False prophecies kill people [Western Fantasy]
Chapter 117
When this hand just touched Xie Yi's cheek, Xie Yi almost thought it was a hallucination.
It wasn't until that hand gently pinched Xie Yi's cheek that Xie Yi confirmed that it was true through perception.
At the same time, his hearing was restored.
He heard the sound of stones being moved.
Then with a pair of hands, Xie Yi was carried out from the pile of rocks.
He was in so much pain that he couldn't speak, and couldn't believe it was real, worried that it was an illusion he created for himself in despair, so he didn't speak.
Sexitus found the wound on Xie Yi's body, and he was very anxious, but it was still raining outside, this damn, cursed rain.He gathered together the wreckage of some wagons, and made fires with flint and steel where the rain had not yet reached.
He hugged Xie Yi to the fire, carefully untied the other man's robe, and treated Xie Yi's injury with the best things he could find at hand.
After inspection, Sexitus found that Xie Yi's calf and the bones in his right arm were broken. If he didn't take care of it properly, he might be disabled. He was terrified and extremely regretful. Xie Yi's side, otherwise Xie Yi would never suffer this crime.
This kind of strong self-blame is layered up like a wave, and it is getting higher and higher.
It's weird, because he and Xie Yi just got to know each other not long ago, and the two sides are not friendly, they are even hostile to each other in terms of positions.
But he just cares and loves, as if it's a matter of course.
"Does it hurt?"
Sexitus asked softly when fixing Xie Yi's wound with a wooden stick.
This is so real, Xie Yi suspects that this is not his own fantasy, but it is too unbelievable.
The pain made his mind numb, and it took him a while to figure out Sexitus' question. He thought for a while before replying weakly: "It hurts."
"sorry Sorry……"
The dim light of the fire reflected the shadows of the two of them on the wall of the cave, dark and distorted.Sexitus was a little out of control. He avoided Xie Yi's wounds, hugged Xie Yi tightly, and kept apologizing, as if it was all his fault that Xie Yi suffered.
Xie Yi listened to Sexitus' apology for a while, and felt even more strange, "What does this have to do with you...?"
"Why are you apologizing to me..."
Sexitus is simply a saint, Xie Yi thought hard.
He saved me and apologized.
I don't know what he's apologizing for.
Xie Yi was hugged by Sexitus, and Sexitus used too much strength, which actually made him a little uncomfortable, but he didn't speak, because being hugged like this really made people feel very safe.
He felt that Sexitus' palms were a little wet, maybe Sexitus had just been drenched in the rain, and he didn't have time to wipe his hands.He looked at Sexitus' hand, but it was not water.
Although the flames were faint, he could still clearly see the red color on Sexitus' hand.
It's red, not water...it's blood.
Xie Yi is not stupid, even though his thinking is a bit dull now, as long as he thinks that Sexitus rescued him just now by moving the stone away with his bare hands, he immediately understands everything.
"you……"
"What's wrong?" Just as Xie Yi spoke, Sexitus asked eagerly, "Does it hurt?"
He followed Xie Yi's line of sight, and saw his own hands, which were all wet with blood.
"Damn it." He pressed his palm on his clothes, and wiped off the blood casually, but the flesh on his palm was rolled up, and the blood was still flowing, so he couldn't wipe it off.
Sexitus was extremely annoyed, he cursed a few words in a low voice, and then said: "I'm sorry, the wetness makes you uncomfortable, right?"
In desperation, he could only tear off the strip of cloth and wrap it around his palm, "It won't happen now."
Xie Yi felt a sore and itchy throat.
why?He didn't understand that Xie Yi injured his hands and legs, but now he also felt waves of illusory but real pain in his palm.
it hurts.
He had no strength to speak, his eyelids felt heavy, and he was very tired, but he couldn't sleep because of the pain.
Sexitus saw Xie Yi's tiredness, even though he knew that Xie Yi's wound was not fatal, he still became nervous, "Don't sleep, don't sleep, Xie Yi, don't sleep..."
When Xie Yi heard what Sexitus said, he raised his eyebrows in surprise, and he asked intermittently, "How...how do you know...my name?"
