Lord of Eternal Darkness

The two of them sat around the campfire. As night fell, everything was quiet.

Occasionally, I can hear the sounds of some animals, which is terrifying.

Li Xiaoming fiddled with the charcoal with a branch and raised his head to look at the beautiful woman taking a small bite.

The other party responded to his look and turned his body away with some shame, no longer facing him while eating.

Li Xiaoming chuckled, shook his head, and looked at the gray red moon in the sky.

"It seems that this red moon disaster will continue for half a week." Li Xiaoming looked at the burning fire and felt a burst of warmth. His head couldn't help but droop, and he was about to fall asleep in a trance.

I shook my head and stayed awake for a while. I was really tired today.

As a dreamer, the best choice is to sleep to replenish your strength.

St. Assad did not waste any food and ate cleanly. If it were normal, she would definitely have more than half of it left. After all, these meals really did not meet her taste, but in this deserted place, the other party's kindness I feel embarrassed to let him down.

I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but I suddenly felt that this dry food was delicious, so I ate it all with relish.

Saint Assad was sitting on a raised rock, dangling her little feet as white as jade, looking at the moon.

"I heard that a long time ago, the moon was pure white. So people fantasized about all the beautiful landscapes on the moon. But when people climbed on the moon, they got an extremely disappointing answer. There was only sand riddled with holes. ."

Li Xiaoming said: "But it opened the way for people to move towards the truth and have the courage to explore like other planets. This small step is a giant step for mankind."

Saint Assad nodded and expressed some agreement.

"It's so boring, let's chat."

Li Xiaoming replied: "Okay, what are we talking about."

Under the harsh climate, the two people were desperate to survive. It was a lonely and helpless night, but they had each other, which brought a glimmer of hope.

Lonely men and women surround this pile of dry firewood, just like the restlessness in people's hearts.

In a daze, she looked at this handsome man, and for some reason she associated herself with the heroine in a heroic novel. The corners of her mouth raised, and she couldn't help but snicker.

"Why are you giggling there? Are you sick?" Li Xiaoming asked with concern.

"Uh, you ignorant vulgar man, do you really like breaking girls' fantasies?"

"Now we are half dangling in the gate of hell. Where did the wonderful fairy tale come from? Although you and I are talented and beautiful, it is absolutely impossible. You'd better pinch off the bud of love, so as not to stay sad and let I bear the identity of a scumbag."

Li Xiaoming flipped his hair and said narcissistically.

Saint Assad was amused by this guy. If it weren't for his identity, she might actually be interested in this man.

"This level of shamelessness is rare, but don't worry, the rules of the Holy Cross Church do not allow you to fall in love in private. Maybe we can become good friends."

Li Xiaoming said with some regret: "Another admirer is missing, but I have a fiancée. Externally, others call her a couple, but internally, she is a friend.

"She is also very beautiful, but I am not worthy of her. In order to protect her reputation, I will not have too many interactions with other women outside."

She praised: "I can't tell that your slutty appearance is actually full of infatuation."

"Not anymore. When I met a beauty like you in the early years, I would definitely pursue her. But now that I'm old, I have no interest." Li Xiaoming fell into inexplicable sadness.

Saint Assad reacted immediately.

"Wait a minute, why are we talking about our relationship? This plot is completely wrong."

"Hey, you're right. I was stupid, so there's a question I haven't understood yet. If you have ribbons wrapped around the soles of your feet, won't they get hot when you walk on the sand?"

Li Xiaoming finally asked his biggest question.

"You are really a man with tricky angles. Well, I'm not sure. Anyway, when I woke up, my shoes were gone. I wonder why your feet feel hot when you step on the sand."

Saint Assad lowered her head and looked at the dangling feet.

"Haha, this is kind of embarrassing humor. I should have a pair of shoes in my backpack for you to use. The size may not match, but it will definitely not burn your feet so much. Just bring something to cushion your feet."

Li Xiaoming took out the pair of shoes given by the mysterious girl from his backpack.

Saint Assad shook her hand quickly. "No, these shoes look expensive, and they are usually given to boyfriends by their girlfriends."

