Chapter 233 Idiot
"You care about me so much, how could I bear to let you die?"
Zhang Yan leaned close to Meng Qingyin and spoke in a very flippant tone.
Meng Qingyin couldn't hold back and punched him in the face: "Just talk, why are you standing so close to me?"
Zhang Yan covered his face, looking at her incredulously: "You woman, really... How could you do this to someone as handsome as me?"
Meng Qingyin sneered: "If you come at me again next time, it won't just be a matter of fists."
Zhang Yan said irritably, "I know, I won't get so close to you next time, is that alright?"
He rubbed his face. "You hit me way too hard, woman. My face is all swollen..."
Meng Qingyin didn't want to say anything more to him, so she turned and left.
Back on the original road, Meng Qingyin began to contemplate "non-awareness".
This poison is just as deadly as blood.
This further solidified her guess that "apathy" was most likely obtained through the use of abilities.
How many more powerful items like these does Zhang Yan have?
...
That night, Meng Qingyin had another dream, in which she returned to her childhood.
The white fox was in the room, quietly waiting for her.
Seeing her arrive, it said somewhat casually, "I guess you have a lot of questions to ask me. Go ahead and ask."
Meng Qingyin immediately said, "Regarding Zai Zai, Master Meng'er said that the moment I signed the contract with Zai Zai, its soul entered the divine beast egg, but I clearly did not sign a contract with Zai Zai, and... the timing is too coincidental."
The white fox nimbly walked up to her, jumped into her arms and found a comfortable position before saying, "That's right, I did it."
"When the last Taotie died, I extracted its soul and nurtured it, waiting for the right opportunity."
“Your drop of blood is the contract. The moment your blood fell into the divine beast egg, I released the soul of the Taotie and let it parasitize the divine beast egg. From that moment, your contract was officially established.”
Meng Qingyin's guess was correct; it was the White Fox that played a role in the middle.
"You can actually extract, preserve, and release a soul?" Such power is terrifying.
[White Fox] Explanation: "We, the white fox clan, are born with a very keen sense of perception and smell for souls."
Meng Qingyin stroked its fur: "But why did you do this? Why did you put the soul of the Taotie into the divine beast egg and make it form a contract with me?"
Since she learned that the white fox posed no threat to her, Meng Qingyin was no longer afraid of it.
It looks so much like the little white kitten she had when she was a child. She couldn't resist petting it, mistaking it for the kitten.
The white fox squinted, looking quite comfortable, but did not answer her question.
Meng Qingyin asked in confusion, "A white fox?"
Is this guy asleep?
[White Fox] Correction: "Call me Little White."
Meng Qingyin was stunned.
noob?
That was the name she gave the little white cat, 【White Fox】. Why did she make her call it Little White?
"Why are you..." Meng Qingyin stared blankly at the White Fox.
The white fox brushed its fluffy tail against her hand, its tone accusing: "You really have forgotten me."
A hint of grievance appeared in its crimson eyes. Apart from the color of its eyes, the more Meng Qingyin looked at it, the more it resembled Xiaobai.
Meng Qingyin was shocked: "You're the Xiaobai who was with me back then?"
The white fox glanced at her. "So you finally remember me?"
Meng Qingyin found it unbelievable: "But Xiaobai's eyes aren't red, your eyes..."
She had once suspected that the "White Fox" was the little white cat, but the little white cat's eyes were a pure, glassy color, not the crimson red of the "White Fox's."
[White Fox] lowered her head, her tone inexplicably somber, "In the White Fox clan, red eyes represent misfortune, while the purer the color, the more welcome it is. I overused my abilities, and there's no going back."
"So, you liked me the way I used to be?" The white fox suddenly looked up at her and asked.
There was a barely perceptible tension in its crimson eyes.
“You were there for me during those toughest days,” Meng Qingyin said, stroking the white fox’s ears. Her voice was filled with the joy of reunion. “No matter what color your eyes are, you are my most important friend. The only thing that bothers me is that your red eyes make me unsure of your identity.”
“I thought I was dreaming,” she paused, then hugged the white fox and rubbed its head against it, “...After all, what kind of talking white cat is that?”
The white fox was delighted, but couldn't help correcting herself: "I'm not a little white cat, I'm a white fox."
"Okay, you're my little white rabbit."
The white fox's beautiful tail rubbed against her arm. "So you've never forgotten me?"
Meng Qingyin said earnestly, "I will always remember you."
The white fox was pleased and looked up at her, "Alright, then I forgive you for not recognizing me that day."
Speaking of this, Meng Qingyin couldn't help but ask, "By the way, what were the last two words of what you said that day?"
The white fox lowered its head somewhat embarrassedly, saying, "I said you're an idiot." An idiot who forgot about it.
but……
So she hadn't forgotten it after all.
Meng Qingyin sighed helplessly, "Alright."
White Fox: "Alright, let's get back to business. Do you have any more questions?"
Meng Qingyin stroked its chin. "You haven't answered my question yet."
Moreover, she has far too many problems.
The white fox said solemnly, "There are not only life forms from Earth here, but also Taotie, whose potential is limitless. It can protect you better than any divine beast."
Meng Qingyin's eyes were moved: "Why are you so good to me?"
When she was a child, she was locked in that room, and the white fox brought her water and medicine. Even after she entered the road survival game, the white fox still racked her brains to think about her.
What merit or ability does she possess?
The white fox did not answer the question; a trace of sorrow flashed in its crimson eyes.
Meng Qingyin sighed more at the question; the white fox didn't say anything, and she didn't ask any further.
"You've already looked at Zhang Yan's memories. Did you find anything unusual? For example, did he lose a certain period of his memory?" Meng Qingyin suddenly remembered what Lear had said about "awakening".
White Fox: "Zhang Yan's memory is complete and continuous. He remembers everything that happened from his birth to entering the game very clearly, without any gaps. There is no amnesia as you mentioned."
Meng Qingyin pondered, what exactly was the "awakening" that Lear mentioned?
Seeing that she looked thoughtful, the white fox asked, "What's wrong? Is there any progress?"
Meng Qingyin said, "I impersonated Zhang Yan. Li Er once said she would help me awaken. What do you think she meant by 'awakening'?"