He gasped for a while, "I remember I...didn't tell you..."
When Xie Yi didn't raise it, Sexitus didn't notice it, but now that this question was raised, Sexitus felt a burst of disbelief.
He paused.
Xie Yi did not tell him his name, he had only called Xie Yi "Your Excellency" before, even though he had discovered Xie Yi's name attached to the poem, he still didn't think Xie Yi's name was that.
Xie Yi should be called Xie Yi, which seems to be justified.
"...I don't know either." Sexitus murmured, "I just think that's what your name should be."
Xie Yi smiled: "Then your feeling is really amazing."
"I know you are having a hard time now." Sexitus looked at Xie Yi's half-closed eyes and pale face, "Don't bear it, or you will hurt yourself. If you don't want to cry out in pain, just bite me. hand, okay?"
Sexitus lifted his sleeves. The sleeves were already a bit dirty, but the flesh under the sleeves was clean. He stretched his arms to Xie Yi's lips, "Come on."
Xie Yi didn't want to, he turned his head away, "I can bear it... but I don't feel well, tell me something... divert my attention... okay?"
Sexitus couldn't force Xie Yi to bite his arm, so he could only obey. He quickly thought about what to say.
He has to say something that can arouse Xie Yi's interest, so as to divert his attention, otherwise, uninteresting things will only make Xie Yi feel bored, so he will unconsciously turn his attention back to the pain.
What is Xie Yi interested in?
Sexitus thought of Xie Yi's poem draft, his heart moved, he sorted out his thoughts, and began to explain how to arrange the rhyme, how to choose the meter...and so on.
He originally thought that Xie Yi was interested in composing poems, so he should also be very interested in these rules.However, in fact, Xie Yi's interest in writing poetry is not the same as that of ordinary people. He is only interested in the concept of "writing poetry", and he doesn't care about the rules that poetry should follow.
What Sexitus said seemed very boring to him, but he listened anyway.
Under the firelight, Sexitus's face looked strangely handsome.The dim light of the fire has a considerable modification effect on the face of a person. Even an ordinary-looking person will add a bit of temperament, not to mention Sexitus' face is good. Before his mother passed away, he received a systematic royal education. , with a straight back and a natural elegance in every gesture.
His voice is deep and magnetic, and it is likely that the Creator in religious stories created everything in the world with this voice.His lips are thin, with sharp corners, but they are beautiful. When the lips open and close, the neat and white teeth are exposed, like a flash of arc light.
Sexitus spoke neither fast nor slow, and tried his best to be a good teacher, but Xie Yi was not a good student, he only cared about looking at the poetry teacher's face.
There is a vocabulary called "beautiful beauty", but Xie Yi felt that he could now create a new word called "beautiful beauty and medicine". Looking at Sexitus like this and listening to him speak, he suddenly felt The pain eased a lot.
The rain outside the cave was still falling, and the sound of the rain was pattering, but it gradually became smaller, and it was expected to stop soon.
Listening to Sexitus' voice, Xie Yi felt drowsiness overwhelmed the pain, he gently closed his eyes and fell asleep.
When I woke up the next morning, the rain outside was much lighter. Although it was still falling in pieces, it obviously couldn't last long.
Xie Yi found that he was placed on a simple bed, which was made by Sexitus with salvaged items from the wreckage of the carriage. The soft mattress was cushioned under his body, and it felt really good.The wounds on his arms and lower legs were also better treated, covered with a green paste, presumably herbs or something.
He is not in so much pain.
Xie Yi didn't need to raise his eyes to look for Sexitus, because Sexitus was sitting next to him, and he was spotted by Sexitus as soon as he opened his eyes.
Sexitus stayed up all night, until he saw Xie Yi opened his eyes, he was really relieved.
God knows how afraid he is that Xie Yi won't wake up.
"I'm so glad to see you awake."
Sexitus said.
The happiness and joy in his eyes are so real, it doesn't seem fake at all, and it's unnecessary.
If he wanted to harm Xie Yi, he would not have rescued Xie Yi from the rubble yesterday.
