Chapter 72—The Red Ritual (27)

[Tick! ~】

Bright red blood dripped down the sticking fingers onto the red lotus flowers on the stone floor, while the people who reached out were firmly locked in the iron cages that kept the livestock---

”----------“

Qing walked along the iron cages, followed by the attendants in charge of the small area, their neat black uniforms very different from those of the slaves in the cages. The purpose of the waiter following Qin was not only to lead the way for Qing, but also to keep an eye on Qing and not do anything out of the ordinary.

After Qing walked around the entire slave market, he arched towards the waiter to signal that he needed to think about it, and the waiter politely led Qing to the exit. This feeling made Qing feel very uncomfortable, like --- visiting the vegetable market---- the cage was not locked up by people, but more like livestock---- they were bloodstained, and they did not dare to look elsewhere with low eyebrows. Qing could feel all kinds of emotions, complex and heavy, none of them positive-------

"It's time to ---- go back----"

Qing's mood is a little heavy now, maybe he was infected by those slaves, no matter how far away from the slave area, Qing can always faintly hear the painful and desperate cry-----

Walking in the direction he came, before he knew it, he had left Cermila, and the shadow under his feet had become small, and it was almost noon.

Descending the mountain at a speed that is neither fast nor slow, passing through the green grass plain, not far away is the mouth of the forest, the resting place built by the green house. There's no one anywhere now, and it seems that Qingzao has returned.

"It's finally --- ---"

Leaning on the trunk of a tree tiredly, the pairing experience this morning is a scene that Qing will never forget.

"It's not enough to practice~"

Looking at the clear sky, Qing closed his eyes and recalled everything he saw in the slave market, and bravely faced everything he was unwilling to accept, which was the key to overcoming his fears!

It's metamorphosis! It's growth! It's also a practice! Constantly face the fear of death and grow under the paving of red blood! Until you can face all difficulties and despair without fear! No more fear, no more confusion----

I'm still far from ---~!

Untie the long sword at your waist, put it on the grass beside you, and reach out to loosen the button on your chest, so that you can lie down more comfortably. The slave market put too much pressure on Qing.

Quiet without making a sound, Qing just lay quietly. The mind is full of the bleak figures of the slaves, except for despair, or despair.

will save them! Certain! Thinking like this, Qing remembered Li, who was still working Erin. She is with this dream~ to save the suffering people, she continues to fight for this ideal, covering up her gender and erasing what should have been a green childhood. Giving up everything and living only for her dreams---- she can't save herself from falling into darkness when she saves others. Is it really worth it to give others the light of hope at the cost ---- burying yourself?

Green can't stand in the middle to measure. Qing only knows that people live for their dreams! Even if you have let go or forgotten, haven't you worked hard for it?! It's all worth it! It is an indelible mark! I can't deny her dream, she is willing to give everything for all to see, but pulling her out of the quagmire is just destroying her all, and she can't do it herself. What Qing can do is to always be by her side, witness her dreams with her, and use her own sword to guard her front!

Before you know it, you have fallen into a deep sleep, perhaps because of fatigue, or if you are really tired-----

Time is ticking, time is turning, the breeze rustles across the meadows, the river never stops, and the shade of the trees overhead moves elsewhere.

Qing didn't know how long she slept, but she knew that she slept well and comfortably.

When I opened my eyes, I didn't mean to leave immediately, and I still clutched my green eyelids. With a sigh, the feeling of restlessness did not dissipate from the restless sleep, and the mind was still chaotic and noisy.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes vigorously. It's like venting the irritability in my heart.,Constant,Rubbing his face vigorously.。 Maybe that will make you feel better.

【-----------------】

Qing was rubbing his pitiful face, and a faint noise came from a distance, different from the noisy voice in Qing's heart, which was the unique noise of the crowd.

"It's coming, it's really --- late---"

Qing didn't know how to look at the sun in the sky, and it had just passed for a while. It's really strange, I feel like I've been asleep for a long time, but the time has only passed for about an hour.

Thinking about it, Qing patted her blushing face and stood up. Tidy up your messy clothes, rebutton the button on your chest, and pin the cross sword to her waist with the cross sword that was set aside.

I must not let Egg see his listless appearance! Qing couldn't understand why he was so strong, maybe --- just to keep his friends from worrying about him---

The sound was getting closer and closer, and the footsteps were as neat and light as an occupational disease, the footsteps peculiar to scout troops.

Qing stood quietly and leaned against the tree, not needing to make any unexpected movements to attract attention, just waiting quietly.

"It's just ahead! Around the Three Trees is that gentleman's camp! ”

The man's calm voice came not far away, and Qing suddenly seemed to realize a little, as if he had done something less.

"Okay--- is there really such a person in the --- world? ----Peerless countenance, invincible power---"

"Yes! Yes! He's definitely the strongest guy in the world! Definitely! ”

The calm voice seemed very high, and the voice was full of absolute trust and joy, answering the unfamiliar voice.

It's already quite close, and it's estimated that it can already be done in a 'meeting' situation. Qing opened her eyes and watched them appear.

"Ahh Sorry to keep you waiting! “

Seeing that Qing was already waiting for their arrival here, the man immediately ran to Xiang Qing to apologize, and bent down very politely towards Qing.

"No, I just happened to come back and wanted to rest against the tree. Just about! You've arrived, too! Let's go to the camp and take a rest. “

Qing said, bowing to the dense crowd of hundreds of people behind the man, and stretched out his hand to invite them to his camp to rest.

"Okay! Dear Mr. Knight! “

The mental quality of the man at the head is that of a tall and strong man, who is at odds with his rough mines, and who has a delicate heart. He was the first to come back to his senses from the first meeting.

"Yes."

Qing nodded at him and walked towards the camp next to him. And Egger, who is now perched on a tree next to the camp. Its eyes were staring at Qing tightly, scanning back and forth.

Qing politely brought everyone to the camp, perhaps after a long journey, they scattered the camp together, some ran to the river to drink water, and some just sat down to rest. And Egger just stood there and watched Qing make arrangements, and didn't move a step in place.

Qing walked towards Egger worriedly, his eyes drifting around from time to time, not daring to collide with Egg's fierce eyes.

"Egger, you're tired too, aren't you? Why don't you take a break? You see, there are so many people in the camp now! ~“

"Compared to the excitement, I think I should do my duty!"

"Follow me!"

Egg said, flapping his wings and flying into the dark woods. Qing looked at the darkness, hesitated for a moment, and followed Egg's figure into the jungle.

Following the shadows not far away, Qing walked on the dirt ground, and the trees around him were moving towards the back.

He found out? But is it necessary to exaggerate so much? I'm just in a bad mental state, and I need to be so mysterious, you must bring me to the forest~

It turns out that people always carry some anxiety, uneasiness, excitement, curiosity and fear when facing the unknown. Qing can say that his thoughts are indescribable now.

Egger was flying in front, and Qing had been following behind, and was now nearly a kilometer away from the camp due to. Qing really didn't know why Egger had brought him so far away from the camp, Qing decided not to be so silent anymore, he should ask Egger for clarification!

"Don't talk, follow me!"

"Good, good--------"

Egger actually knew what he was going to do, and he actually made Qing feel shut up before he could speak!

Walking and walking, almost ten kilometers or so from the camp, Iger stopped and stood on a rock.

"Have you met a magician? -----------“
