—
what is that?
Ling Xiao was terrified in his heart, but he couldn't allow him to think too much.His fingers quickly became dripping with blood due to the tight grip on the ground, but the dragging force continued to grow and intensify. At this time, Ling Xiao saw a sharp rock protruding from the corner of his eye, and he almost instinctively stretched out his hand , holding the triangular sharp stone in his hand, he raised his arm vigorously and slashed towards his ankle——