Xie Yi felt at a loss for Sexitus's undisguised emotions. He was a little uncomfortable and didn't know how to answer. He could socialize, but he almost never communicated emotionally with others, but he didn't want to disappoint Sexitus Si's kindness, after thinking for a long time, finally only replied dryly: "... I am also very happy, good morning."
"Good morning."
Sexitus smiled. After a night of hustle and bustle, the well-dressed former king's clothes were messy, with a lot of dirt added to them, and his blond hair was also messed up, looking quite embarrassed.
However, Xie Yi still thought that the other party was amazingly good-looking, and even that embarrassment seemed to have a special charm in it.
Sexitus wiped Xie Yi's hands and face with clean water, and Xie Yi persisted in rinsing his mouth. After the simple wash, he felt much better.
There was a lot of dust in his shoulder-length hair, and his clothes were torn, not to mention the green paste on his hands and feet. Sexitus fixed his injured arm and calf with wooden sticks, which made his entire body People look embarrassed and pitiful.
Some of his witchcraft had recovered, but it would take a few days for it to fully recover.
But what if everything is restored?Could he heal himself in the blink of an eye?
Now that he survived, Xie Yi had to think about the next issue of survival.
The carriage was ruined, and Sexitus, who had been taking care of him last night, apparently ignored the six horses, who were still there or not.He himself was injured again, and it was still inconvenient to move.
All this points to an obvious reality:
—If he wants to live, it is all up to Sexitus to take care of him.
If Sexitus didn't want to pay attention to him, Xie Yi's fate was very likely to be starved to death.
His cognition is very clear, but this cognition makes him feel very uncomfortable, because he has never been in the habit of relying on others, let alone tie his own destiny to other people's thoughts.
"Come to have some breakfast, do you have an appetite?"
Sexitus brought a piece of bread, which was the only food left, and he helped Xie Yi to sit up, "Even if you don't have an appetite, you still have to eat some."
Xie Yi looked at him and asked, "I think there isn't much food?"
Sexitus replied, "Well, but that's all right, I'll go out and you'll see how good my hunting skills are this afternoon."
Xie Yi heard the clue from Sexitus' words: "Is this the last food?"
"...Yes." Sexitus didn't want to discuss this issue, he urged: "Eat quickly."
"You didn't eat anything last night, if you don't eat today, how will you get better?"
"But..." Xie Yi pointed out: "I'm not the only one who didn't eat, didn't you also eat?"
"But you are a patient." Sexitus was almost coaxing: "Eat a little, and rest well after eating. I can just worry about the amount of food."
"You can eat." Although very hungry, Xie Yi still planned to maximize his efficiency: "You are going to hunt, and you should replenish your energy. I'm lying down anyway, so it doesn't matter if I'm hungry."
Seeing that it didn't make sense, Sexitus simply wanted to feed it directly, but Xie Yi turned his head away.
He decided to make it clear: "Look, the carriage is gone, I don't know if the horse is still there, and I can't move. I'm like a useless person. If I want to live, I can only rely on your kindness. Are you willing to go hunting? , This is very good, I want you to maintain sufficient physical strength, so that you will be more likely to catch the prey, and I will be more likely to survive, I am all for myself, do you understand?"
Sexitus didn't expect Xie Yi to say everything so clearly, he looked at Xie Yi's face and expression, and suddenly smiled: "You are right, but I take care of you completely voluntarily, because I Willing to do this, I just want you to get well soon, I have been hungry for a long time, this is not a bad time, and I am not bragging about my talents, even if I starve for two days and two nights, I You can also hunt prey smoothly, so you don’t have to worry.”
After he finished speaking, he passed the bread in his hand forward, meaning Xie Yi still wanted to eat it.
Xie Yi looked at him, "Why are you being so nice to me?"
"Because..." Sexitus smiled slightly, his smile flashed from his sky-blue pupils, and the line of his lips curved into a rather charming arc, "I admire you."
Xie Yi automatically understood "admiration" as "worship". It is normal for ordinary people to worship wizards, but he doesn't think he has anything to worship. A witchcraft, far worse than a real wizard.
What's more, in the current situation, he worships Sexitus almost.
In the end, he and Sexitus shared the last piece of precious bread.
