Chapter 71 Chapter 71 The wind stopped, and the leaves...
The wind stopped, the leaves stopped falling, and the stones and dust were still floating in the air. Bai Tianming immediately controlled the stones and dust and dropped them to the ground.
In this way, although the sky was still dim and did not look very bright, as if a light was needed, the ground was much cleaner than before.
After all, there is a difference between things flying around and lying quietly on the ground.
Bai Tianming rushed to the flowers and looked at each one carefully. He found that the flowers were not seriously damaged. They were just a little wilted by the wind. Occasionally, some petals were beaten by the leaves, but it was not serious.
After all, leaves are not very heavy, so even if they hit you, it will only make a small noise. What's more, the leaves only fall after the wind stops, so they don't have the chance to torture the flowers repeatedly.
Therefore, even if the flowers were damaged, it was not serious.
Bai Tianming breathed a sigh of relief.
He suddenly heard a noise behind him. He slowly turned his head and saw that it was the unicorns not far away who were blown so hard that they could not stand steadily, crashing into each other.
The next second, Apos, who was not seen in the daytime holding the box in the gap between the unicorns with a look of fear on his face, raised his eyebrows. Apos's expression had always been calm before. Even if there were some small changes, they were just ordinary fluctuations. Now it seemed that something had happened, and it was not the unicorns' business.
Bai Tianming thought about it and walked over. The unicorns quickly made way. Boaz was stretching his head to look into Apos's arms. He didn't even notice when Bai Tianming walked up to him.
It is also possible that he noticed it, but didn't want to move away, so he pretended that he didn't notice it. Bai Tianming pressed his shoulders and moved him away from him, and walked in front of Apos.
Boaz reluctantly moved aside, rubbed his shoulder, and muttered, "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"
Bai Tianming glanced at him and just moved him away from him, which didn't require much strength. Even if he used a little more strength, he was strong and physically strong, so the pain would not be so severe as he could describe.
He is, as always, fond of exaggeration.
Boaz saw Bai Tianming looking over, rubbed his shoulder, put his hand down, and immediately smiled. He tilted his head and came over without any hesitation, like a puppy wagging its tail for food, and asked happily, "How are you going to compensate me?"
Bai Tianming narrowed his eyes. He felt the absurdity of being blackmailed on the street, and the comedy of being asked for candy by an adult with a pumpkin on his head on Halloween. He dug into his pocket, took out the petals he had just picked up, and handed them to him: "If you want them, I'll give them to you as compensation."
Boaz took the item without hesitation, but upon closer inspection, he discovered it was just some fallen petals. Suddenly, he felt a little disappointed, frowning pitifully as he asked, "Nothing else?"
"Don't want it? Give it back to me!" Bai Tianming smiled and stretched out his hand to him without hesitation.
Boaz immediately took the thing back and held it against his heart, pressing it with both hands. He looked like he was cherishing it very much and snorted, "I won't give you what you just said you would give me."
Bai Tianming laughed, took his hand back, and looked at Apos who was standing next to him.
Apos looked at him eagerly, loosened the box in his hand a little, and handed it to him. There were already cracks on the surface of the box, and it looked like it would not last long.
Everything is implied.
After all, this was just an ordinary gift from an ordinary thank-you recipient. No matter how expensive the gift was, the gift box could not remain intact in the aftermath of a battle as severe as a world war.
If this box really has such strong protection and such high defense, then the box would probably be more expensive than the gift.
Bai Tianming reached out and took the box, restoring its appearance to its original state. He felt the weight and shape of the things in the box, and seemed to be thinking about something with a subtle expression.
"What's wrong?" Apos was a little nervous. Could something have gone wrong? That would be terrible! I must not let that happen! I must not!
"It's nothing," Bai Tianming smiled at him and comforted him. "The item is in good condition, but the box is a little cracked. It's okay. I've already repaired it. Take it away now."
Although Bai Tianming had said this, Apos still felt uneasy. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded and couldn't help but ask tentatively, "If you leave now, the two up there are still fighting. What should we do?"
Bai Tianming was holding the box, a little confused: "What should I do?"
Apos smiled bitterly and said, "If they come down after the battle and see that there are only a group of unicorns and me and--"
He paused. He was well aware that Boaz was nearby, but he felt uncomfortable even pronouncing Boaz's name. So he frowned and said seriously, "I'm afraid they won't be happy about that thing."
