After the strongest Alpha is reborn
Chapter 88
During this period of time, Qi Bai's sleeping appearance has been very honest, so Ash also felt that Qi Bai would be so quiet today.
When Qi Bai started to mutter to himself, Yashi thought he woke up and had already thought about how to apologize, but he didn't let go of Qi Bai's body.
Fortunately, Qi Bai was just talking in his sleep.
Yashi listened secretly for a while, and found that Qi Bai's sleep talk did not have any real content, sometimes he was babbling, sometimes he was cursing in a low voice, but most of all, he called another person's name.
Yashi leaned over to try to hear what the name was, and Qi Bai's face just turned around...
The neurotoxin hadn't occurred for a long time, and the good night's sleep even made Qi Bai nervous: Is he already dead, that's why he lives so comfortably?
Even without the interference of neurotoxins, Qi Bai in his sleep would still unconsciously grab Lu Xun's hand, climb his shoulders, smell his scent, dawdle between Lu Xun's neck, when he was confused He would pout his lips and ask Lu Xun to kiss him.
When Qi Bai wakes up, he finds that all tenderness is a dream, hugs are dreams, kisses are also dreams.
He was already used to this, he got up from the ground and stretched, looking at Yash who was still sleeping peacefully next to him.
The sky is still like night, the fire has been extinguished, Qi Bai can only tiptoe to find wood to light the fire again.
He touched it and found that the suit was completely dry, so he took it off, walked up to Ash, and put it on him.Then go outside to look for today's firewood.
Qi Bai couldn't see his face, but he guessed that he didn't look very good, because he just woke up from a gentle dream, and he didn't have Liuqian, Feng Siliu, or even Xun Chaoxuanji and Zhang Yanwu by his side.Everything he knew was gone.
While sucking his sour nose, he climbed up the tree and pulled the branches, leaves and bark without giving up, holding them in his arms and preparing to make the best use of them.
Qi Bai repeatedly told himself that only by living can he have the hope of going back, and only by going back can he have the hope of seeing him and them.
So he went all out and jumped from one tree to another, full of energy.
Qi Bai was so busy all by himself that he didn't notice at all that beside the extinguished fire not far away, Yash, who was pretending to be asleep, had already opened his eyes.
Yash put his hand on the corner of his lips, as if thinking about something, then raised his eyelids, and couldn't bear to look away for a moment.
Just when Qi Bai was about to jump off, he suddenly saw figures of people several miles away from a high place.
Qi Bai immediately realized that the group of people should be coming towards Zhongquan.
He made a general observation and determined that there were no less than 20 of them. From the ragged and shabby attire, it was almost certain that they should be the natives of the Sixth Continent.
The back of Qi Bai's head went numb—the scene of these people living in the poor mountains and rivers eating the corpses of their own kind was still vivid in his memory.
He quickly jumped from the tree and ran towards Ash, shouting at the top of his voice as he ran, "Get dressed, we have to go."
Yash stood up obediently. He has now learned how to coexist peacefully with this strange costume, and he put it on quickly.
Seeing that Qi Bai didn't forget to pick up a few fruits and put them in his pocket in the panic, he quietly pursed his lips and smiled.
"Come." Qi Bai packed up his things, stood in front of Yashi and bowed down.
Yashi wanted to refuse, but Qi Bai sternly dismissed him: "Your injury can't walk, and the scab on your leg will burst open with one step. If this is the case, will the year of the monkey be better?"
Yashi's injury is not good, Qi Bai is always embarrassed to abandon him and run away.So he can only take care of Ash as much as possible.
After hearing what he said, Yashi stopped being stubborn, or maybe he was afraid that Qi Bai would be really angry, so he obediently fell on Qi Bai's back.
Qi Bai didn't go directly towards the altar, but made a little way, and walked from the other side of the tomb spring to the valley south of Tangheluo Mountain.
Beasts are often seen there, so the slaves from the Six Continents will not approach it.
Qi Bai is not worried about animals, he is not afraid of blood beasts that mutate after 3 years, these unmutated beasts are just gadgets in his eyes.
He walked carefully step by step, for fear that Ash would fall, and if Ash was injured for a hundred days, he would not even think about leaving.
But Yash was so peaceful that he lay on his back and remained motionless.
After turning over the hillside and standing at the highest point to go down, Qi Bai stopped, put Yash down, turned around and looked in the direction of Zhongquan.
The place where they camped out yesterday was within sight, and the group of people had reached the high wall.
Qi Bai pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked: "What are they going to do?"
Ash followed his gaze and saw that the slaves of the Sixth Continent religiously placed a skinned beast in the center of the broken wall.
Someone lit torches and stuck them in front of the bones.
"Sacrifice." Ash said.
"In this ruin?" Qi Bai knew that people in these continents had the habit of holding sacrifices, but he heard that the sixth continent did not have its own altar.
Apparently, Ash didn't know much either.
He was imprisoned in the Blackwater Grotto for ten years, and he didn't know much more than Qi Bai.
Qi Bai frowned, standing there motionless.
Yash thought he was in a daze at first, until he heard Qi Bai ask: "What is the World Extinguishing Star?"
Ash was a little surprised: "You... how do you know?"
"They said it." Qi Bai pointed at the people who were worshiping the nameless belief, and then explained, "I have good hearing, and I can still hear it at this distance. So what is it?"
This kind of ability, which sounds incredible, is not taken seriously by Qi Bai, and Ash secretly feels terrified.
"It's a prophecy left by our ancestors." Yash twitched his chin and said softly, "When the World Extinguishing Star is born, the end will come."