The taste of this piece of bread is not good, it has been placed for several days, it is no longer fresh, and because of the humid weather, the taste has become even weirder, but Xie Yi is not in the mood to be picky, he took the half of the bread one bite at a time. After eating the piece of bread, the hungry stomach recovered a little, and it stopped screaming.
He leaned back on the crude bed made by Sexitus, watching Sexitus methodically sorting out all the things that could be salvaged from the wreckage of the carriage, grouped them into categories, and piled them up on the ground.
Sexitus was very agile when he worked, and his hands and feet were not unfamiliar at all. It was hard to imagine that this man who was willing to bend down to sort things among the wreckage was the king of a country a few days ago.
Sexitus found a tattered book and handed it to Xie Yi as a material to relieve boredom.
It happened to be a collection of love poems that Xie Yi had no interest in.
He didn't want to look at it, and still kept his eyes on Sexitus.
Sexitus is using materials to make crude weapons and traps, most likely for hunting.
Although it was said to be going in the afternoon, Sexitus left here with the weapon he made when the rain was fading in the morning. Before leaving, he was very nervous about Xie Yi's safety, lest he leave, the cave A few wolves came here and took Xie Yi away.
"I can protect myself." Xie Yi dispelled Sexitus' doubts, "My witch power is still there, enough to protect myself."
Xie Yi couldn't move, so he had to set up a protective magic circle with the help of Sexitus, "As long as my witch power is not exhausted, this magic circle can protect me from harm." Xie Yi said.
It felt amazing when he said those words.
He stood against Sexitus, and now Sexitus cared so much about him.
This is simply incredible.
Because of emotion and reason, Sexitus can completely ignore him, even if he ignores Xie Yi by throwing him into the pile of stones, no one can blame him.
Although still a little uneasy, Sexitus left.
Noon was coming, and he didn't want Xie Yi to be hungry, so he was determined to get the prey before noon.
Xie Yi looked at the back of Sexitus riding away, and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind
——Would Sexitus just leave without returning, throw him in this cave and let him fend for himself?
It's not impossible.
With the emergence of this idea, a thought was also born in Xie Yi's mind:
Instead of dying of hunger slowly and painfully, it is better to kill yourself while still having some strength, so that at least you don't have to endure despair and pain.
His witch power has recovered a little, and he can take advantage of it now...Suddenly, Xie Yi suddenly woke up from this absurd thought.
This is simply inexplicable, how could he have such an idea?
Even if Sexitus left him here and never returned, Xie Yi would never give up his own life. His desire to live was extremely strong, and he would rather starve to death in despair than end himself. s life.
After all, until the last moment, who knows if there will be a turning point?
What's more, Xie Yi didn't think that Sexitus would abandon him, this belief was extremely firm, even though Xie Yi didn't know what was supporting it.
After Sexitus left, Xie Yi stayed alone in the cave, feeling bored, he could only pick up the book of love poems to pass the time.
His eyes focused on the first line of verse, and he scanned down word by word.
The story is old-fashioned and nothing new. The hero fell in love with the heroine at first sight, but the heroine was extremely cold towards the infatuated man and said contemptuously: "If you love me enough to give your life for me, then you can prove it to me."
The hero then proves his love for the heroine with his own death.
It's good enough that a person falls in love with someone so much because of one glimpse that he's willing to die for that person, but that's not the best part.
The most wonderful thing is that when the heroine saw the cold body of the hero, she, who was always ruthless, immediately turned into a passionate seed, and suddenly found that she fell in love with the hero, but the dead cannot be resurrected, and she was extremely sad Grief, also ended his own life.
One love, two corpses, too ridiculous.
Xie Yi casually put the collection of poems aside, at this moment, he felt his magic circle was triggered.
Sexitus' worries came true, a group of wild wolves gathered at the entrance of the cave, they kept attacking the defensive circle, trying to rush into the cave to feed Xie Yi's hungry stomach.
However this is very odd.
Three of their six horses were missing and two died. In order to prevent wild animals, Sexitus set up a trap near the two dead horses. in the trap.
The remaining one was ridden away by Sexitus.
From Xie Yi's perspective, it can be clearly seen that these wolves didn't even look at the corpses of the two horses, they just wanted to rush into the cave wholeheartedly.
