Tomb Raiders Fake BG "Soul of the Sword"

The author has something to say: I suddenly feel that this chapter is written in a stupid way... Please read it as it is [wiping sweat]

It's funny to think about it now.When she found Wu Xie and Zhang Qiling who was dragged out by him in the cave, her first reaction was to rush to the man and put her ear to his left chest to check if his heartbeat was still beating.

At that time, I thought it was ridiculous when I thought about it.

Obviously she is still here.

However, if you don't feel that there is still a small amount of breath coming out of his nose.She really thought that this man was dead.

The ticking second hand of the clock on the wall added a bit of depression to the dark and narrow corridor.

Ajiu leaned lazily against the wall as if she had let go of all her strength.Outside the door of the emergency room opposite, the red warning light of 'in operation' is still on.She knew that his master's life was in the hands of the doctors inside.

Even though there were 1 people who were not reconciled, when she saw the life leaking out of his body little by little, she was helpless.

The so-called contract is like a joke at this time, so powerless and pale.

【What are you afraid of? 】

Startled.

Scared?

How many deaths has she faced so far, has she ever been afraid?

[Then why didn't you let go and watch? 】

[Just like you have always done. 】

no.no.

At that time she wanted to save him! !Obviously want to save him! !

He clenched his hands tightly, the nails were deeply embedded in the skin of the palms, and the blood drops slid down between the fingers and hit the floor, blooming gorgeous flowers one after another.

At that time, Mingming held those hands so tightly, but he couldn't hold on to anything.

That was before the night was lit up with stern flames, and the dawn was covered by despair.

[I went. 】

[You... leave. 】

[This is mine, the responsibility and destiny of the Patriarch of the Zhang family.You don't have to be my funeral. 】

[If I die, the contract will no longer exist. 】

[I'm sorry for keeping you bound for so long. 】

【Goodbye, Nine. 】

That was the last time she stood behind him and saw his side face smiling back.

He had given her everything.But what is left now is only the memory of the broken rock and the wall and this cold black gold ancient knife.

Now, you say.

Is it all in vain?

She didn't know how long it had been before she heard the sound of the door of the operating room opening, looked up, and saw Zhang Qiling and Fatty being pushed out with the drip on.

"Are you a family member of the patient?" a doctor asked her, pulling off his light green mask.Ajiu hesitated for a moment, but nodded.

"Please don't worry, the patient is out of danger safely." The doctor smiled as if to comfort him: "All the wounds are not critical, and there is no serious injury except for excessive blood loss. Fortunately, they have been treated before being transported here. Emergency hemostatic measures were taken, otherwise his life would really hang in the balance.”

Hemostatic measures?

She thought of the ashes that were put on Zhang Qiling's wound.It should be Wu Xie's masterpiece, right?

Probably noticing the tiredness on her face, the doctor said again: "They should wake up soon, there are nurses here to take care of them, you should go home and rest first."

"No." Ajiu shook her head.

Now, she just wants to stay by his side.

<<<<<

When the brain consciousness returned to Zhang Qiling's control, he, like ordinary people, thought of this sentence.

— Am I dead?

There was no immediate answer, and the fragments of memories flashed in my mind like a revolving lantern.

When the body catches up with the speed of the brain through various nerves, various senses gradually recover, and the pain in the whole body hits like a rising tide.

——If I can feel pain, it means that I am still alive.

He came to this conclusion, but because of excessive blood loss and not eating for a long time, now he can't even move a finger.

But this did not prevent him from feeling the cold touch coming from his left hand.

A hand held his left hand tightly, so hard that it hurt him a little.

The line of sight touched a piece of black.

玖？

She sat on the tiled floor out of character, with her upper body lying on the side of the hospital bed, one hand tightly grasping her left hand.Her face was buried in her arms, as if she was asleep.

In fact, she really felt the long-lost tiredness, but it was not physical, so when Zhang Qiling's hand twitched due to conditioned reflex, she immediately woke up.

The moment he met her eyes, he clearly saw some strong emotions surging out of those black pupils.Then calm down.

Looking at each other silently for a few seconds, Ajiu looked away and let go of the fingers that were stiff due to too tight grip.

"I'm going to call the doctor."

Watching her back leave the ward, Zhang Qiling's eyes sank.

Her expression just now seemed familiar.

<<<<<

It was already the afternoon of the third day after Wu Xie came to visit the two of them.

"Naive?" The fat man who was eating rice in his mouth threw down the plate when Wu Xie pushed the door and entered, and went up to give him a bear hug.

Wu Xie also burst into tears with excitement, hugged him and patted his fleshy shoulder hard, the fat man bared his teeth in pain.

