Xi took the "flint" with a confused expression.
Faintly, she could still feel the warmth of Master's palm remaining on the stone.
Master has said more than once that he will leave here and cannot stay with her forever.
Xi also thought that she was mentally prepared to say goodbye to him.
However, when this day really came, Xi still felt ups and downs in her heart and was unwilling to accept this reality.
"Master, are you trying to scare me?" She reached out and grabbed Gu Xu's sleeve again, and said with the last bit of self-deceiving hope, "You think I haven't practiced hard enough recently, and you want to use This way to motivate me"
Gu Xu said nothing.
At this moment, a dull gray-white mist appeared in his field of vision, and as time passed, it became more and more dense.
He knew that these fogs were the Hunyuan Qi at the edge of the world.
When they completely envelope him, he will leave this era that does not belong to him.
For the next period of time, the two stood side by side on the endless wilderness, looking at the setting sun slowly setting at the end of the earth.
The sun shines on the ground, dyeing the sand, gravel and soil into ocher red, as if soaked in blood. A few dead trees stood alone among them, casting mottled shadows and swaying gently in the roaring wind.
Xi turned to look at Gu Xu.
In her eyes, the master's figure is becoming more and more dull, gradually becoming translucent, and may turn into a light smoke at any time and disperse with the wind.
At this moment, she truly felt that the two of them were really not from the same world.
She bit her lip, opened her arms, and hugged Gu Xu's waist like a koala hugging the trunk of a tree.
It seemed that as long as she hugged him tightly enough, she could keep the master.
"Master, you are so powerful. If you have the opportunity in the future, can you come back to see me?" She said softly, tears rolling in her eyes, "I really, really I can’t bear to leave you."
Zhushu A, recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years, is really easy to use. I rely on it to pass the time by reading and listening to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here
Gu Xu lowered his head and looked at her.
When the sun was about to sink into the horizon, the clouds in the sky were reflected in the color of flames, and her clear eyes reflected bright light.
The young and beautiful face of the girl once again overlapped with the Zhao Yan in his memory who was standing on the pier to see him off.
The two women look very similar. There may be slight differences in personality due to different experiences, but the way of expressing emotions is the same straightforward, frank and no-nonsense way.
The love for him is clearly written on his face.
Gu Xu sighed lightly.
"I don't know," he said honestly.
Whether it is "Guixu" or "Hunyuan Qi", they are the ultimate secrets of this universe. Even if you are as powerful as "Ziwei Emperor", you cannot accurately control what will happen in "Guixu" Travel back and forth to where and when.
When the sun set and the dark night covered the entire world, the master hugged tightly in Xi's arms completely disappeared, as if he had turned into air.
If it weren't for the fact that the animal bone spear and the "flint" were still with her, she would even suspect that the encounter between herself and her master in the past few days was simply a dream.
Her legs weakened and she couldn't help but fall to the ground, looking up at the stars in the sky shining with cold light.
Her tribe members were talking and laughing not far away, their voices carried by the wind, and they sounded lively.
But Xi felt an unprecedented loneliness.
Overnight, she seemed to finally understand what it felt like to "grow up".
Gu Xu was shrouded in thick gray mist and didn't know where he was.
He held the "astrolabe" tightly in his hand.
The thumb-sized weapon spirit stood on the surface of the "astrolabe" with his hands on his hips. Now that there were no outsiders around, he began to chatter towards Gu Xu again.
"My stupid master, have you ever realized that this little girl named Xi is the previous life of your king's lover?"
"I know," Gu Xu Dandan said, "Besides, let me tell you again, Zhao Yan is not my lover."
In fact, not long after Gu Xu returned to ancient times, he had already realized that this Red Fire Tribe , is the ancestor of the Youzhou Zhao family thousands of years ago.
And Xi is naturally the "holy girl" in the Vulcan legend and Zhao Yan's previous life.
When he jumped into the waterfall at the end of the East China Sea, he never expected that he would meet Zhao Yan again thousands of years ago
He also did not expect that in the legend, The "God of Fire" who stole fire, taught people to practice, and led people to build homes was actually himself who accidentally returned to the past
"No wonder I took over the fire without any effort. God’s faith and authority,” he thought silently, “so this book belongs to me.”
At this time, he couldn’t help but recall the legends he had seen in books
p>
“When the God of Fire was killed by thunder from the gods above the nine heavens, the Saint became the new leader of the human race, leading people to resist the invasion of ghosts.”
“The Saint remained unmarried her entire life. , dedicated everything to her faith and the cause of the rise of the human race. Even when she was dying, she left her last words, saying that if there was an afterlife, she would still serve the gods."
" "Died by lightning" should be the reason people in ancient times made up to explain his sudden disappearance.
But Xi’s life left him with mixed emotions.
He used to think that the saint should just be a fanatical and devout believer.
Now he understands that it was his accidental time travel that missed her life.
"No wonder Zhao Yan thought I looked familiar when we first met."
"No wonder the statue of the God of Fire in the temple is wearing the clothes of contemporary people."
"It turns out that all of this is the cause and effect of thousands of years ago."
When Gu Xu was filled with emotion, the "Astrolabe" tool spirit couldn't help but interjected, "Master, are you still here?" Do you remember that you nodded in front of Zhao Yan that night?"
"What did you nod?" Gu Xu frowned.
"She asked you, if the person you met first was her, would you choose her?" Qi Ling chuckled, looking like he was worried that the world would not be chaotic, "Look , you met her in ancient times, and she has been waiting for you for thousands of years. If you continue to refuse to take responsibility, you will be no different from a heartless man who always gives up."
"Shut up" Gu Xu interrupted him.
At this moment, his mind was in a mess.
He originally wanted to say that the "first" and "last" here should refer to his subjective time.
But then he thought about it and felt that it was not interesting to debate such a complicated issue as "time and space" with a pervert with a brain defect, so he simply remained silent.
At the same time.
Thousands of miles away in Jicheng, Zhao Yan, who had just become the king, woke up from her sleep. ,,