This was so weird that Xie Yi could only associate it with witchcraft, but he didn't offend any wizards, even... Xie Yi suddenly discovered that he couldn't remember the faces of any wizards or wizard apprentices.His clearest memory started from receiving the mission. Everything before that seemed to be surrounded by a thick fog, making it impossible to see clearly, only vague concepts.
This made him extremely puzzled, but the most urgent task was to deal with the wild wolf in front of him.
They kept attacking the defensive circle, and the defensive circle gradually became crumbling under their constant impact. Xie Yi kept repairing the magic circle with his own witch power. He also tried to kill these wild wolves, but regardless of him No matter how many wolves are killed, there will always be new additions, as if it is endless. Soon, Xie Yi realized that it is better to save some energy to support the defensive circle than to kill wolves with all his strength.
This group of wolves couldn't attack for a long time.But they did not give up like normal wolves, but became even crazier.
Their eyes glowed with a faint green light, and their saliva dripped down the tip of their teeth, full of ferocity and animalism, even though they were exhausted, they still refused to give up.
—Someone wanted him to die here.
Looking at these wild wolves, Xie Yi realized this very clearly.
However, who actually wanted to put him to death?He has absolutely no clue.
With the passage of time, Xie Yi's witch power is gradually stretched. He was just an apprentice wizard with little magic power. Now that he is injured, it is even more difficult to support. In ten minutes, the defensive magic circle will completely fail .
Xie Yi could almost foresee his end.
He would die under the fangs and claws of these wolves, a heap of lifeless flesh for their stomachs to fill.
It is impossible to say that there is no despair, but he has no way to stop that future.
After ten minutes, he will die, and he will die miserably.
Finally, that moment has come.
Because the defensive magic circle could not be supplemented by witch power, it completely dissipated under the attack of the wild wolf. It turned into a burst of light and floated into the air.
A deep roar came from the throats of the wolves, and they couldn't wait to rush into the cave, towards the human who had no resistance at all.
Its mouth is filled with a pleasurable resentment, and only the flesh and life of the human being in front of it can fill its rumbling stomach.
Bending down, jumping up, and opening its mouth, the wolf that charged in first did so without hesitation.
In the next second, it could bite the throat of the human in front of it.
Xie Yi closed his eyes, he was afraid of death, but there was nothing he could do.
But what he waited for was not pain, but a burst of weight from the sky. The warm plush body fell heavily on his body, which happened to be pressed on his injured right arm, and the pain became severe again.Xie Yi opened his eyes, and an arrow pierced through the wolf's head, passing through with incomparable precision, killing him with one blow.
The figure of Sexitus came into his eyes.
He was slashing at a wolf with a sword, and with great force, he cut off the wolf's head directly, and the blood splashed out and splashed on Sexitus' face.
Sexitus's current expression is not elegant either, his face is tense, his expression is not good, and with the splashed red blood, he looks extremely hideous.
It's still pretty though.
Xie Yi thought.
At his most dangerous moment, when he had lost all hope and was about to face death, Sexitus miraculously rushed back to save him.
The pain in the arm was nothing.
He felt safe, alive, and secretly happy.
It wasn't until that hand gently pinched Xie Yi's cheek that Xie Yi confirmed that it was true through perception.
At the same time, his hearing was restored.
He heard the sound of stones being moved.
Then with a pair of hands, Xie Yi was carried out from the pile of rocks.
He was in so much pain that he couldn't speak, and couldn't believe it was real, worried that it was an illusion he created for himself in despair, so he didn't speak.
Sexitus found the wound on Xie Yi's body, and he was very anxious, but it was still raining outside, this damn, cursed rain.He gathered together the wreckage of some wagons, and made fires with flint and steel where the rain had not yet reached.
He hugged Xie Yi to the fire, carefully untied the other man's robe, and treated Xie Yi's injury with the best things he could find at hand.
After inspection, Sexitus found that Xie Yi's calf and the bones in his right arm were broken. If he didn't take care of it properly, he might be disabled. He was terrified and extremely regretful. Xie Yi's side, otherwise Xie Yi would never suffer this crime.