The scene of meeting after life and death is very touching.

Letting go of the fat man, Wu Xie walked up to Zhang Qiling, and nodded with embarrassment.

"Brother, are you feeling better?"

Ah Jiu, who was leaning on the side, couldn't help but burst out laughing seeing his expression.If the target wasn't Zhang Qiling, she thought he would jump on him like the bear hugged the fat man just now.

It's a pity that a certain facial paralysis who didn't understand the mood just raised his head and uttered a syllable.

"Ah."

"By the way, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you've gained weight again." Wu Xie put the fruit she brought to visit on the bedside table, and pulled a stool casually between the two beds to sit down.

"Of course." Ah Jiu said while peeling the apple brought by Wu Xie with a knife: "He eats three sick meals by himself... The nurse I met in the corridor a few days ago said that if he continues to do this If you eat like this, you will have to pay more.”

The fat man chewed the braised pork and said inarticulately: "Fatty, I am not short of the meal money."

"No...compared to this." Wu Xie looked at Ajiu skillfully turning the fruit knife with her forehead full of black lines, and took off a thin layer of skin from the apple, and then handed the white and tender flesh inside to Zhang Qiling, The latter took it slowly, took a bite with a blank face, and couldn't accept it for a while: "Your image has changed too quickly, right? When did you become so virtuous?"

"Ah?" Ajiu raised her eyebrows, and looked at Wu Xie with a subtle look: "What? Do you want to compare sword skills with me?"

"No, you totally misunderstood, and what does that 'are you idiot' look mean?!"

Wu Xie and Fatty chatted about trivial matters one by one, and they talked about the space where the three of them were trapped this time.He explained the legend and characteristics of 'Miluotuo' in detail.

"..."

After listening, the room was dead silent.The fat man frowned with a thoughtful look, while Zhang Qiling's expression remained unchanged except that he froze for a moment after hearing the word 'Miluotuo'.

"Although we know the true colors of those monsters, how did we get into that space?" Wu Xie said to himself while pinching his chin.

"They can change their shape as they wish. In a certain space, they can change the shape, density, and move slowly." Ajiu leaned back in the chair and said lazily: "So, It is not impossible to open a hole in the rock and put you in it and then close it...Wu Xie, did Wu Erbai tell you about Mi Luotuo?"

Wu Xie was taken aback, then nodded: "Do you know my second uncle?"

"Yes. I met once not long ago." Pretending not to see Zhang Qiling's questioning gaze, she casually said.

If it wasn't an emergency, she might secretly investigate this man named Wu Erbai.

The person in the photo he showed her was undoubtedly Zhang Qishan, the grandson of the former holder of the black gold ancient knife, who abandoned her in the robbery cave more than 80 years ago.

Well, she herself was amazed at the fact that she hadn't forgotten the name after all this time.

"But why are you alright, Ajiu?"

"Eh?"

Wu Xie asked a question inadvertently, Fatty and Zhang Qiling's attention was all shifted to her.

"At that time, Ajiu went into the water with me, right? And it seems to have dived several times before that. Why was Ajiu the only one who wasn't moved to that enclosed space?"

Turning her head, her expression was a little dull, Wu Xie's face was clearly not far away, but she couldn't adjust the focus well no matter what.

"Miluotuo will sense the nearby heat source and the breath of living things, then turn his attention to it and devour it. Therefore, there is only one reason why they didn't find me."

"Probably, because I'm not 'alive'."

<<<<<

"...The doctor said that I can be discharged from the hospital in half a month. I'm going back to Hangzhou first, and I'll go to Changsha by the way. You and my brother will go to Beijing with Fatty first."

When Wu Xie left, Ajiu sent him to the corridor. After some discussion just now, it was unanimously decided to temporarily 'deposit' Ajiu and Zhang Qiling with Fatty after they were discharged from the hospital.Before he left, he told Fatty to keep an eye on Zhang Qiling. He knew that if Zhang Qiling wanted to hide from them, they would not be able to find him even if they borrowed Monkey King's somersault cloud, and another unreliable sword soul would definitely help him. He disappeared while playing with his master, so this heavy responsibility fell on the fat man's shoulders.

"Hmm." She nodded.

"Then I'll go first, see you later." Wu Xie put on her bag, waved her hand and turned to leave.

"Wu Xie."

When he was about to reach the corner, Ajiu stopped him.He stopped and turned around, only to see that she was silent for a long time, with her eyelids drooping as if she was thinking about something.

"..."

"Ajiu? What's wrong?"

"Thank you."

"……what?"

Thank you for saving him.