"Oh, so the savior is here to save the doomsday?" Qi Bai raised his eyebrows, continued to listen for a while, and then said casually, "Since your ancestors have prophesied, why don't you believe what your father said? the end of
Yash was silent for a moment, and Qi Bo thought that this question made him feel embarrassed, so he raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "I'll ask casually, and I won't say anything if I don't want to."
"Because Nabaiti appeared a hundred years ago." Yash suddenly said, "People believe that the appearance of the envoy is the protection of the earth by the gods. Therefore, the end will never come."
"Oh~" Qi Bai shrugged and said meaningfully, "It turns out that Baiti refuses to admit the doomsday because it will affect her status."
Ash is not talking.
After a short period of silence, Qi Bai suddenly covered his mouth and exclaimed in a low voice, "My God."
Ash looked at him nervously: "What?"
"them……"
Qi Bai rubbed his eyes in disbelief, "They are committing suicide?!"
Yashi also looked over immediately, and then was shocked by the picture in front of him——
The people of the Sixth Continent bowed their heads in front of the broken walls of their collapsed temples, and then inserted the sharpened wood in their hands into their hearts.
So one by one, they all fell in a pool of blood.
Ash trembled all over.
He had never seen such a weird sacrificial ceremony.
Qi Bai was no better than him, clutching his stomach and wanting to vomit.
"Why..." Yash looked at those people in confusion.
"We have to go, it's too unlucky here!" Qi Bai retched for a while, then grabbed Ash's hand and wanted to carry him.
Ash stood where he was, seemingly petrified.
"Why?" he repeated the question, "Why did they die?"
Qi Bai sighed, and in the end he could only tell him what he had heard: "This ceremony is to pray for the doomsday... Now that the natural disasters in the Five Continents are getting worse, they attribute all these to the imminent birth of the World Extinct Star. I don't know I know why, but they... they committed suicide, as if to sacrifice their bodies to the World Extinguishing Star."
Yashi's eyes were a little scarlet, he looked at Qi Bai, waiting for the final answer.
Qi Bai hesitated for a while, but still told him: "These people hope that the other five continents will be condemned by God, and that the slaughter brought by the doomsday will kill all those who enslaved them. For this, they sacrificed their lives No hesitation. In the end, there will only be this... Slave Continent. No, they gave this place a new name before they died. Scourge Dynasty. Their king is the World Destroyer Star who will soon come to this world."
Yashi leaned on Qi Bai's back, his heart that should have been frightened by the sacrificial ceremony unexpectedly beat peacefully.
Yashi felt that Qi Bai's body had a vague fragrance, which would make him feel calm and comfortable, so he sniffed this scent quietly, and buried his breath into Qi Bai's neck little by little.
Since it was close to the altar, it was easy to be spotted by Nabaiti, so Qi Bai didn't take him too far, but found a cave in the valley near the water.
The environmental conditions here are not as good as Zhongquan, and it is not easy to find wood for the fire, Qi Bai can only go a long way to find it.When he came back, he was sweating profusely, as if he had done strenuous exercise.
Ash saw that he was not only holding the wood in his arms, but also holding two snakes in his hands
"..."
Yash opened his mouth, showing all the surprises on his face.
"Have you never seen a snake?" Qi Bai handed the snake wrapped around his hand to Ash.
Ash flinched back.
It's not that he hasn't seen snakes before, but the snakes in the sixth continent are more poisonous, and they are more terrifying than those large beasts.No one has ever dared to catch a snake with bare hands like this.
"Want...to eat this?"
"Yes, this is delicious when baked."
"poisonous."
Ash's fearful and restrained look successfully teased Qi Bai, who said, "Yes, it's poisonous. If we eat it, we'll die here. Do you want to eat it or not?"
Yash bit his lip and nodded seriously.
"Hahaha!" Qi Bai laughed while holding his belly, then turned his back and began to process the snake venom, cutting off the snake's head with a thin stone slice, digging out all the internal organs, and said, "Don't worry, I'll eat you to death I am responsible."
Yash was behind him, with his chin buried low. Although there was little expression on his face, his eyes overflowed with anticipation.
It seems that he really hopes to eat himself to death, so that Qi Bai can truly take responsibility.
It's a pity that Ash's wish came true.
Qi Bai handled the snake venom very cleanly, not only did not poison the two to death, but also allowed Yashi to eat cooked meat for the first time in his life.
Yash never thought that food could be so delicious. He always thought that food was used to satisfy his hunger. Before he was nine years old, he could occasionally eat some cooked food, but after entering the Blackwater Cave, there was no more.
Like fire-roasted snake meat, it is something that has never been thought of.
He ate quickly, taking two or three bites, and then realized that he hadn't tasted anything yet.
"Finished?"
"Ah."
"Are you full?"
"Ah."
Qi Bo snorted, threw a few fruits to him, and said, "You're not full after seeing it, eat this first, and I'll grab it for you after I have a rest."
Ash licked his mouth and nodded slightly.He picked up the fruit, and ate it in small bites, bit by bit, for fear that he would miss the taste again.
"Ten."
Qi Bai gave him a new name again, Yash didn't mind, he hummed as a response.
"What do you think of what happened just now?"
Yash knew that Qi Bai was talking about the collective sacrifice of that group of people.
Although he was shocked by the picture, he didn't actually have much thought.
Not to mention the other five continents, but the sixth continent has always been full of death and blood, including Yashi himself, always hovering on the edge of life and death.
The shock he received may not be as great as that of Qi Bai.
So he shook his head and continued to eat the fruit.
