Chapter 581 Next Stop (48)
Being able to successfully drive Dijiang does not come without any cost.
Countless souls had died in vain at Fei's hands. After signing a life-and-death soul contract with Dijiang a thousand years ago, they established a rule: of any soul summoned by Fei, only a small portion of its soul could be taken as food, without harming the soul's essence.
Once a soul is absorbed by a flying demon, or a person dies in vain because of a flying demon.
They will violate the soul contract.
"Bury her? Did I say I wanted her to die?"
Fei calmly pushed away the sword that was against his neck, seemingly not caring at all about what others thought of him.
Upon hearing this, Di Jiang slowly sheathed his sword.
But he still looked at him coldly without saying a word. After a long stalemate, Di Jiang threw down a word and turned away.
"Whatever you want, just don't cross my line."
The space returned to silence.
Fei looked away, gazing into the distance. Across the endless void, he seemed to be able to see Qiao Xi, who was still at the sixth station.
Inside the car.
Cheng Xin, with a bewildered look on his face, had not yet recovered from the sudden change of being pulled back. He remembered that he was still being abused by the eldest son of some family, and then he beat the other person up.
This caused a bunch of people from that family to come and complain about him.
After that, he beat up all the old and young ones, and found that the super powers those people talked about were just like tickling him, and were of no use at all.
Then.
The last battle had just been won, and the head of the family was about to come out.
Cheng Xin felt as if someone had suddenly grabbed him by the back of his collar.
The world spun around him, and he found himself back in the train. Not only him, but also Ye Ran and Chen Kexin, who were having lunch, were all very surprised when they saw him suddenly appear out of nowhere.
"Cough, cough cough cough..."
Chen Kexin almost couldn't swallow a mouthful of rice. She was startled by the sudden appearance of Cheng Xin and choked.
She was in a panic and quickly picked up the water next to her and took a big gulp.
He felt much better now, and after recovering from his shock, he looked at Cheng Xin.
"You, you, you, why are you back? Did you complete your mission?" She even stuttered a little, and you could imagine how shocked she was. Qiao Xi hadn't come out yet, and their screen was often blocked from seeing Qiao Xi.
I can't see anything.
It is indeed depressing.
So later on, Chen Kexin and Ye Ran simply stopped watching Qiao Xi's live broadcast room. The screen was always blocked, and when they did connect, it was intermittent, or they would see Qiao Xi talking to different people.
I don’t know what he is doing.
Since she couldn't understand it, she could only choose to give up temporarily. However, when Ye Ran saw it, he would sometimes show a thoughtful expression.
"Is it so?"
Cheng Xin, who was sitting on the ground, was also a little confused. He simply stood up, patted his pants, and then rummaged through his body to find his own cell phone.
The latest updates in the chat room.
It really shows that he has completed the task.
"It's really over." Cheng Xin looked at the message in the chat room in disbelief. Then he grinned, looked around and asked.
"Where's Qiao Xi? Has she come back?"
"No." Chen Kexin shook her head honestly in response to Cheng Xin's question.
"Is that so?" The boy was not discouraged when he heard this, but just scratched his head.
Chen Kexin took the initiative to make room for him, and even pushed the remaining two lunch boxes toward Cheng Xin: "Here, for you and Qiao Xi. We still distribute lunch in the car every day, but we can't finish it every day."
"Thanks."
Cheng Xin also sat a little further away from Chen Kexin, then turned his head to look at Ye Ran who was still wearing headphones and playing games over there.
"Brother Ran, have you eaten?"
The boy wearing headphones raised his head slightly when he heard this and took off one of his headphones: "I've eaten."
No psychological burden.
Cheng Xin was no longer polite. In that family, the people he met were all more unreasonable than the last. Moreover, his character design set him up as the quiet and taciturn type who was often bullied.
He also endured it.
But these things have become even more outrageous and are simply taking things too far.
Then he exploded.
He simply couldn't bear it anymore, so he beat up anyone who bullied him. After beating up the small ones, a bigger one came up, so he beat up the bigger one. After beating up the big one, a bigger one came up, and he continued beating them.
These people really have problems with their brains.