Bai Tianming tilted his head and said, "If you're unhappy, then so be it. It won't be a big deal. Are you worried about what they might do to you?"
Bai Tianming thought for a moment, then took out a leaf he had picked up earlier in the strong wind, handed it to him with a smile, and said to him with interest and meaning, "Take this and treat it as a talisman. As long as you are still here, they can't hurt you."
Apos held the leaf, blinked his eyes, and like a sloth that had been forcibly awakened, he lay on the tree trunk and asked slowly: "If I leave here, they won't tear me apart alive, right?"
Bai Tianming suddenly laughed: "You take them too seriously. How can they be so excessive? As far as I know, they haven't done anything like that yet."
Apos shuddered, smiled bitterly, and said nothing.
Boaz looked at the two of them and said excitedly, "I know that! Actually—"
He looked up and saw the beating was still going on. He lowered his voice to the two people beside him, especially Bai Tianming, and said mysteriously, "The priest has done something like that."
Before he could finish his words, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, splitting Boaz in two with a snap. Boaz fell to the ground, covered in black, and trembled for a while.
Bai Tianming stood by and watched him. He rolled over and got up from the ground, put his two halves together, and pulled out a rope from somewhere. He tied a bow around his waist. There were still marks on his face from being split open, but he didn't care at all. With a dark face, he smiled and asked Bai Tianming, "Why don't you seem afraid at all?"
Bai Tianming remained silent.
He had seen far more terrifying things in the past, so what was there to be afraid of now? No matter how terrifying something was, as long as it was still there, he could force it to be less terrifying. So, what was there to be afraid of?
Boaz laughed to himself, as if he had received an answer from the air. "I see! You've seen this before? That's true. You didn't say you hadn't seen them chop people in half in front of you. That wouldn't be strange, it's normal."
Bai Tianming remained silent.
Let’s just assume it is like this, it’s not wrong.
"Let me get back to what happened before," Boaz tilted his head to look at Bai Tianming, then walked around him twice in a crooked, completely unhuman manner and said slowly, "It was during a mission. I saw the priest kill a man in front of me. The man was very lively at first, but the priest used a formation and the man became speechless.
Afterwards, the priest released a live wolf with three heads, which was said to be a variant of the Cerberus Cerberus. The wolf ate the man bite by bite.
The man was not dead yet because the priest wanted to torture him slowly, so he gave him a drop of the fountain of life. The fountain of life was a special liquid like water that could give people extremely strong vitality, but for such a tortured person, the fountain of life was poison, even more poisonous than poison.
In short, when that person died, he was like a piece of squid, with every part of his body being torn apart and unable to be pieced together. It's hard to tell whether it was dry or not, but it's certain that if you want to say he was torn apart alive, there's no doubt about it."
Bai Tianming stared at Boaz for a while, then slowly shook his head. With an extremely determined attitude, he said calmly, "That's a lie."
Boaz was stunned for a moment, then he jumped in front of Bai Tianming with a zombie-like smile, leaning over and asking, "How could that be? Everything I said is true!"
Bai Tianming looked at him calmly and said, "While you were speaking, I looked through your body's memory. Your body doesn't remember you ever having experienced such an incident. You are lying."
Boaz was silent for a moment. He had not expected to be discovered so quickly, nor had he expected Bai Tianming to actually search his physical memory. He was a little surprised, but then he became interested. He felt that Bai Tianming and he had similarities. He was very excited and said with a smile: "Just because my body doesn't remember, doesn't mean I don't remember."
"You mean, you've changed your body but not your brain?" Bai Tianming remained calm and asked the question in a very polite and scientific manner.
"I've had a brain transplant," Boaz said with a smile. "It's just a brand new one. So even if you search my brain, you can't find my memory."
"That's something you made up." Bai Tianming looked at him and said calmly.
"How could that be?" Boaz asked in surprise, his eyes widening in an exaggerated manner.
Bai Tianming looked at him like he was watching a circus performance and said, "This is my territory. I can tell whether it's real or fake at a glance. No matter where the memory you're talking about is, it's fake."
Boaz slowly put away the expression on his face, looked at Bai Tianming for a while with an extremely serious look as if he was studying an experiment, and then sighed with great emotion.