"Haven't you ever thought about what to do if there really is a doomsday?"
Qi Bai asked another question, "If you were going to die soon, is there anything you would like to do in particular?"
When Qi Bai was talking, Yash stared at his mouth, opening and closing, and even Yash's heart beat in unison.
"No."
Yash's answer is very uniform.
Qi Bai sighed, gritted his teeth and stuffed the roasted snake meat into his mouth, stood up and said:
"If you don't have it, you don't have it. It doesn't matter if you don't have it. There is no regret in life or death-I will catch the snake, and you wait here."
He said and left.
Until his back was sunk into a deeper blackness and he couldn't see anymore, Yashi suddenly took the fruit from his mouth and answered Qi Bai's question again in a low voice.
"There are still."
But no one listened, so Ash didn't finish.
This place is similar to Qi Bai's idea, there are many wild beasts, so no humans come close.
With Qi Bai's skills, it was quite easy to deal with these things, so for three consecutive days, Yashi ate delicious barbecue with him.
Most of the time, this valley is empty and quiet, and when you speak loudly, there will be an echo. Most of the plants are plants that grow in the cracks between the mountain walls, and they taste a bit bitter.
The two of them, in a short period of time, have figured out the terrain and environment here, as well as all the edible animals and plants.
Ash even began to imagine if a house should be built here, should it be made of stone or wood.
In his opinion, the days without outsiders disturbing, with food, drink and cypresses can go on for a long time.
It's a pity that Qi Bai doesn't think so.
On the fourth day, Qi Bai started to lose his temper.
He squatted in front of Yash, raised his eyebrows, pulled away Yash's trouser legs, and complained: "Why is it not good? How can it be not good at all?!"
Ash flinched slightly, trying to pull his legs back.
But Qi Bai was furious, pointing at the wound that was still oozing blood and began to mutter: "Can you scab over today? Can you? I have never seen such a wound like yours since I grew up! After several days of healing, Not only is it not getting better, but it’s getting worse, what do you mean? You can’t live a good life, right?!”
The first thing Qi Bai does when he wakes up every day is to check Yash's injury, even if it's just a scab, at least don't show any deep visible bone ulcers, so that people can feel that it is slowly healing, that's enough.
Unfortunately, things backfired, and the wound was gradually getting worse.
It is impossible for Qi Bai to take care of Ash for the rest of his life, and he will go crazy if he takes three more days.His heart that wanted to go back could no longer wait any longer.
"I'm sorry." Compared with the impatient Qi Bai, Yashi was much quieter and more obedient, bearing Qi Bai's anger, he only said, "It will be fine soon."
"I don't think so, why don't I send you to Nabaiti?" Qi Bai didn't want to lose Ash, but the injury looked really shocking, and he was very afraid that Ash's leg would be disabled.
"It's going to be okay, it's going to be okay," Ash insisted, "I've tried many times, and it's okay."
Qi Bai frowned, feeling anxious and helpless.
In the end, he chose to believe in Ash one more time: "Then we will rest here for two more days, and let you eat meat for another two days."
Yash said yes, and then gently put down the trouser legs, not wanting to expose the injury to Qi Bai's eyes any longer.
When he lowered his head, he didn't notice the change in Qi Bai's eyes.
This time, Qi Bai paid attention.
One day, after sleeping until the last half of the night, the wind suddenly blew up.
The cave was too shallow and would still be blown by the wind, Qi Bai turned over cautiously, Yash took off his coat and covered him, and he walked outside lightly.
Yash bent down and found something on the ground, then picked up a stone, hugged it aside, and sat down quietly.
Suddenly, Qi Bai who was behind Yash opened his eyes, looking in an unbiased direction, it was Yash whose back was turned to him.
Qi Bai's eyes were opened falsely, and his gaze sank.
The moment Yash raised his hand, his voice sounded:
"Do you do this every day?"
Yashi trembled all over, the stone in his hand was snatched away by Qi Bai before he could throw it.
He opened his mouth, but no words of explanation came out.
Qi Bai squatted down, got very close to him, and asked him again: "I asked you if you do this every day—while I'm asleep, you try to find a way to make your injury worse. Pick off the knot and do it." scabs, stone the healing skin. Huh?"
While talking, Qi Bai suddenly sneered expressionlessly.
Ash was more frightened than ever.
He was afraid that Qi Bai would be disappointed in him, and that he would not be forgiven by Qi Bai.
"You are so capable." Qi Bai threw the stone in his hand and stretched out his hand suddenly.
Yashi closed his eyes, thinking that Qi Bai was going to hit him.He was ready to accept Qi Bai's anger.
But Qi Bai didn't hit him, but stroked his head for a moment.Very gentle, without any signs of getting angry.
"Do you really think this will keep me here?"
"I have no idea……"
"You know." Qi Bai withdrew his hand and said, "Of course you know that you can't keep me in this way. So, why do you still want to do this?"
"sorry."
"I've heard enough of your sorry."
Qi Bai rubbed his eyes tiredly, sat down in front of Ash, faced him face to face, and said slowly, "Have you ever thought that the one you are most sorry for is not me, but yourself."
"Why don't you cherish yourself? Whether you trapped yourself in the black water cave or hurt yourself in this cruel way, have you never thought about yourself from the beginning to the end?"
Ash hoped that Qi Bo would scold him, beat him, turn away after getting angry at him, leave him behind, and never look back.
Because Yashi couldn't control himself, he hoped that Qi Bai could do something that he couldn't refuse.
It's a pity that Qi Bai has a soft heart and can't be a bad person.
