Sick beauty boss just wants salted fish [different world]

"..."

Bai Wei moved her fingers, as if she wanted to pick up her ID card from the ground.

But the aura on this level of the dark tower is too heavy for her, and it is not easy to get up again after falling, let alone pick up the identity card from the side.

[The lost dog. 】

The voice that emerged from the sea of ​​consciousness sounded like a sigh of ridicule at this moment.

"..." Bai Wei parted her lips, subconsciously wanting to refute that voice, but couldn't speak.The outstretched fingers pulled back little by little, the nails were deep in the palm, and the knuckles were white.

Not reconciled, but in a place of despair.It's like being surrounded by an airtight prison, waiting to die in the silent passage of time.

[Can't stand up at all?You are indeed the one with the worst talent among the children of the Bai family. 】

"..."

Regarding talent, Bai Wei couldn't refute it.The body was pressured by the aura, the flesh and internal organs seemed to be crushed, and the spiritual power to protect the body faded to very little.The physical pain made Bai Wei's consciousness start to feel trance, and the memory in her mind appeared like a reflection.

That incident happened when Bai Wei was eight years old.

The weather was not very good that day.

The dark clouds outside the window filled the air with dull moisture, and some birds flew from the sky to the eaves, indicating that heavy rain was coming.

Father's decision to go on a long-distance trip was decided a month ago, but on the day of parting, his mood still inevitably fell to the bottom.

"Ah Wu sent a message saying that they have arrived in Yuncheng. Why don't you invite them to come to the house? Besides, Qiangqiang's talent..." The mother's words came from the room, and finally fell silent with the father's sigh.

"The time to go out this time is very tight, and Ah Wu and the others are also in a hurry. I will go to the gate of Yuncheng to meet them later." The father's words also came out, "Qiangqiang's talent is very high, but Weiwei Maybe not going down that path."

"That child, Weiwei, has always wanted to catch up with her sister... If she finds the difference between her talent and Qiangqiang..." the mother's words were worried. "What's more, I'm also worried that Qiangqiang's talent is too high..."

"Don't worry, wait for me to come back from the Lost Desert. After Ah Wu got Chiyan Liuhuo to undo the restraining spell for that child, the fate accumulated in our Bai family may turn around."

The father's words suddenly fell silent, and what landed in front of Bai Wei was a soundproof barrier at the peak of the prefecture level.

"What is Weiwei doing? It's not okay to eavesdrop at the door."

A gentle and brisk voice came from Bai Wei's ears, and then the familiar warm breath fell beside her.

"I didn't eavesdrop." Bai Wei raised her face, and what happened to meet her was her sister's palm, which turned the original touching of the head into a pinching of the face.

Bai Qiang smiled, "That's why I came to say goodbye to my father, right?"

Bai Wei nodded, "...Yes."

However, before saying goodbye to his father, he heard some words from his parents at the door.Although Bai Wei is not very old now, she is still hit by the fact that her talent is mediocre.

No one is born willing to be mediocre.

Especially her ideal is to become an excellent practitioner like her sister.

"You don't look very happy, did you encounter any problems?" Sensing that Bai Wei's mood was not right, Bai Qiang withdrew her hand and looked at her gently.

"I...I..." Bai Wei parted her lips. After hearing her parents' conversation, she suddenly felt powerless when facing her sister herself.But she was still a bit stubborn and whispered, "I want to become as powerful as you, sister..."

"Weiwei is already very powerful. When my sister was your age, her cultivation was not yet at the Xuan level." Bai Qiang bent down and straightened her slightly messy skirts. Her eyes were like morning stars. Reflecting Bai Wei's immature face, wishes and hopes are intertwined, "I'm not coaxing you, Wei Wei, at any time, don't give up the hope of moving yourself forward."

"And, one day, you will be even better than my sister."

"Okay, don't look depressed, go in with me to meet father and mother."

"..."

"..."

