[Infinite Stream] Destiny Rubik's Cube

Zhou Qi stepped back, thought for a while, and smiled: "That's too much. I'm curious about your whole body, from hair to toes."

Xu Chi just looked at him like this, it was hard to tell what expression he had.

But Zhou Qi can see a kind of cold scrutiny from it.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm curious about you, it's normal. Everyone is curious about you because you are mysterious. Mysterious and closed." Zhou Qi put his hands close to the fire and rubbed them to keep warm.

Xu Chi tilted his head slightly, and Zhou Qi knew that this was his body language expressing doubts.

"Hey, let me give you the simplest example." Zhou Qi elaborated, "Didn't I just tell you about my origin and my parents? These are topics that are often mentioned in the conversations of acquaintances, but the same If the topic was thrown at you, how would you answer it?"

The corners of Xu Chi's lips were slowly straightened.

As if to prove his argument, Zhou Qi deliberately asked: "Answer me, how did you grow up?"

"..." Xu Chi shrank his shoulders and rested his chin on the clenched fist on his knee. He said flatly, "It's just growing up."

Obvious evasive answer.

Zhou Qi continued to ask: "Just? Can't you be more specific?"

"That's it, time is pushing me away." Xu Chi's eyes were empty, "Day after day, year after year."

silence.

An extended version of silence.

Xu Chi rolled his eyes: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my answer?"

Zhou Qi knew the helpless expression on his face: "Your answer vividly embodies the two words I just said, closed! In this world, people have the desire to confide as long as they have thoughts, but you don't. No matter what topic, if it comes to you, it will end directly. You don’t want to talk about it at all, don’t talk about it, erect a wall, and no one will touch it. Besides being mysterious, do you know what else you give me? "

"What do you feel?"

"Either, you subconsciously avoid all questions that may reveal personal information. Or, you are a person who has no past and no life at all." Zhou Qi sighed, "If it is the former, then you must have received rigorous training before, and you have It is a habit to hide everything in front of people. This is also understandable, it may be a professional requirement, or it is simply a high level of alertness. But if it is the latter..." He paused, raised his finger, then dropped it back, muttering, " Forget it, I hope it's the former."

Compared with having no past worth telling about and life worth sharing, he still hopes that Xu Chi is wary of him, so he refuses to say more.But at the same time, he was a little bit disappointed because Xu Chi was wary of him.He always had the illusion that they were already very close.

The silence continued to ferment, but it was not difficult.

Xu Chi looked at the warm flames gently burning Zhou Qi's fingertips. After a while, he said in a muffled voice, "Next time, next time you ask me again, I'll think about it."

"Okay. I'll write it down." Zhou Qi didn't want to discuss this anymore. He clapped his hands, got up, and looked up at the position of the moon in the sky. Sleep."

Xu Chi lifted a rock to put out the fire, and silently reloaded the shotgun.Now the two of them only have one gun, and Zhou Qi's is left to the old Hughes. After all, there are only two guns in the village, and it is impossible to take them away, otherwise there will be some danger in the rear, and even the guns will be slightly lethal There are no larger weapons, and the blood is too brittle.

It took about half an hour to cross the entire Grand Canyon of the Middle Realm. Near the upturned surface, there was a faint smell of fishy sweetness and corruption in the air, with a sense of tide.The wind from the gorge blows in, and this smell becomes clear and audible.

"This smell gives me a bad feeling." Zhou Qi rubbed his fingers left and right under his nose, squinted his eyes and thought for a while, "It's like sprinkling a handful of sugar on a corpse that has been soaked in water for a long time. "

Xu Chi was disgusted by his vivid description, and rubbed his cold and throbbing stomach.

The moonlight elongated the shadows of the two and overlapped them.

It was the first time in Xu Chiping's life that he thought about his previous life, and he came to the conclusion that he was indeed a person with no life, all he had was fighting and the battlefield.

"Here we are. Hey, what do you want?"

He was in a daze, suddenly, with an enlarged face under his eyelids, and there was undisguised concern in his long and narrow eyes.

Xu Chi stretched out a finger, put it against the forehead of that handsome face, and pushed it away mercilessly: "I was thinking, I have a chance to meet your alcoholic father."