This kind of strong self-blame is layered up like a wave, and it is getting higher and higher.
It's weird, because he and Xie Yi just got to know each other not long ago, and the two sides are not friendly, they are even hostile to each other in terms of positions.
But he just cares and loves, as if it's a matter of course.
"Does it hurt?"
Sexitus asked softly when fixing Xie Yi's wound with a wooden stick.
This is so real, Xie Yi suspects that this is not his own fantasy, but it is too unbelievable.
The pain made his mind numb, and it took him a while to figure out Sexitus' question. He thought for a while before replying weakly: "It hurts."
"sorry Sorry……"
The dim light of the fire reflected the shadows of the two of them on the wall of the cave, dark and distorted.Sexitus was a little out of control. He avoided Xie Yi's wounds, hugged Xie Yi tightly, and kept apologizing, as if it was all his fault that Xie Yi suffered.
Xie Yi listened to Sexitus' apology for a while, and felt even more strange, "What does this have to do with you...?"
"Why are you apologizing to me..."
Sexitus is simply a saint, Xie Yi thought hard.
He saved me and apologized.
I don't know what he's apologizing for.
Xie Yi was hugged by Sexitus, and Sexitus used too much strength, which actually made him a little uncomfortable, but he didn't speak, because being hugged like this really made people feel very safe.
He felt that Sexitus' palms were a little wet, maybe Sexitus had just been drenched in the rain, and he didn't have time to wipe his hands.He looked at Sexitus' hand, but it was not water.
Although the flames were faint, he could still clearly see the red color on Sexitus' hand.

Xie Yi smiled: "Then your feeling is really amazing."
"I know you are having a hard time now." Sexitus looked at Xie Yi's half-closed eyes and pale face, "Don't bear it, or you will hurt yourself. If you don't want to cry out in pain, just bite me. hand, okay?"
Sexitus lifted his sleeves. The sleeves were already a bit dirty, but the flesh under the sleeves was clean. He stretched his arms to Xie Yi's lips, "Come on."

The carriage was ruined, and Sexitus, who had been taking care of him last night, apparently ignored the six horses, who were still there or not.He himself was injured again, and it was still inconvenient to move.
All this points to an obvious reality:
—If he wants to live, it is all up to Sexitus to take care of him.
If Sexitus didn't want to pay attention to him, Xie Yi's fate was very likely to be starved to death.
His cognition is very clear, but this cognition makes him feel very uncomfortable, because he has never been in the habit of relying on others, let alone tie his own destiny to other people's thoughts.
"Come to have some breakfast, do you have an appetite?"
Sexitus brought a piece of bread, which was the only food left, and he helped Xie Yi to sit up, "Even if you don't have an appetite, you still have to eat some."
Xie Yi looked at him and asked, "I think there isn't much food?"
Sexitus replied, "Well, but that's all right, I'll go out and you'll see how good my hunting skills are this afternoon."
Xie Yi heard the clue from Sexitus' words: "Is this the last food?"
"...Yes." Sexitus didn't want to discuss this issue, he urged: "Eat quickly."
"You didn't eat anything last night, if you don't eat today, how will you get better?"
"But..." Xie Yi pointed out: "I'm not the only one who didn't eat, didn't you also eat?"
"But you are a patient." Sexitus was almost coaxing: "Eat a little, and rest well after eating. I can just worry about the amount of food."
"You can eat." Although very hungry, Xie Yi still planned to maximize his efficiency: "You are going to hunt, and you should replenish your energy. I'm lying down anyway, so it doesn't matter if I'm hungry."
Seeing that it didn't make sense, Sexitus simply wanted to feed it directly, but Xie Yi turned his head away.
He decided to make it clear: "Look, the carriage is gone, I don't know if the horse is still there, and I can't move. I'm like a useless person. If I want to live, I can only rely on your kindness. Are you willing to go hunting? , This is very good, I want you to maintain sufficient physical strength, so that you will be more likely to catch the prey, and I will be more likely to survive, I am all for myself, do you understand?"