My sister's words full of hope and blessings still feel warm after recalling them.

But the sad thing is that since my father left home that day, he never came back.Another three months later, my father's natal card was broken.

The cheers of the past have turned into sorrow, but midsummer and July are like winter.

It's the source of nightmares.

Another four years have passed, and the older sister who was invited to participate in the selection of the Holy Maiden in the Church of Light unfortunately died in a secret place. It was supposed to be a cutscene between the nobles, and the older sister was just going to make up the number of people——

"Occasionally, I wonder if I was the one who used to belong to the Guangming Church, would it be different?"

【what's on your mind?At that time, you didn't even have the qualifications to be used as a tool by the nobles. 】Laughter sounded in Bai Wei's sea of ​​consciousness.

"Yes." Bai Wei spread her fingers again, took a deep breath, felt a strain in her lungs and heart, then reached out to touch her ID card, and held it tightly in her hand.

"You said you were me too."

【oh?Although I am, what do you want to do?What, are you going to admit my existence at this time? 】

"Stand up for me!"

Never give up the hope of moving forward at any time, and now, together with my sister's share, continue to move forward.If the talent is not enough, she will work harder, and if the effort is not enough, she will work hard.

Before her wish is fulfilled, she can't stay here silently.

【…】

The slender figure slowly stood up from the corner, and the pressure of the surrounding force field squeezed towards her again.It may only be for a while, or it may be a long time, and the passage of time cannot be distinguished.

Bai Wei stood up completely, and when she opened her eyes again, only her right eye turned scarlet.

Reason and insanity are fighting each other, but a delicate balance is maintained.She finally saw the deepest desire in her heart, and she was no longer afraid of the self named "monster".

**

The night covered the earth, and the wandering clouds covered the bright moon.In the endless night, only the silent twilight of the stars.

The main hall used to welcome the first ray of sunlight in the morning has been closed at this time, and the holy church will also make people feel gloomy when there is no light.

Among them, white candles are lit on both sides of the complex corridor of the building, and the night wind blows from time to time, which disturbs the slender candle wick, the flame trembles, and the light and shadow outline ghostly shadows on the wall of the corridor.

Two slender figures walked in the corridor, there was no one around, and only their footsteps could be heard in the silent air.

Suddenly, the night wind picked up a bit and blew out the candles.

"Tsk, it's really troublesome." Nian Ci's impatient voice sounded, and then she turned her head to look at the woman who was following behind her, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes, "The candle that illuminates the road was accidentally extinguished by the wind Now, I heard that you are half blind, so it shouldn't matter if you have light or not."

The woman standing not far behind Nian Ci had peaceful eyebrows, her temples had gray hair, and although her face was not old, there were deep tear grooves on her cheeks.Hearing Nian Ci's words, the woman raised her head, with inexplicable gentleness in her out-of-focus eyes, she didn't refute, but asked, "Well, how long will it take to arrive?"

"I've never seen someone who wants to seek death so much, and he'll be there soon." Nian Chi looked at the woman's expression, but didn't see the panic expression he expected from her face, and his tone became vicious, " Don't you still think that your daughter is still the same. You don't even know what she has become. "

"..." Because of Nian Ci's words, the smile on the woman's face disappeared, and her body trembled slightly.

Nian Chi was very satisfied with the woman's reaction as if she was terrified. Deep down in her heart, she hated that monster, but whenever she talked about that monster, the God Lord always praised it.

Under such strong jealousy, the expression on Nian Ci's face couldn't help but twisted a little, and she wanted to say something more, when a slightly anxious voice came from the end of the corridor, "Nian Ci, people brought Don't you miss the hour."

This is the sound of mourning.

Because Tayue, the maiden who Nianbei served, went to Shengyun College, in order not to attract attention, Nianbei also stayed to work with Nianci.

"..." With no more time to play tricks on the woman in front of him, Nian Ci restrained the malice in his eyes, and replied, "Here we come."