He didn't learn his lesson after being beaten, and he even continued to tremble and provoke him. He must be tired of living.
Then he would beat the opponent until he surrendered.
Anyway, he is not having a very comfortable time here, and he doesn't know how Qiao Xi is doing.
Thinking of this, he looked up at the live broadcast in the car.
It doesn't matter if you don't watch it.
Upon seeing it, Cheng Xin was stunned, as if struck by lightning.
"Uh... t-what are you doing?"
He stared at the screen with his eyes wide open in astonishment, and he could hardly speak clearly, seeming to stammer.
In the picture.
Qiao Xi was pulling a stranger's tie, pushing him against the wall. The man's face was slightly red, and he seemed a little shy because of being treated like this.
then.
Before Cheng Xin could take a closer look, the screen suddenly began to flicker.
Without any warning.
The screen suddenly became blurred and turned into a snowy screen where you couldn't see anything.
Ye Ran heard his voice and glanced at the screen.
"You'll get used to it."
When they saw it before, they also thought that there must be something there. After all, the intermittent images were enough to make people imagine.
It is not allowed to be broadcast.
Maybe it's still normal.
When Chen Kexin first watched it, she was very excited and curious about what happened to Qiao Xi, but the live broadcast was interrupted again and again.
It also gradually wore away her enthusiasm.
In the end, there was no ripple in my heart.
"What are they doing?" Cheng Xin was dumbfounded. Whenever the live broadcast was interrupted, the screen would just be a snowy one. How could the audience continue to watch it if it was interrupted at such a high frequency?
"Who knows what they're doing? It's indescribable."
Chen Kexin yawned with her hands on her cheeks. She was used to it and didn't show any reaction.
When it's first disconnected, she might whine a few times.
What's going on? This live broadcast team treats her like an outsider. Is there anything she can't see? This kind of operation happened again and again. Thank you, I've been honed.
Cheng Xin was silent for a while.
He buried his head in his lunch box, occasionally looking up at the screen that was still flickering.
I don’t know how long it has been.
The live broadcast room, which had been full of snow screen, finally returned to normal when he finished two boxed lunches.
only.
But this time it was a little different.
A girl dressed elegantly looked angry, holding a sharp-edged kitchen knife in her hand, and was standing in front of a door.
And in the visible picture.
Inside the room was the strange boy who had been pulled against the wall by Qiao Xi by his tie.
However, strangely, Qiao Xi was not seen here.
And in the live broadcast screen.
Seeing this girl coming.
The young man seemed a little surprised, then his eyes fell on the knife in the other person's hand and he sneered disdainfully.
"What are you doing here? I'm disgusted by you. Get out of here right now."
The boy was not polite at all when he spoke.
The boy crossed his arms and looked coldly at the girl who was standing by the door without taking a step in. When the girl heard what he said, her eyes became even colder.
The hatred in her eyes almost devoured her rational emotions.
However.
But she never stepped into the room where the boy was. Lily hated being in places with Roland. Being with such a person, she even felt that the air around her was polluted.
So disgusting.
The two have always been at odds with each other, and every time they meet they want to kill each other.
After all, their fathers were only friends in public, but they were actually thinking about how to deprive other people in power of their power. The three people in power all wanted to assassinate each other.
No one can truly trust the other.
Their children were no exception. Sometimes, they would just say some polite words in front of the adults, such as marriage alliance.
However, everyone knows that this is impossible.
The adults were just talking. On the surface, it looked like they had no choice but to do so because the children were unwilling, and it seemed that the two families were on good terms.
In fact, who in power is not obsessed with power? There are two other people who are equal to him and are thinking of assassinating him at any time.
I can't even sleep well.
Naturally, no matter how close they are, they will not really hand over any handle to each other.
Children grow up in such an environment.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, parents' guidance strengthens their children's competitive mentality from an early age. This leads to repeated conflicts and accumulated resentment, which naturally makes them more dissatisfied with each other.
Therefore, Lily and Roland’s relationship couldn’t possibly get better.
The situation is like water and fire.
"You took No. 64 away from me?!" The girl, holding the sharp knife tightly, looked gloomy and asked in a harsh voice.
Roland hated her hysterical and crazy look so much that he did not hide the disgust in his eyes and even covered his ears.
