Zi Rou had been observing Hu Mingxian since he came in and looked around. It was very different from what Hui Xin and Zhang Mingfeng said. This difference did not come from appearance.
Indeed, Hu Mingxian's appearance and black sportswear gave Zirou a very comfortable and clean feeling.
Although it didn't make her want to take the initiative to get close to him, she didn't reject him at all. Even when he looked at her, his eyes were clear and bright, without the slightest hint of lewdness.
Zirou can easily tell this.
When she came into contact with Zhang Haoyu earlier, there was a strong desire for domination in Zhang Haoyu's eyes, and Zhang Haoyu's rotten aura made her very disgusted. There was a sharp contrast between the two.
It was in such a state that Zirou could see the wild charm of Hu Mingxian that shocked the world, which was strongly contradictory to the temperament he displayed.
This feeling of contradiction became even more clear to Zi Rou when Hu Mingxian drank the cup of black tea in one gulp.
Not only Zirou, but also Hui Xin, Zhang Mingfeng, and Cang Lanying did not expect that Hu Mingxian would drink that cup of black tea in one gulp. This cup of tea was no ordinary tea.
"What a waste... what a waste... I wish I could kick this guy to death..." Looking at Hu Mingxian who closed his eyes and said nothing, Zhang Mingfeng scratched his head and ears angrily, wishing he could just kick him and teach this wasteful bastard a lesson.
"Amitabha!" The young monk Huixin was not as direct as Zhang Mingfeng, but after reciting the Buddha's name with regret, he stepped aside and stopped talking.
"What a pity!" Canglan Ying shook his head, returned to his original seat and sat cross-legged without saying a word.
"Sister Zirou, even if this Wuxin Tea is not genuine, it can't be wasted like this. I've been begging you for more than half a year, but you are reluctant to take it out for me to try..." Pointing at Hu Mingxian, Zhang Mingfeng said bitterly: "This How can you bear it when things are so messed up?"
"Everyone has something for everyone..." As she spoke, Zirou raised her eyes and looked at Zhang Mingfeng. When her eyes touched the comics in that guy's hand, she couldn't help but blush, tilted her head, took a deep breath, and said in a cold voice: " Get rid of your dirty things, show up in front of me again, and break your dog legs!"
"I..." Zhang Mingfeng looked down at the comic in his hand. He suddenly didn't dare to speak. He smiled awkwardly and quickly ran to the corner to continue admiring it.
For a moment, the hall seemed extremely quiet. The four little guys on the side also quieted down at the greetings of their respective owners. Heiyun also lay on the carpet and looked at Hu Mingxian quietly.
When Hu Mingxian drank the cup of black tea in one gulp, he didn't feel anything at first. He couldn't taste the taste of this tea even if he drank like a wolf. However, within a few breaths, an endless bitterness seemed to come from his own body. The deepest part of my heart is instantly useful, sweeping through every pore in my body.
It's very painful, so painful that it's unbearable, so painful that you want to go crazy, so painful that it's extremely painful...
In an instant, Hu Mingxian was pulled into a mysterious and mysterious artistic conception, as if falling into a never-ending abyss and bottomless pit. Except for the darkness, it was difficult to distinguish the direction and things.
Suddenly, from the dark abyss, there seemed to be countless grotesque blades suddenly piercing into every part of his body, and maddening pain came from every wound...
Finally, the countless blades disappeared. Before he could relax, a large black iron ball appeared in the darkness and hit him directly on the chest, sending him flying.
Just as he was about to stop, his back was hit hard by a black iron ball. The next moment, an unknown number of such black iron balls appeared, hitting Hu Mingxian like a sandbag...
In the darkness, Hu Mingxian was enduring all kinds of torture every moment. His whole body was so painful that he had long forgotten the pain.
As time passed, a fire arose in Hu Mingxian's heart, and he no longer took beatings blindly. The spiritual sword came out and slashed at the surroundings indiscriminately.
However, no matter how much Hu Mingxian slashed with his sword, he could not stop or resist the secret attack, and could only bear it...
"boom!"
I don’t know how long it took, but Xu finally came to the end. After Hu Mingxian received a hard blow on his back, he hit the dark ground directly. Xu was in too much pain and couldn’t get up for a long time.
Outside, Hu Mingxian's energy stagnated for a moment, and his chest, which had been rising and falling for a long time, stopped moving. Heiyun stood up immediately and was about to pounce, but was stopped by Zirou's hand.
"Miss Zirou!"
"Sister Zirou..."
"Amitabha……"
Cang Lanying, Zhang Mingfeng and Huixin, who also noticed something strange, stood up and looked at Zirou at the same time. Zirou glanced at the three of them with a slight frown on her eyebrows, and finally shook her head and motioned for the three of them to sit down.
However, Heiyun had already prepared a killing stance, bared his teeth and roared, staring at Zirou with a pair of green eyes. If anything happened to Hu Mingxian, Heiyun would hunt Zirou immediately, even if he didn't Even if it is an enemy, it won't care.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Shen's chest finally rose and fell slowly. The four people present and the five little guys all breathed a sigh of relief. In the dark world, Hu Mingxian stood up little by little with difficulty. .