"Ah?" Zhou Qi suddenly smiled treacherously, "Meet the parents? This progress... hiss, is it a bit faster?"

Xu Chi put his hands behind his back and walked away from him: "Let me see, the lower beam is crooked like this, and the upper beam is not right..."

Zhou Qi: "..."

The moonlight slanted through the shadow at the end of the canyon, and the two stopped one after another, leaning their backs against the cliff, and cautiously looked out from the mouth of the canyon.

Although they had made sufficient psychological preparations, they were still stunned by the sight in front of them.

It's a whole different world than sloped surfaces.There are tall and lush trees on the upturned side, there are colorful flower clusters, there is a sparkling lake, and even the wind blowing on the face has the temperature of spring, as soft as catkins.

Zhou Qi was stunned, and squeezed out three words for a long time: "Fuck, heaven."

Xu Chi didn't speak. He was always a man of action. He took off his fox fur coat and stepped into "Heaven".

He didn't want to endure the cold for a second.

"Hey, wait, are you so tempted?" Zhou Qi lowered his voice and yelled at his back, "Damn it, the upturned face is the moth's territory, and there are countless enemies lurking here, how can you be so swaggering?" ..."

The boss turned a deaf ear, step by step, walked out of the reckless pace with steady steps.

Zhou Qi was silent for a while, thinking that he is awesome or charming, losing people can't lose a battle, so he simply took off his clothes and followed.

Just dragged the world away for a long time, nothing happened.

Zhou Qi couldn't help becoming suspicious. Is this a trap for the moths to invite you into the urn?After walking for a while, he fell into a state of madness, where are the moths?Give me a moth!I want moths!Damn, I can't see the moths, so panic!

Going forward, he was attracted by those strange plants again: My God, is this blue translucent umbrella a mushroom?There are mushrooms as tall as trees?Can I eat it?It won't be poisonous, right?Ah, the tree, the bark is so colorful, so bright, so eye-catching... Am I dreaming?

"Did you hear?" At this moment, Xu Chi spoke abruptly, pulling back Zhou Qi's consciousness of wandering into outer space.

"What did you hear?" Zhou Qi tugged at his ears, "I didn't hear anything."

"Yes, because there is no sound." Xu Chi stopped in front of a big flower that looked like a baby's palm, "Insects chirped, birds chirped, not even mosquitoes and flies, there seemed to be no living things here."

"Aren't moths alive?" Zhou Qi felt goosebumps appear on his arms.

"Have you ever seen an alien moth since you came in?" Xu Chi asked.

Zhou Qi shook his head: "I'm also wondering, I haven't seen one for a long time, where are they hiding?"

It was so weird, they were all delivered to the door, but the enemy ignored them.It's kind of hurt my self-esteem.

"There's still that smell." Xu Chi frowned, "All the way along, none of the plants along the road exudes that peculiar smell."

"Maybe I haven't found it yet." Zhou Qi's whole body was immersed in that peculiar smell, and his sense of smell was almost lost. "Let's look further."

"Let's go here first today." Xu Chi, a reckless father, held him back now, "I think something is wrong, so go back first..."

Before he finished speaking, he closed his mouth, and his whole body trembled inexplicably.

Zhou Qi frowned and looked at him: "Speak well, what are you talking about?"

Xu Chi: "..."

Wait, Xu Chi didn't move.

Immediately, Zhou Qi realized that he was also shaking, and he couldn't even stand firmly. He lowered his head and found that it wasn't people who were shaking, but the whole ground!

He had a blank face: "What's the situation? An earthquake?"

"It's not an earthquake." Xu Chi's face was ugly, "It's something under his feet."

"Swipe--"

Just like a preview before the show, as soon as he finished speaking, two purple and black wattle branches as thick as the waist of an adult man broke out from the ground, and the smelly mud clods sprinkled their heads and faces. , piercing the air towards the two uninvited guests, like two terrifying giant pythons with ferocious faces.

Zhou Qi's reaction was quite fast. He put his arm around Xu Chi's waist with one hand, and grabbed the vine hanging in front of him with the other hand.

After landing, they hadn't stabilized yet, and countless thorns followed closely. The two looked at each other, and ran wildly at the same time.
