Chapter 20 What is a Covenant?
The man probably didn't expect Xie Liang to ask so directly. After a while, he raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I like it very much."
Xie Liang didn't know what to say. He touched the flute in his pocket, smiled at him and said, "Let me play the flute for you."
The man replied, "Yeah."
Xie Liang took out his flute and played it randomly. When he was done, he asked, "Does it sound good?"
The man asked back: "Is it the song you used to hum?"
Before? Xie Liang thought: Does he know me? Thinking of this, he asked directly: "Isn't this the first time we met?"
The man looked at Xie Liang with a wronged look on his face, as if blaming Xie Liang for forgetting him.
"It's not the first time."
Hearing his certain tone, Xie Liang began to re-examine the man in front of him. The more he looked, the more familiar his facial features seemed. But in this situation, Xie Liang really couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
The man stuffed the long gown in his hand into Xie Liang's hand: "You just agreed to marry me, those are for you, and those on the seabed are all yours too." The man pointed to the circle of boxes placed in the crater and said to him.
"Ah? What did I promise?" Xie Liang was confused.
The man explained: "If you accept this gown, it means you are willing to be my bride."
"It was circling in front of me. I was so anxious and upset that I..."
The man looked lonely: "Xiaoliang, you said before that you would always be with me. Aren't you happy to see me?"
Xie Liang still couldn't remember who he was, but he knew he had to find a way to get out.
"Uh... you give me a very familiar feeling. Close your eyes and let me take a closer look. Maybe I can remember it."
Upon hearing this, the man actually slowly closed his narrow eyes.
Xie Liang gently moved his feet and took a few steps back. The man immediately noticed it, opened his eyes, and looked at Xie Liang in confusion.
"I want to see your whole body. I think it's been a while since we last met."
This was the only thing Xie Liang could be sure of. If he had seen him recently, he would not have forgotten him. After all, the man in front of him had an outstanding appearance and figure.
Under Xie Liang's coaxing, the man slowly closed his eyes again. While the man was closing his eyes, he rushed towards Shi Xiaoyin.
Before Xie Liang could run to her, Shi Xiaoyin, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately swung the whip in her hand and wrapped it around his waist. Then she pulled the whip hard, turned around and jumped into the vortex gate. He was dragged into the gate by Shi Xiaoyin.
The man stood at the place where Xie Liang last disappeared, puzzled. He couldn't understand how Xie Liang could disappear when there was clearly nothing in front of him.
The man lowered his eyes dejectedly: "Xiaoliang...you said you would always be with me."
When Xie Liang returned to reality, he was still squatting on the toilet, but the difference was that he had a blue gown made of human skin in his hand.
Why did you bring it out here? This dress is made of human skin after all. It's really disgusting. Xie Liang quickly got up from the toilet and threw the blue gown into a corner of the study.
After making an appointment with Xiao Ha and the others to meet at the teahouse the next day, he had dinner and went to bed to rest.
When he woke up, it was the next morning. There was still more than an hour before the agreed time of twelve o'clock. Xie Liang quickly got up and dressed himself so as not to be late.
When Xie Liang entered the agreed private room, Xiao Ha and Li Dong were already waiting inside. Not long after he sat down, Xu He came in from the door.
"We just ordered some random dishes. You two can see if there's anything else you want to eat." Xiao Ha said as he handed him the menu.
Xie Liang casually added two dishes, then handed the menu to Xu He: "Come, take a look at what you like to eat, order whatever you want, it's my treat."
Xu He was a little depressed. He thought Xie Liang had only invited him, but he didn't expect there was someone else. He took the menu and put it aside: "No, I've already eaten."
Xie Liang pondered for a moment and asked, "Uh, have you entered any other small worlds since you came back last time?"
Li Dong shook his head and said, "No, I've been eating and drinking like crazy at home these past few days. I'm afraid that when the next time comes, I'll die before I can even eat what I want."
"I don't have one either. Why are you asking? Did you come again later?" Xiao Ha looked at Xie Liang and asked.
"Yes, it was yesterday. Brother He, how about you?" Xie Liang said.
Xu He looked at Xie Liang and said softly, "Me neither. Everyone's arrival time is different."
"Oh shit! No way! Brother Liang, you're back alive so soon?" Li Dong exclaimed.
Xie Liang: "Well, luckily I came back alive and unharmed."
Xie Liang told them about his experience in the previous small world.
"Why did I return to reality with that long gown?" Xie Liang asked.
"I think it's because that piece of clothing is not an ordinary piece of clothing, so I can bring it out," said Xiao Ha.
"You said that man knew you? Don't you know who he is?" Li Dong asked.
"I can't remember, but it does look familiar."
Xie Liang then said in frustration, "I forgot to ask Shi Xiaoyin how she and Lu Baixing entered the same dungeon."
"Yes! How did they enter the same small world?" Li Dong asked belatedly.
"I know." Xu He said suddenly.
The three of them looked at Xu He, only to see him pick up the tea in front of him, take a sip, and say slowly, "Do you want to know?"
Li Dong couldn't wait to ask, "Brother! Is there any need to ask? We definitely want to know!"
Xiao Ha: "I heard that only people from their dark organization know how to form a bond. This brother is..."
Xu He said coldly, "I have nothing to do with them." Then he looked at Xie Liang and said, "Make a contract."
Xie Liang was a little confused: "Contract?"
"What's a contract? It seems very mysterious!" Li Dong said carelessly.
Xiao Ha: "I saw a post about a dark organization online. There were two replies saying that after a contract is made, when the time for one of the parties to descend arrives, all the people who made the contract with that person will descend into the small world together."
"Will the difficulty of the copy be more difficult?" Xie Liang asked.
"The copies will only get harder each time. There is no easy copy." Xiao Ha said.
Tea and snacks were served one after another. Except for Xu He, the three of them were so hungry that their stomachs were growling, and they quickly finished the basket of dumplings that had just been served.
Xie Liang chewed on the carrot cake and asked, "Uh... then how can we form a contract?"
Xiao Ha shook his head and said that he didn't know how to make a contract, and then he and Li Dong started eating.
Xu He looked at Xie Liang's eager expression and couldn't help but twitch his lips: "Make a pact with me, and I will tell you."
"Ah? Are you sure? I don't have any special abilities, so it might not be beneficial for you to form a contract with me." Xie Liang said.
"I'm sure." Xu He's voice sounded firm.
Li Dong heard it and looked at Xu He eagerly: "Take me with you, I can be your vanguard, just tell me to do anything you need." As he said that, he leaned over and squeezed towards Xu He.
Xu He glanced at him coldly, and he sat back in his seat and continued to eat his snacks.
Xie Liang asked Xu He, "How many people can form a pact together at a time?"
"Two people."
Li Dong was so disappointed after hearing this that he shouted, "Damn it! I'm screwed, both of you! I still want to hug your thighs!"
After saying that, he turned to Xiao Ha and said, "Look, they're both together now. Do you want us to be together?"
Xiao Ha said without objection, "Sure. One person will die, and two people will die too. I'm fine with that."
Seeing that he agreed, Li Dong said happily: "What's there to be afraid of? Live one day at a time and earn one day at a time!"