All he could see was still the boundless darkness. Even if he put his hands in front of his eyes, he couldn't see the outline. The pain all over his body made him retain the last bit of consciousness. He didn't know which direction to go when he raised his feet and walked step by step. …
Every time he took a step, a knife or sword would pierce his body, or a ferocious beast would jump out of the darkness and bite a piece of flesh from his body, or a poisonous snake would bite him like lightning. Injecting violent toxins...
However, even though the spiritual sword could only pass through the body, unable to block weapons or kill monsters, Hu Mingxian still responded to every attack with the sword in his hand.
Gradually, his originally upright posture became rickety, like a dying old man stumbling. What remained unchanged was that he was still walking in the direction in front of him...
Just because there was a voice in the unknown distance that kept calling him...
He didn’t know how long he had walked or how far he had walked. He might still be at the same place, but he still didn’t give up. Even though it was very difficult, the knife in his hand still slashed once every step he took...
suddenly
"Hahaha... Hahaha... So that's it... That's it..."
Hu Mingxian stopped and stopped moving forward. He raised his head and laughed heartily. In an instant, the red spiritual sword slashed out with a thousand feet of light, cutting through the boundless darkness and shattering like a broken mirror. Come on.
In reality, Hu Mingxian let out a long breath, turned the white jade teacup in his hand, and placed it on the jade table in front of Zirou with a smile: "Good tea!"
"Damn it, kid, you finally came to your senses. I thought you just burped like that..." Zhang Mingfeng stepped forward and slapped Hu Mingxian hard.
"Amitabha, Donor Hu, you're fine." Hui Xin also breathed a sigh of relief.
Only Cang Lanying did not speak, but looked deeply at Hu Mingxian. He was the first person he saw who dared to drink Wuxin Tea in one gulp without dying.
"Thank you for your concern." Hu Mingxian smiled and nodded to several people.
"Sorry!" Zirou stood up and bowed her head apologetically.
"I am the one who should say sorry, Fairy Qin, you don't have to be like this..." Hu Mingxian smiled awkwardly and said: "I guess no one thought that someone would drink tea like a cow in such an occasion, even if it was just a show. Drink it one sip at a time, not to mention that this is tea made by Fairy Qin herself."
As soon as these words were said, Zhang Mingfeng, Cang Lanying and Hui Xin all twitched their lips in silence. You still know this about feelings...
Looking at Hu Mingxian, Zirou smiled helplessly. She really didn't expect someone like Hu Mingxian to drink tea like this, or in other words, no one had ever drank tea like this in front of her.
This can't be blamed on Hu Mingxian. After five years in the virtual reality world, he has become accustomed to eating meat and drinking water. Sometimes, he will subconsciously become bored like this.
"Sir, please enlighten me!" After reaching out to signal Hu Mingxian to sit down, Zi Rou seemed to have been thinking for a long time before finally asking.
Huixin, Zhang Mingfeng and Cang Lanying also pricked up their ears and waited quietly.
"There is no teaching at all, it's just a superficial understanding." Hu Mingxian smiled and waved his hands, looked at Ziju and said: "Actually, you and I are the same, the path of the heart exists for the person you are doing, no matter how difficult the road ahead is. , nothing can stop us from moving forward.
Just because that person is right in front of you, just because the road under your feet is the road leading to that person, how can you not walk? How dare you stop? "
For a moment, Zirou burst into tears. A thin figure in ragged clothes appeared in her heart, and asked anxiously: "Then why did the young master not walk the rest of the way in the end, but cut it off with a knife?"
"Because people are still there, why bother to see the illusion? What is cut off is not the way forward, nor the obstacles on the road, but a road of protection."
"The path of protection?"
Zirou fell silent, and Huixin and the other three were also lost in thought. Although they had all drank Wuxin Tea, they did not experience it as deeply as Hu Mingxian.
Seeing the three people like this, Hu Mingxian suddenly felt bad and said quickly: "You don't have to be like this. Everyone has their own feelings. You don't have to be so obsessed with my opinion. Just as you have people you want to protect, maybe now you I haven’t found such a person yet, but as long as you are still on this road, you will eventually meet him.”
"Amitabha!"
In the end, Hui Xin smiled helplessly and shook her head. He was a monk, so it was naturally impossible for him to find the one he loved like the other four, so he couldn't follow this path.
"This is really difficult for me..." Zhang Mingfeng thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure it out. Or maybe he figured it out, but couldn't do it. Why did he have so many people he liked, but he didn't even know how to protect them? who.
"It's hard! It's really hard!"
Cang Lanying shook his head. He was focused on the path of the sword. He was asked to love and protect someone, so he might as well spend his time practicing.
"Hey~" Hu Mingxian sighed softly, not wanting to continue on this topic, lest they get deeper into it, and said seriously: "Let's get down to business."