"Let's go, Mrs. Bai, you will see her soon." Nian Ci's tone was gloating.

"..." This time, the gentle woman did not answer Nian Ci's words.Anger and powerlessness were all held in the palm of her hand by the woman, making her heart throb.

She is very clear about what she is about to face. This is what she has been looking forward to for six full years. Every time she dreams back at midnight, the blood relatives who are soaked in sadness are separated, and they are about to meet at this time.

One of her worthless, unprotected, beloved children.

The muffled footsteps sounded like gravel counting down in an hourglass, approaching the end of the corridor step by step.

And their goal is a magnificent palace.Even though it was late at night, the hall was shrouded in the light of the night pearl, everything was as clear as day.

The divine master who used to sit in a high position disappeared at this time for some reason.Only the silently blooming white roses and the scarlet figure on the hotbed remained in the entire hall.

Nian Bei stood at the entrance of the main hall. When she saw the two of them approaching, she immediately said, "It's God's will, let her go by herself. After the full moon is over, we will open the door and go in to clean up."

She was different from Nian Chi, even though she had an arrogant expression, when she looked at the woman, there was a bit of pity.But such useless pity is also a kind of ridicule.

"Well, I don't want to go in and see that ugly thing either." Nian Ci breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Nian Bei's words, then turned to look at the person she had brought over, and urged, gloating, "Go in quickly, aren't you very Want to see her?"

"..." The woman called "Madam Bai" walked silently towards the hall.After she stepped into the hall with both feet, the carved door behind her closed spontaneously, and the luxurious and exquisite building looked like a cage at this moment.

There was no fear on Madam Bai's face, she walked towards the hotbed in the center of the hall.

As if responding to her arrival, the figure that had been sleeping peacefully on the hotbed slowly woke up.

Compared with a few months ago, the figure on the hotbed has grown new flesh on the skeleton. The scarlet color is the blood vessels on the flesh. At this time, because the consciousness of this body has awakened, the skin is slowly growing.

Like a newborn baby, with wrinkled red skin, ugly and dazed.Combined with the empty eyes on the body, it really looks like the "monster" in Nian Ci's mouth.

"Qiangqiang..." A soft call came from the edge of the hotbed, making the "it" that had just grown skin follow its intuition.

"I'm sorry, it's all mother's fault. You have suffered so much." The voice of repentance was full of deep love, and "it" stretched out its hand to the owner of the voice dully.

Different from the fingers of normal people, "it"'s hands are like the claws of some kind of beast, with sharp nails on the five fingers, which look extraordinarily ferocious and terrifying.

When seeing his palm, "it" suddenly felt a strange sense of rejection in his heart, and subconsciously wanted to stretch his hand back.

However, the person who spoke softly before stretched out his hand to hold the ferocious palm of "it".The sharp nails scratched the woman's fragile skin, and the crimson blood smudged from the place where their hands overlapped.

"It" opened its mouth, trying to say something, but it was in vain.It sounded like a roar, but no words could be heard.

"Don't be afraid, mother is here. Don't be afraid, my child." Her gentle voice gradually lowered, like the last flower that bloomed, and would inevitably wither and die.But her palms are still warm and strong, and where they overlap, "it" can clearly feel the heartbeat.

"It's not your fault, and it was never your sin."

Tears fell from her eyes and hit "it"'s animal claws, and the intense sadness made "it" restless. "It" no longer has the memory of being a human being, but this body, or the instinct of consciousness, is pursuing intuitive reactions.

"It" feels sad.

And Mrs. Bai hugged "it" into her arms, holding "it" like comforting a child, and continued to speak in a gradually lower voice, "Your name is Bai Qiang, and you have a younger sister. You must protect it." Good sister."

"It's never your fault, it's all my useless mother's fault. Please forgive me for using this way in exchange for your relief. Don't blame yourself, my child."

"For the past six years, I have been looking forward to meeting you again."