Qi Bai reasoned with him, which made Ash suddenly feel scared.Because he was afraid of disappointing Qi Bai's gentleness - he would never learn to cherish himself.
"Ash, I will leave tomorrow. Whether your injury is better or not, you will go."
Qi Bai took a deep breath and said to Ash, "I don't want you to go back to that ghost place after I leave. I don't even want you to torture yourself in other ways. So let's have a good chat."
Ash looked at Qi Bai and said, "Okay."
"You want to keep me. Actually, I guessed it. In the past, you didn't have anyone who accompanied you normally. Nabaiti, Majia, or other Kaila people, they probably weren't very friendly to you. I Ask yourself that you are not a good person, but you should be better than them, so you want to follow me. I understand all this."
Ash listened to him quietly without making a sound.
"You know, I was the same as you a long time ago. I think life is very meaningless. I always rush first in any dangerous thing. I block knives for everyone, and I never regret my life, because I think it doesn't matter if I die. No one will cry for me, and I won't miss anyone else."
Qi Bai suddenly thought of something, smiled, and then said, "But life is very strange. When I found out that I was really going to die, I suddenly met someone I wanted to cherish very much. So I began to hope to live, Start doing things over and over again that didn't make sense before."
"I started to eat well, sleep well, and restrain the urge to hurt myself. I wanted to live longer, to love the person I liked enough, to do everything I wanted to do, and it would not be too late to die. But at that time But I realized it was a bit late, because life and death are no longer in my control."
"Because I never cherish my own life, my fate rewards me with bad luck again and again. But I still don't give up, even though I am sitting here, in an unfamiliar environment, in a confused way forward, and there is always one You who tormented me. But I didn't give up."
Qi Bai showed a big smile towards Ash, and said: "It's because he left me a word, that is hope. In a person's life, as long as there is hope once, it will not be considered in vain."
On this day, Qi Bo talked a lot. From the beginning, he just wanted to comfort Ash, and later, he couldn't hold back, talking about his past, his stupid mercenary team, and his vision for the future. imagine.
He told Ash that one day you will meet someone who makes you want to live, and at that time you will desperately want to cherish yourself.
Ash looked into his eyes from beginning to end, but Qi Bai avoided his eyes.
I don't know how long it took, but it was so long that even the color of the aurora began to change.
Qi Bai finally planned to end, he finally asked Yash: "...you tell me now, will your injury heal?"
Sometimes, the answer I think in my heart is not necessarily correct, but I always choose the most suitable one.
So Yash chose one, so that Qi Bai could rest assured that it was the correct answer.
"Will do."
When they woke up the next day, they found that the aurora was faintly showing signs of dissipating.
"Maybe the sun is coming out." Qi Bai said so.
Yashi rejected Qi Bai's suggestion to recite him today. After he stopped hurting himself, the injury really healed very quickly.As soon as he felt it, he had begun to recover visibly with the naked eye.
"I can walk by myself." He said to Qi Bai: "I will take you to Tangheluo Mountain, the road there is very messy."
Qi Bai shook his head, and said bluntly: "Without you, my pace would be faster."
He knew it was hurtful, but if Ash kept following him, it would only become more and more entangled in the end.
Ash looked at him without speaking.There is a clear stubbornness in his eyes.
In the empty valley, a wind suddenly blew up, and the vines were blown open. They stood at the mouth of the path, and finally parted ways.
Just at this moment, the wind became stronger and stronger, and the next moment, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and the torrential rain poured down.
As the stars moved, the sky instantly turned blood red, and the ground began to vibrate continuously.
Qi Bai frowned, and heard the low growls of beasts from a distance, and the birds and beasts became restless.
He dragged Yash involuntarily, put him on his back again, and soon, the beasts started running around.Qi Bai even heard the wailing of humans a few miles away.
"Fuck." He cursed in a low voice, watching a group of eagles suddenly hovering in the sky, and a wild beast ready to attack in the distance.
Yashi was anxious and wanted to get down, but he didn't want to drag Qi Bai down.
At this time, Qi Bai couldn't care so much, and he used his blood power for a long time—since the frequent outbreak of neurotoxins, he didn't do this anymore.
To Qi Bai's surprise, he used the power of his blood today very smoothly. Even with Yashi on his back, he could walk like flying and move nimbly.
Encountering a wolf that bumped into him head-on on the way, Yashi almost lost his breath, but Qi Bai just lifted his foot and kicked it, and it was resolved.
"..." Yash's throat tightened.
It wasn't because Qi Bai's actions were too rough that frightened him, but...
He smelled the sweet fragrance from Qi Bai's body, which became more and more intense.
Until Qi Bai carried him on his back and crossed Tangheluo Mountain on foot, and only took a few hours to complete the journey that would have taken three days, Yash finally couldn't help shouting out.
"stop!"
Qi Bai was taken aback when he whispered in his ear, but the surging blood power in his body seemed unable to stop.
Yash yelled again and again until Qi Bai's mind started to faint. Finally, in the woods at the foot of the mountain, he tripped over tangled vines and fell to the ground with Yash.
After Yashi rolled, he didn't dare to delay at all, turned over and helped Qi Bai on the ground.
That's not an illusion, Qi Bai's body is exuding a smell so strong that it can't be ignored.
This smell is not like the fragrance of flowers and wine, which can be lost if you go far away, but like the ubiquitous wind, which almost wraps Ash's whole body in it.
His throat rolled, his heart seemed to explode, and the blood all over his body suddenly rushed to the back of his neck—Ash had never experienced this before, and he felt like a burning fire.