Sexitus didn't expect Xie Yi to say everything so clearly, he looked at Xie Yi's face and expression, and suddenly smiled: "You are right, but I take care of you completely voluntarily, because I Willing to do this, I just want you to get well soon, I have been hungry for a long time, this is not a bad time, and I am not bragging about my talents, even if I starve for two days and two nights, I You can also hunt prey smoothly, so you don’t have to worry.”
After he finished speaking, he passed the bread in his hand forward, meaning Xie Yi still wanted to eat it.
Xie Yi looked at him, "Why are you being so nice to me?"
"Because..." Sexitus smiled slightly, his smile flashed from his sky-blue pupils, and the line of his lips curved into a rather charming arc, "I admire you."
Xie Yi automatically understood "admiration" as "worship". It is normal for ordinary people to worship wizards, but he doesn't think he has anything to worship. A witchcraft, far worse than a real wizard.
What's more, in the current situation, he worships Sexitus almost.
In the end, he and Sexitus shared the last piece of precious bread.
The taste of this piece of bread is not good, it has been placed for several days, it is no longer fresh, and because of the humid weather, the taste has become even weirder, but Xie Yi is not in the mood to be picky, he took the half of the bread one bite at a time. After eating the piece of bread, the hungry stomach recovered a little, and it stopped screaming.
He leaned back on the crude bed made by Sexitus, watching Sexitus methodically sorting out all the things that could be salvaged from the wreckage of the carriage, grouped them into categories, and piled them up on the ground.
Sexitus was very agile when he worked, and his hands and feet were not unfamiliar at all. It was hard to imagine that this man who was willing to bend down to sort things among the wreckage was the king of a country a few days ago.
Sexitus found a tattered book and handed it to Xie Yi as a material to relieve boredom.
It happened to be a collection of love poems that Xie Yi had no interest in.
He didn't want to look at it, and still kept his eyes on Sexitus.
Sexitus is using materials to make crude weapons and traps, most likely for hunting.
Although it was said to be going in the afternoon, Sexitus left here with the weapon he made when the rain was fading in the morning. Before leaving, he was very nervous about Xie Yi's safety, lest he leave, the cave A few wolves came here and took Xie Yi away.
"I can protect myself." Xie Yi dispelled Sexitus' doubts, "My witch power is still there, enough to protect myself."
Xie Yi couldn't move, so he had to set up a protective magic circle with the help of Sexitus, "As long as my witch power is not exhausted, this magic circle can protect me from harm." Xie Yi said.
It felt amazing when he said those words.
He stood against Sexitus, and now Sexitus cared so much about him.
This is simply incredible.
Because of emotion and reason, Sexitus can completely ignore him, even if he ignores Xie Yi by throwing him into the pile of stones, no one can blame him.
Although still a little uneasy, Sexitus left.
Noon was coming, and he didn't want Xie Yi to be hungry, so he was determined to get the prey before noon.
Xie Yi looked at the back of Sexitus riding away, and a thought suddenly appeared in his mind
——Would Sexitus just leave without returning, throw him in this cave and let him fend for himself?
It's not impossible.
With the emergence of this idea, a thought was also born in Xie Yi's mind:
Instead of dying of hunger slowly and painfully, it is better to kill yourself while still having some strength, so that at least you don't have to endure despair and pain.
His witch power has recovered a little, and he can take advantage of it now...Suddenly, Xie Yi suddenly woke up from this absurd thought.
This is simply inexplicable, how could he have such an idea?
Even if Sexitus left him here and never returned, Xie Yi would never give up his own life. His desire to live was extremely strong, and he would rather starve to death in despair than end himself. s life.
After all, until the last moment, who knows if there will be a turning point?
What's more, Xie Yi didn't think that Sexitus would abandon him, this belief was extremely firm, even though Xie Yi didn't know what was supporting it.
After Sexitus left, Xie Yi stayed alone in the cave, feeling bored, he could only pick up the book of love poems to pass the time.
His eyes focused on the first line of verse, and he scanned down word by word.
The story is old-fashioned and nothing new. The hero fell in love with the heroine at first sight, but the heroine was extremely cold towards the infatuated man and said contemptuously: "If you love me enough to give your life for me, then you can prove it to me."
The hero then proves his love for the heroine with his own death.