Li Xiaoming scratched his hair and said, "What? These shoes have this meaning. I simply thought they were just a bit irritating to my feet. It's okay to put them on. They still have some insulation effect. Otherwise, if you fall to the ground one day, I will have to carry you." Follow you everywhere."

"Okay, but I can't ask for your things in vain. By the way, I'll exchange things with you. This is fair." Saint Assad said with some distress.

Li Xiaoming became interested to see what else the other party could come up with when his hands were empty. Could it be that... it was a bit exciting.

Don't get me wrong, I mean the other party sent me the IOU as collateral.

Saint Assad took off her tattered coat, revealing her skin like gelatin on her shoulders.

Li Xiaoming panicked at that time and quickly advised: "Girl, you can't do it, you can't do it. In this case, I will be sorry for my fiancée, although I am strong-willed..."

"Huh? What are you thinking about? It's just that you don't feel comfortable taking things."

As soon as he finished speaking, he took off the necklace from his neck and rubbed it gently with his fingers.

With a flash of blue light, something the size of a rabbit appeared on his hand.

"Damn it, Desert Locust. Wait, you actually have a space treasure."

Li Xiaoming never expected that the thing around the other person's neck was actually a physical space. It seemed that the other person's identity was higher than what he had guessed.

Saint Assad raised the necklace in her hand and asked.

"Do you know this thing? At that time, a locust fell in front of me, and then I touched it out of curiosity. As a result, it disappeared and entered the necklace."

Li Xiaoming said: "If you encounter bugs or the like in the future, just ignore them and don't take advantage of them. I fainted at that time and couldn't save you. If something happens to you, we will both be dead."

She asked curiously: "Why? And how did you know there was a death trap there?"

Li Xiaoming replied: "I saw it online and guessed it based on the environment. The desert bug is very aggressive, with super speed and super attack ability, and can tear animals in half instantly.

"This may be the happiest ending for the prey. If they are just bitten at first, they will be dragged into the sandworm's cave and suffer nightmares, so do you know how thrilling it is?"

Li Xiaoming was not allowed to educate the other party on the dangers of desert creatures.

Saint Assad clapped her hands and said, "I see, isn't the price as a thank you gift enough? This desert locust is indeed a bit perfunctory. I can give you this necklace."

Looking at the woman's sincere eyes, Li Xiaoming suspected that the other party was testing him.

Although this physical space is really, really expensive, it is almost impossible to buy it if you have money.

But he said to give it to the other party because he didn't know the value of this thing. After all, he was a little stupid.

Fortunately, I met a gentleman like myself. I definitely can't take it. Who knows if this thing is a family relic, and the other party's elders may want it back.

Maybe it also has a body-worn positioning function. Who can stand the crime of theft and robbery?

"No, no, I'll take that locust. I heard it's very high in protein. Do you have any objections to having this for breakfast tomorrow?"

Li Xiaoming took the insect with some embarrassment.

Saint Assad said in surprise: "Eat? Aren't you going to use this insect as a weapon or something? Oh, God of Holy Light, this is too scary."

Li Xiaoming felt that his thoughts seemed a little different from those of the other party.

"You can use them all. After all, it is hard-earned protein. I heard it tastes similar to crayfish. It can also beautify the skin, retain water and cool down. I don't know if it is true. The price sold online is quite high. ."

"Hmph, it sounds so disgusting to make food with these bugs. You should eat alone tomorrow, and I'll just eat the cookies. If you don't think it's enough, I got fifteen or six more. I originally wanted to sell them to homeless people. Merchant, see if you can exchange it for something useful."

Saint Assad said with some disgust.

When Li Xiaoming thought about it, it seemed that this girl had some economic sense. If you really meet a wandering businessman, it will be much more convenient to give him some money and ask him to help lead the way.

"Okay, don't be greedy then, and put the necklace around your neck away. Don't let others see it, so as not to be tempted by money. Your face will also have to be taken care of tomorrow, just in case you meet As for the sand thieves, the situation is not good either.”