And the only way to extinguish him is to embed Qi Bai's whole body into his blood.
The author has something to say:
This chapter may need minor revision later.
There will be more tomorrow!In order to let [-] live a good life as soon as possible, I am really working hard.
When Qi Bai started to mutter to himself, Yashi thought he woke up and had already thought about how to apologize, but he didn't let go of Qi Bai's body.
Fortunately, Qi Bai was just talking in his sleep.
Yashi listened secretly for a while, and found that Qi Bai's sleep talk did not have any real content, sometimes he was babbling, sometimes he was cursing in a low voice, but most of all, he called another person's name.
Yashi leaned over to try to hear what the name was, and Qi Bai's face just turned around...
The neurotoxin hadn't occurred for a long time, and the good night's sleep even made Qi Bai nervous: Is he already dead, that's why he lives so comfortably?
Even without the interference of neurotoxins, Qi Bai in his sleep would still unconsciously grab Lu Xun's hand, climb his shoulders, smell his scent, dawdle between Lu Xun's neck, when he was confused He would pout his lips and ask Lu Xun to kiss him.
When Qi Bai wakes up, he finds that all tenderness is a dream, hugs are dreams, kisses are also dreams.
He was already used to this, he got up from the ground and stretched, looking at Yash who was still sleeping peacefully next to him.
The sky is still like night, the fire has been extinguished, Qi Bai can only tiptoe to find wood to light the fire again.
He touched it and found that the suit was completely dry, so he took it off, walked up to Ash, and put it on him.Then go outside to look for today's firewood.
Qi Bai couldn't see his face, but he guessed that he didn't look very good, because he just woke up from a gentle dream, and he didn't have Liuqian, Feng Siliu, or even Xun Chaoxuanji and Zhang Yanwu by his side.Everything he knew was gone.
While sucking his sour nose, he climbed up the tree and pulled the branches, leaves and bark without giving up, holding them in his arms and preparing to make the best use of them.
Qi Bai repeatedly told himself that only by living can he have the hope of going back, and only by going back can he have the hope of seeing him and them.
So he went all out and jumped from one tree to another, full of energy.
Qi Bai was so busy all by himself that he didn't notice at all that beside the extinguished fire not far away, Yash, who was pretending to be asleep, had already opened his eyes.
Yash put his hand on the corner of his lips, as if thinking about something, then raised his eyelids, and couldn't bear to look away for a moment.
Just when Qi Bai was about to jump off, he suddenly saw figures of people several miles away from a high place.
Qi Bai immediately realized that the group of people should be coming towards Zhongquan.
He made a general observation and determined that there were no less than 20 of them. From the ragged and shabby attire, it was almost certain that they should be the natives of the Sixth Continent.
The back of Qi Bai's head went numb—the scene of these people living in the poor mountains and rivers eating the corpses of their own kind was still vivid in his memory.
He quickly jumped from the tree and ran towards Ash, shouting at the top of his voice as he ran, "Get dressed, we have to go."
Yash stood up obediently. He has now learned how to coexist peacefully with this strange costume, and he put it on quickly.
Seeing that Qi Bai didn't forget to pick up a few fruits and put them in his pocket in the panic, he quietly pursed his lips and smiled.
"Come." Qi Bai packed up his things, stood in front of Yashi and bowed down.
Yashi wanted to refuse, but Qi Bai sternly dismissed him: "Your injury can't walk, and the scab on your leg will burst open with one step. If this is the case, will the year of the monkey be better?"
Yashi's injury is not good, Qi Bai is always embarrassed to abandon him and run away.So he can only take care of Ash as much as possible.
After hearing what he said, Yashi stopped being stubborn, or maybe he was afraid that Qi Bai would be really angry, so he obediently fell on Qi Bai's back.
Qi Bai didn't go directly towards the altar, but made a little way, and walked from the other side of the tomb spring to the valley south of Tangheluo Mountain.
Beasts are often seen there, so the slaves from the Six Continents will not approach it.
Qi Bai is not worried about animals, he is not afraid of blood beasts that mutate after 3 years, these unmutated beasts are just gadgets in his eyes.
He walked carefully step by step, for fear that Ash would fall, and if Ash was injured for a hundred days, he would not even think about leaving.
But Yash was so peaceful that he lay on his back and remained motionless.
After turning over the hillside and standing at the highest point to go down, Qi Bai stopped, put Yash down, turned around and looked in the direction of Zhongquan.
The place where they camped out yesterday was within sight, and the group of people had reached the high wall.
Qi Bai pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked: "What are they going to do?"
Ash followed his gaze and saw that the slaves of the Sixth Continent religiously placed a skinned beast in the center of the broken wall.
Someone lit torches and stuck them in front of the bones.
"Sacrifice." Ash said.
"In this ruin?" Qi Bai knew that people in these continents had the habit of holding sacrifices, but he heard that the sixth continent did not have its own altar.
Apparently, Ash didn't know much either.
He was imprisoned in the Blackwater Grotto for ten years, and he didn't know much more than Qi Bai.
Qi Bai frowned, standing there motionless.
Yash thought he was in a daze at first, until he heard Qi Bai ask: "What is the World Extinguishing Star?"
Ash was a little surprised: "You... how do you know?"
"They said it." Qi Bai pointed at the people who were worshiping the nameless belief, and then explained, "I have good hearing, and I can still hear it at this distance. So what is it?"
This kind of ability, which sounds incredible, is not taken seriously by Qi Bai, and Ash secretly feels terrified.