It's good enough that a person falls in love with someone so much because of one glimpse that he's willing to die for that person, but that's not the best part.
The most wonderful thing is that when the heroine saw the cold body of the hero, she, who was always ruthless, immediately turned into a passionate seed, and suddenly found that she fell in love with the hero, but the dead cannot be resurrected, and she was extremely sad Grief, also ended his own life.
One love, two corpses, too ridiculous.
Xie Yi casually put the collection of poems aside, at this moment, he felt his magic circle was triggered.
Sexitus' worries came true, a group of wild wolves gathered at the entrance of the cave, they kept attacking the defensive circle, trying to rush into the cave to feed Xie Yi's hungry stomach.
However this is very odd.
Three of their six horses were missing and two died. In order to prevent wild animals, Sexitus set up a trap near the two dead horses. in the trap.
The remaining one was ridden away by Sexitus.
From Xie Yi's perspective, it can be clearly seen that these wolves didn't even look at the corpses of the two horses, they just wanted to rush into the cave wholeheartedly.
This was so weird that Xie Yi could only associate it with witchcraft, but he didn't offend any wizards, even... Xie Yi suddenly discovered that he couldn't remember the faces of any wizards or wizard apprentices.His clearest memory started from receiving the mission. Everything before that seemed to be surrounded by a thick fog, making it impossible to see clearly, only vague concepts.
This made him extremely puzzled, but the most urgent task was to deal with the wild wolf in front of him.
They kept attacking the defensive circle, and the defensive circle gradually became crumbling under their constant impact. Xie Yi kept repairing the magic circle with his own witch power. He also tried to kill these wild wolves, but regardless of him No matter how many wolves are killed, there will always be new additions, as if it is endless. Soon, Xie Yi realized that it is better to save some energy to support the defensive circle than to kill wolves with all his strength.
This group of wolves couldn't attack for a long time.But they did not give up like normal wolves, but became even crazier.
Their eyes glowed with a faint green light, and their saliva dripped down the tip of their teeth, full of ferocity and animalism, even though they were exhausted, they still refused to give up.
—Someone wanted him to die here.
Looking at these wild wolves, Xie Yi realized this very clearly.
However, who actually wanted to put him to death?He has absolutely no clue.
With the passage of time, Xie Yi's witch power is gradually stretched. He was just an apprentice wizard with little magic power. Now that he is injured, it is even more difficult to support. In ten minutes, the defensive magic circle will completely fail .
Xie Yi could almost foresee his end.
He would die under the fangs and claws of these wolves, a heap of lifeless flesh for their stomachs to fill.
It is impossible to say that there is no despair, but he has no way to stop that future.
After ten minutes, he will die, and he will die miserably.
Finally, that moment has come.
Because the defensive magic circle could not be supplemented by witch power, it completely dissipated under the attack of the wild wolf. It turned into a burst of light and floated into the air.
A deep roar came from the throats of the wolves, and they couldn't wait to rush into the cave, towards the human who had no resistance at all.
Its mouth is filled with a pleasurable resentment, and only the flesh and life of the human being in front of it can fill its rumbling stomach.
Bending down, jumping up, and opening its mouth, the wolf that charged in first did so without hesitation.
In the next second, it could bite the throat of the human in front of it.
Xie Yi closed his eyes, he was afraid of death, but there was nothing he could do.
But what he waited for was not pain, but a burst of weight from the sky. The warm plush body fell heavily on his body, which happened to be pressed on his injured right arm, and the pain became severe again.Xie Yi opened his eyes, and an arrow pierced through the wolf's head, passing through with incomparable precision, killing him with one blow.
The figure of Sexitus came into his eyes.
He was slashing at a wolf with a sword, and with great force, he cut off the wolf's head directly, and the blood splashed out and splashed on Sexitus' face.
Sexitus's current expression is not elegant either, his face is tense, his expression is not good, and with the splashed red blood, he looks extremely hideous.
It's still pretty though.
Xie Yi thought.
At his most dangerous moment, when he had lost all hope and was about to face death, Sexitus miraculously rushed back to save him.
The pain in the arm was nothing.
He felt safe, alive, and secretly happy.