The young man was not to be outdone and raised his chin to sneer.
"So what? She actually likes me more! Not you, the yelling, noisy thing!"
These words were like a fuse.
This completely ignited the already tense situation between the two people, and they started using their super powers to fight as soon as they disagreed.
After Qiao Xi balanced Roland's power, his control over his superpowers became even better than before. Furthermore, he no longer felt dizzy, and he felt like a fish in water.
Soon, he was in the upper hand and firmly suppressed Lily.
It’s a pity that Lily is not a vegetarian either.
When she woke up from her nap, she became furious when she found Qiao Xi was not by her side.
Lily was just about to go find Qiao Xi to settle the score and retrieve this hateful auction item that clearly said it loved her but still quietly left her behind.
But I found out when I was checking the surveillance camera in the corridor.
Roland grabbed Qiao Xi's wrist and pulled the auction item away, who looked confused and at a loss.
It was clearly she who called Qiao Xi here first!
It was obviously she who took a fancy to lot No. 64!
Lily was still hysterical and mad, especially under Roland's swift attack. Her superpowers were affected by her manic mood. She became more and more irritable and didn't know how to control the situation. The two fought fiercely.
As for Qiao Xi.
She was hidden by Roland.
The room was beautiful, covered in red velvet and a bed covered in rose petals, which had a refreshing fragrance.
She sat at the dressing table.
At Roland's request, she had changed into a palace silk long dress brought by the maid, which outlined her plump and graceful figure.
Qiao Xi looked at herself in the mirror in silence.
And in the mirror, behind her, a crack appeared silently, as if someone had quietly cut a hole in the space. Then, like a curtain being lifted, the crack slowly widened.
Silently.
The blond boy in a Western-style uniform appeared in the room, right behind her. When he first appeared, he seemed to have noticed Qiao Xi looking in the mirror.
He raised his eyes.
His eyes met Qiao Xi's gaze in the mirror.
Taotie was slightly startled, then looked at her and nodded slightly as a greeting, and then spoke.
"We'll meet you at the terminal."
"What?"
The woman was completely bewildered when he heard this, probably not understanding anything at all. She looked very puzzled, but Taotie remained silent, showing no intention of speaking again.
He really seemed to be just here to deliver a message.
After saying that, Taotie turned around and walked towards the crack that opened when he came.
Seeing this, Qiao Xi's body seemed to react faster than her brain. By the time she came to her senses, she had already grabbed Taotie's wrist. The wrist fell into her palm, feeling a little cold.
When he actually touched it, Qiao Xi felt a little regretful.
But she didn't back down. Instead, she asked casually, "Waiting for me at the terminal, do you mean—are you and the guy who made me lose my memory before and then pretended to be my boyfriend here?"
When Taotie heard her words, his expression suddenly became a little confused.
Then, perhaps figuring something out, he understood. He didn't find the little bit of power he had left behind to seal Qiao Xi's memories, which meant that Qiao Xi still had her memories.
Think about what happened before.
Taotie drooped his eyelids slightly, looked away and said lightly: "Yes."
He didn't seem to intend to have too much entanglement with Qiao Xi. He just lowered his eyes to look at the girl's hand holding his wrist, feeling a little unnatural and unable to calm down.
He knew that Qiao Xi's soul essence had not changed.
But without the memories of the past, Qiao Xi and him were like strangers, and he had taken advantage of the opportunity to get in. He missed it, broke the rules, and should not continue to disturb the life of the current Qiao Xi.
The Qiao Xi he was waiting for did not come back and might never come back.
But he still wanted to wait until she naturally remembered Qiao Xi, who had memories in her previous life.
The one who is obsessed now is chaos.
It may have evolved into an extreme and radical mentality, and Qiongqi once said that the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it.
So I must meet Qiao Xi.
Even though Qiao Xi now has no memories, the essence of his soul is the same, which can make him give up.
However……
Although Taotie was listening to Qiongqi's words and trying to understand these principles, seeing Qiao Xi and others behave in this way, even though he knew they were doing it for survival and to pass the test, it still made his heart ache.
But... he couldn't say it, nor could he show it.