"Oh, so the savior is here to save the doomsday?" Qi Bai raised his eyebrows, continued to listen for a while, and then said casually, "Since your ancestors have prophesied, why don't you believe what your father said? the end of
Yash was silent for a moment, and Qi Bo thought that this question made him feel embarrassed, so he raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "I'll ask casually, and I won't say anything if I don't want to."
"Because Nabaiti appeared a hundred years ago." Yash suddenly said, "People believe that the appearance of the envoy is the protection of the earth by the gods. Therefore, the end will never come."
"Oh~" Qi Bai shrugged and said meaningfully, "It turns out that Baiti refuses to admit the doomsday because it will affect her status."
Ash is not talking.
After a short period of silence, Qi Bai suddenly covered his mouth and exclaimed in a low voice, "My God."
Ash looked at him nervously: "What?"
"them……"
Qi Bai rubbed his eyes in disbelief, "They are committing suicide?!"
Yashi also looked over immediately, and then was shocked by the picture in front of him——
The people of the Sixth Continent bowed their heads in front of the broken walls of their collapsed temples, and then inserted the sharpened wood in their hands into their hearts.
So one by one, they all fell in a pool of blood.
Ash trembled all over.
He had never seen such a weird sacrificial ceremony.
Qi Bai was no better than him, clutching his stomach and wanting to vomit.
"Why..." Yash looked at those people in confusion.
"We have to go, it's too unlucky here!" Qi Bai retched for a while, then grabbed Ash's hand and wanted to carry him.
Ash stood where he was, seemingly petrified.
"Why?" he repeated the question, "Why did they die?"
Qi Bai sighed, and in the end he could only tell him what he had heard: "This ceremony is to pray for the doomsday... Now that the natural disasters in the Five Continents are getting worse, they attribute all these to the imminent birth of the World Extinct Star. I don't know I know why, but they... they committed suicide, as if to sacrifice their bodies to the World Extinguishing Star."
Yashi's eyes were a little scarlet, he looked at Qi Bai, waiting for the final answer.
Qi Bai hesitated for a while, but still told him: "These people hope that the other five continents will be condemned by God, and that the slaughter brought by the doomsday will kill all those who enslaved them. For this, they sacrificed their lives No hesitation. In the end, there will only be this... Slave Continent. No, they gave this place a new name before they died. Scourge Dynasty. Their king is the World Destroyer Star who will soon come to this world."
Yashi leaned on Qi Bai's back, his heart that should have been frightened by the sacrificial ceremony unexpectedly beat peacefully.
Yashi felt that Qi Bai's body had a vague fragrance, which would make him feel calm and comfortable, so he sniffed this scent quietly, and buried his breath into Qi Bai's neck little by little.
Since it was close to the altar, it was easy to be spotted by Nabaiti, so Qi Bai didn't take him too far, but found a cave in the valley near the water.
The environmental conditions here are not as good as Zhongquan, and it is not easy to find wood for the fire, Qi Bai can only go a long way to find it.When he came back, he was sweating profusely, as if he had done strenuous exercise.
Ash saw that he was not only holding the wood in his arms, but also holding two snakes in his hands
"..."
Yash opened his mouth, showing all the surprises on his face.
"Have you never seen a snake?" Qi Bai handed the snake wrapped around his hand to Ash.
Ash flinched back.
It's not that he hasn't seen snakes before, but the snakes in the sixth continent are more poisonous, and they are more terrifying than those large beasts.No one has ever dared to catch a snake with bare hands like this.
"Want...to eat this?"
"Yes, this is delicious when baked."
"poisonous."
Ash's fearful and restrained look successfully teased Qi Bai, who said, "Yes, it's poisonous. If we eat it, we'll die here. Do you want to eat it or not?"
Yash bit his lip and nodded seriously.
"Hahaha!" Qi Bai laughed while holding his belly, then turned his back and began to process the snake venom, cutting off the snake's head with a thin stone slice, digging out all the internal organs, and said, "Don't worry, I'll eat you to death I am responsible."
Yash was behind him, with his chin buried low. Although there was little expression on his face, his eyes overflowed with anticipation.
It seems that he really hopes to eat himself to death, so that Qi Bai can truly take responsibility.
It's a pity that Ash's wish came true.
Qi Bai handled the snake venom very cleanly, not only did not poison the two to death, but also allowed Yashi to eat cooked meat for the first time in his life.
Yash never thought that food could be so delicious. He always thought that food was used to satisfy his hunger. Before he was nine years old, he could occasionally eat some cooked food, but after entering the Blackwater Cave, there was no more.
Like fire-roasted snake meat, it is something that has never been thought of.
He ate quickly, taking two or three bites, and then realized that he hadn't tasted anything yet.
"Finished?"
"Ah."
"Are you full?"
"Ah."
Qi Bo snorted, threw a few fruits to him, and said, "You're not full after seeing it, eat this first, and I'll grab it for you after I have a rest."
Ash licked his mouth and nodded slightly.He picked up the fruit, and ate it in small bites, bit by bit, for fear that he would miss the taste again.
"Ten."
Qi Bai gave him a new name again, Yash didn't mind, he hummed as a response.
"What do you think of what happened just now?"
Yash knew that Qi Bai was talking about the collective sacrifice of that group of people.
Although he was shocked by the picture, he didn't actually have much thought.
Not to mention the other five continents, but the sixth continent has always been full of death and blood, including Yashi himself, always hovering on the edge of life and death.
The shock he received may not be as great as that of Qi Bai.
So he shook his head and continued to eat the fruit.
"Haven't you ever thought about what to do if there really is a doomsday?"
Qi Bai asked another question, "If you were going to die soon, is there anything you would like to do in particular?"
When Qi Bai was talking, Yash stared at his mouth, opening and closing, and even Yash's heart beat in unison.
"No."
Yash's answer is very uniform.
Qi Bai sighed, gritted his teeth and stuffed the roasted snake meat into his mouth, stood up and said:
"If you don't have it, you don't have it. It doesn't matter if you don't have it. There is no regret in life or death-I will catch the snake, and you wait here."
He said and left.
Until his back was sunk into a deeper blackness and he couldn't see anymore, Yashi suddenly took the fruit from his mouth and answered Qi Bai's question again in a low voice.
"There are still."
But no one listened, so Ash didn't finish.
This place is similar to Qi Bai's idea, there are many wild beasts, so no humans come close.
With Qi Bai's skills, it was quite easy to deal with these things, so for three consecutive days, Yashi ate delicious barbecue with him.
Most of the time, this valley is empty and quiet, and when you speak loudly, there will be an echo. Most of the plants are plants that grow in the cracks between the mountain walls, and they taste a bit bitter.
The two of them, in a short period of time, have figured out the terrain and environment here, as well as all the edible animals and plants.
Ash even began to imagine if a house should be built here, should it be made of stone or wood.
In his opinion, the days without outsiders disturbing, with food, drink and cypresses can go on for a long time.
It's a pity that Qi Bai doesn't think so.
On the fourth day, Qi Bai started to lose his temper.
He squatted in front of Yash, raised his eyebrows, pulled away Yash's trouser legs, and complained: "Why is it not good? How can it be not good at all?!"
Ash flinched slightly, trying to pull his legs back.
But Qi Bai was furious, pointing at the wound that was still oozing blood and began to mutter: "Can you scab over today? Can you? I have never seen such a wound like yours since I grew up! After several days of healing, Not only is it not getting better, but it’s getting worse, what do you mean? You can’t live a good life, right?!”
The first thing Qi Bai does when he wakes up every day is to check Yash's injury, even if it's just a scab, at least don't show any deep visible bone ulcers, so that people can feel that it is slowly healing, that's enough.
Unfortunately, things backfired, and the wound was gradually getting worse.
It is impossible for Qi Bai to take care of Ash for the rest of his life, and he will go crazy if he takes three more days.His heart that wanted to go back could no longer wait any longer.
"I'm sorry." Compared with the impatient Qi Bai, Yashi was much quieter and more obedient, bearing Qi Bai's anger, he only said, "It will be fine soon."
"I don't think so, why don't I send you to Nabaiti?" Qi Bai didn't want to lose Ash, but the injury looked really shocking, and he was very afraid that Ash's leg would be disabled.
"It's going to be okay, it's going to be okay," Ash insisted, "I've tried many times, and it's okay."
Qi Bai frowned, feeling anxious and helpless.
In the end, he chose to believe in Ash one more time: "Then we will rest here for two more days, and let you eat meat for another two days."
Yash said yes, and then gently put down the trouser legs, not wanting to expose the injury to Qi Bai's eyes any longer.
When he lowered his head, he didn't notice the change in Qi Bai's eyes.
This time, Qi Bai paid attention.
One day, after sleeping until the last half of the night, the wind suddenly blew up.
The cave was too shallow and would still be blown by the wind, Qi Bai turned over cautiously, Yash took off his coat and covered him, and he walked outside lightly.
Yash bent down and found something on the ground, then picked up a stone, hugged it aside, and sat down quietly.
Suddenly, Qi Bai who was behind Yash opened his eyes, looking in an unbiased direction, it was Yash whose back was turned to him.
Qi Bai's eyes were opened falsely, and his gaze sank.
The moment Yash raised his hand, his voice sounded:
"Do you do this every day?"
Yashi trembled all over, the stone in his hand was snatched away by Qi Bai before he could throw it.
He opened his mouth, but no words of explanation came out.
Qi Bai squatted down, got very close to him, and asked him again: "I asked you if you do this every day—while I'm asleep, you try to find a way to make your injury worse. Pick off the knot and do it." scabs, stone the healing skin. Huh?"
While talking, Qi Bai suddenly sneered expressionlessly.
Ash was more frightened than ever.
He was afraid that Qi Bai would be disappointed in him, and that he would not be forgiven by Qi Bai.
"You are so capable." Qi Bai threw the stone in his hand and stretched out his hand suddenly.
Yashi closed his eyes, thinking that Qi Bai was going to hit him.He was ready to accept Qi Bai's anger.
But Qi Bai didn't hit him, but stroked his head for a moment.Very gentle, without any signs of getting angry.
"Do you really think this will keep me here?"
"I have no idea……"
"You know." Qi Bai withdrew his hand and said, "Of course you know that you can't keep me in this way. So, why do you still want to do this?"
"sorry."
"I've heard enough of your sorry."
Qi Bai rubbed his eyes tiredly, sat down in front of Ash, faced him face to face, and said slowly, "Have you ever thought that the one you are most sorry for is not me, but yourself."
"Why don't you cherish yourself? Whether you trapped yourself in the black water cave or hurt yourself in this cruel way, have you never thought about yourself from the beginning to the end?"
Ash hoped that Qi Bo would scold him, beat him, turn away after getting angry at him, leave him behind, and never look back.
Because Yashi couldn't control himself, he hoped that Qi Bai could do something that he couldn't refuse.
It's a pity that Qi Bai has a soft heart and can't be a bad person.
Qi Bai reasoned with him, which made Ash suddenly feel scared.Because he was afraid of disappointing Qi Bai's gentleness - he would never learn to cherish himself.
"Ash, I will leave tomorrow. Whether your injury is better or not, you will go."
Qi Bai took a deep breath and said to Ash, "I don't want you to go back to that ghost place after I leave. I don't even want you to torture yourself in other ways. So let's have a good chat."
Ash looked at Qi Bai and said, "Okay."
"You want to keep me. Actually, I guessed it. In the past, you didn't have anyone who accompanied you normally. Nabaiti, Majia, or other Kaila people, they probably weren't very friendly to you. I Ask yourself that you are not a good person, but you should be better than them, so you want to follow me. I understand all this."
Ash listened to him quietly without making a sound.
"You know, I was the same as you a long time ago. I think life is very meaningless. I always rush first in any dangerous thing. I block knives for everyone, and I never regret my life, because I think it doesn't matter if I die. No one will cry for me, and I won't miss anyone else."
Qi Bai suddenly thought of something, smiled, and then said, "But life is very strange. When I found out that I was really going to die, I suddenly met someone I wanted to cherish very much. So I began to hope to live, Start doing things over and over again that didn't make sense before."
"I started to eat well, sleep well, and restrain the urge to hurt myself. I wanted to live longer, to love the person I liked enough, to do everything I wanted to do, and it would not be too late to die. But at that time But I realized it was a bit late, because life and death are no longer in my control."
"Because I never cherish my own life, my fate rewards me with bad luck again and again. But I still don't give up, even though I am sitting here, in an unfamiliar environment, in a confused way forward, and there is always one You who tormented me. But I didn't give up."
Qi Bai showed a big smile towards Ash, and said: "It's because he left me a word, that is hope. In a person's life, as long as there is hope once, it will not be considered in vain."
On this day, Qi Bo talked a lot. From the beginning, he just wanted to comfort Ash, and later, he couldn't hold back, talking about his past, his stupid mercenary team, and his vision for the future. imagine.
He told Ash that one day you will meet someone who makes you want to live, and at that time you will desperately want to cherish yourself.
Ash looked into his eyes from beginning to end, but Qi Bai avoided his eyes.
I don't know how long it took, but it was so long that even the color of the aurora began to change.
Qi Bai finally planned to end, he finally asked Yash: "...you tell me now, will your injury heal?"
Sometimes, the answer I think in my heart is not necessarily correct, but I always choose the most suitable one.
So Yash chose one, so that Qi Bai could rest assured that it was the correct answer.
"Will do."
When they woke up the next day, they found that the aurora was faintly showing signs of dissipating.
"Maybe the sun is coming out." Qi Bai said so.
Yashi rejected Qi Bai's suggestion to recite him today. After he stopped hurting himself, the injury really healed very quickly.As soon as he felt it, he had begun to recover visibly with the naked eye.
"I can walk by myself." He said to Qi Bai: "I will take you to Tangheluo Mountain, the road there is very messy."
Qi Bai shook his head, and said bluntly: "Without you, my pace would be faster."
He knew it was hurtful, but if Ash kept following him, it would only become more and more entangled in the end.
Ash looked at him without speaking.There is a clear stubbornness in his eyes.
In the empty valley, a wind suddenly blew up, and the vines were blown open. They stood at the mouth of the path, and finally parted ways.
Just at this moment, the wind became stronger and stronger, and the next moment, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and the torrential rain poured down.
As the stars moved, the sky instantly turned blood red, and the ground began to vibrate continuously.
Qi Bai frowned, and heard the low growls of beasts from a distance, and the birds and beasts became restless.
He dragged Yash involuntarily, put him on his back again, and soon, the beasts started running around.Qi Bai even heard the wailing of humans a few miles away.
"Fuck." He cursed in a low voice, watching a group of eagles suddenly hovering in the sky, and a wild beast ready to attack in the distance.
Yashi was anxious and wanted to get down, but he didn't want to drag Qi Bai down.
At this time, Qi Bai couldn't care so much, and he used his blood power for a long time—since the frequent outbreak of neurotoxins, he didn't do this anymore.
To Qi Bai's surprise, he used the power of his blood today very smoothly. Even with Yashi on his back, he could walk like flying and move nimbly.
Encountering a wolf that bumped into him head-on on the way, Yashi almost lost his breath, but Qi Bai just lifted his foot and kicked it, and it was resolved.
"..." Yash's throat tightened.
It wasn't because Qi Bai's actions were too rough that frightened him, but...
He smelled the sweet fragrance from Qi Bai's body, which became more and more intense.
Until Qi Bai carried him on his back and crossed Tangheluo Mountain on foot, and only took a few hours to complete the journey that would have taken three days, Yash finally couldn't help shouting out.
"stop!"
Qi Bai was taken aback when he whispered in his ear, but the surging blood power in his body seemed unable to stop.
Yash yelled again and again until Qi Bai's mind started to faint. Finally, in the woods at the foot of the mountain, he tripped over tangled vines and fell to the ground with Yash.
After Yashi rolled, he didn't dare to delay at all, turned over and helped Qi Bai on the ground.
That's not an illusion, Qi Bai's body is exuding a smell so strong that it can't be ignored.
This smell is not like the fragrance of flowers and wine, which can be lost if you go far away, but like the ubiquitous wind, which almost wraps Ash's whole body in it.
His throat rolled, his heart seemed to explode, and the blood all over his body suddenly rushed to the back of his neck—Ash had never experienced this before, and he felt like a burning fire.
And the only way to extinguish him is to embed Qi Bai's whole body into his blood.
The author has something to say:
