When Tang Yuanyuan regained consciousness and opened her eyes, she was doing free fall in the air.
Not long ago, when she stepped into the black hole leading to the underworld, she suddenly felt dizzy for no apparent reason, and then a strange and bizarre picture flashed through her mind.
Then a slightly stinging headache hit her, and she briefly lost her perception and consciousness. She only felt that her mind was blurry, and she even lost her perception of time.
When she woke up again, she felt the huge air flow blowing towards her.
In addition to the updraft that pressed against her and made her whole body hurt, what she then perceived was the light source that suddenly appeared again after spending a long period of darkness.
Then she finally came back to her senses, and when she tried to open her eyes and saw the small and distant bright town below, the floating feeling of panic suddenly came up.
Damn it! ! Why is the way I entered the underworld so bizarre! ! ! Is your hole opened in the air? !
Tang Yuanyuan was falling in the air and broke out in cold sweat. She instinctively turned around and tried to find a figure in the air to ask him what was going on. However, after looking around, she suddenly realized that No. 4 was not beside her.
She was the only one who fell in this sky where there was nothing but darkness.
After realizing this fact, she felt even colder in her heart. Before she had time to think about what happened, she already began to wonder if she had been deceived into a path of no return.
If she had known that doing this favor would be such a painful process, she would definitely not agree to No. 4's request... It would be better to have a tug-of-war with him in the human world, maybe there is still a way to survive...
Such pessimistic thoughts were swirling in her mind when she suddenly turned her head again and saw a red rope that suddenly began to appear on her wrist. The red rope tied to her wrist was pulling an extremely long... The red line extends towards the town below.
This red rope is the fate between myself and him...
Tang Yuanyuan suddenly recalled what No. 4 had said. His eyes flashed along the red line extending downward, and he couldn't help but start counting the person on the other end of the red line again.
It turns out that he has arrived in the underworld first... How could he abandon his fellow collaborators so ruthlessly! ? His price is still plummeting in the air, his life or death is uncertain! ! asshole! !
Tang Yuanyuan didn't know if this so-called "underworld" followed the laws of physics that she was familiar with, but she knew that if she kept her human body, she would definitely fall into a bloody mess if she fell in such a straight line.
Then, with a thread holding his wrist and knowing her name, he can chew her until there is nothing left... Tsk, tsk, maybe it's just an excuse to ask for her help, he just wants to drag her to the underworld to eat her. , she has nowhere to escape here...
These thoughts kept popping up in her mind, and she couldn't help but feel that the more she thought about it, the more pessimistic she became. She tried to turn her body in the air several times to find a way to save herself, but she struggled several times to no avail because she was not strong enough to resist the terrible wind and move freely.
She doesn't want her life to end with her being smashed into a meat pie...
And just as she was thinking wildly, the distance between her and the ground was getting closer and closer. The originally small town became larger and larger in her field of vision. The only spark-like city light in this vast darkness fell into it. Her eyes could not warm her cold heart.
Do you really want to be thrown to death like this?
Tang Yuanyuan thought bitterly in her heart, and tried to find a landing point in the town called Hell without any hope. Unfortunately, most of what she saw were sharp high-rise buildings and dangerous-looking bricks. watt...
She glanced around to no avail, and felt a little sad. Just when she realized that she had fallen and was about to land, she suddenly felt that her inspiration was slightly touched. She instinctively raised her head again, a little surprised. looked in one direction.
In the distance in that direction stood a tower high into the endless darkness. For some reason, she felt a subtle familiar aura from that tower for a moment.
The breath and feeling disappeared so quickly that she thought it was an illusion caused by her critical moment.
Of course, at this time, Tang Yuanyuan had no time to reflect on whether it was an illusion, because when her surprised gaze retracted from a distance and landed vertically on the ground again, she realized that she would fall completely in just a few seconds. Into meatloaf.
Just when she was about to close her eyes in a tragic manner, Tang Yuanyuan suddenly saw No. 4 on the ground closest to her, standing not far from where she estimated her whereabouts. She felt a little chilly in her heart. Could it be that her guess was real?
Seeing that he was about to hit the ground, Tang Yuanyuan finally closed his eyes out of fear.
Haha...I don’t know if my meat tastes good when eaten raw...
Tang Yuanyuan originally thought that these would be the last words she thought about, but the moment she closed her eyes and prepared herself to become a meat pie, she unexpectedly found that she seemed to have fallen into the arms of someone.
There was no instant pain of shattering her bones, nor was there the instant touch of the cold ground. The other party caught her falling body steadily, and even perfectly buffered the huge impact that should have been caused by the fall. The embrace was not only stable and strong, but also It was unexpectedly warm.
She curled up in that embrace and was in a trance for a while, then she came to her senses and heard a familiar voice close at hand.
"...Tang Yuanyuan, it's true that you fell from such a distance and could actually grit your teeth without calling for help. Do you want to be thrown to death?"
Tang Yuanyuan raised his eyes when he heard the sound, and his eyes met those red eyes that were a bit angry.
She felt confused and didn't know where the anger of the person in front of her came from, so she frowned and asked:
"Isn't it because you left me alone behind that caused this situation?"
She blinked her eyes, and some aggrieved anger welled up in her heart: "Besides, what's the use of me yelling from the sky? Am I ostentatiously announcing that I, a living outsider, have arrived in the underworld?"
Hearing this, No. 4 looked into her eyes and suddenly stopped what he wanted to say, but his eyebrows inevitably wrinkled. He was silent for a moment before speaking again:
"It's not that I meant to leave you alone."
He said for a moment, hugged her and suddenly looked up at the sky above where she had fallen.
"By the time I passed through the entrance, there was no trace of you. According to common sense, you shouldn't have fallen from the sky."
Tang Yuanyuan was stunned when he heard what he said, and suddenly realized something, and asked in surprise: "Wait, you mean that the hole you opened does not lead to the air at all? Then why did I enter the underworld from there?"
But he was still staring at the sky above where she came from, without answering her question. After being silent for a moment, he suddenly withdrew his gaze, looked at her again, and then whispered in her ear:
"...The human body is very fragile and can die easily...You have to be careful..."
Does this count as caring about yourself?
Hearing his sigh, most of the original grievance and anger in Tang Yuanyuan's heart suddenly disappeared.
Because apart from that sentence, she accidentally caught a hint of loneliness in his eyes. The person in front of her seemed to remember something in the past that would make him fall into silence for a moment.
Perhaps due to overflowing sympathy, Tang Yuanyuan felt a little sad when she saw the familiar lonely eyes. She was about to ask something, but was interrupted again by No. 4:
"How about it? Isn't it exciting to experience free bungee jumping? Little glutinous rice balls?"
He suddenly raised his lips and smiled at her, putting on a slightly playful look, and the emotion in his eyes was swept away at some point.
Little glutinous rice balls? !
Tang Yuanyuan's face turned half dark when she heard this, and she felt goosebumps on her body. It was the first time she heard someone call her such a disgusting name.
I can’t believe that this guy has such bad taste! !
Most of the heartache that originally surged in my heart for him disappeared in an instant. Why waste sympathy on such a guy? Tang Yuanyuan suddenly came to his senses and she was still being held by him, and a subtle sense of embarrassment suddenly arose in her heart.
She felt that if she stayed in front of this man for a while longer, she would definitely get more goosebumps...
So Tang Yuanyuan coughed twice and suddenly said:
"Um...thank you for catching me. Anyway...you can put me down now."
As she said that, she moved slightly to prepare to sit up from his arms, but before she could adjust herself, she suddenly heard a sneer ringing in her ears.
"OK."
The next second, she suddenly realized that her vision was spinning again. Before she could find a new fulcrum, her body lost its support due to the sudden turn of the other party. Then she felt that the other party suddenly let go, and her body suddenly became weightless.
Tang Yuanyuan fell firmly to the ground, and she almost grinned in pain.
This fall almost knocked her soul out, and she seemed to hear the illusory sound of bones cracking in a daze.
Now she really realized how merciless the guy in front of her was.
"you!!"
Tang Yuanyuan took a breath of cold air on the ground and raised his eyes when he came to his senses. He greeted his eighteen generations of ancestors cordially in his heart. Just as he was about to get angry and was about to say something to No. 4, he suddenly saw The other person seemed to be holding something in his hand.
No. 4 snorted and raised his hand to tighten his fingers, and then the illusory shadow in his hand gradually appeared.
It was an elongated, misshapen ghost.
Then No. 4 pinched the struggling and twisting blue-white ghost and sneered again, and taunted:
"You have no ability but you are very brave. How dare you touch my people?"
Tang Yuanyuan's eyebrows raised again, feeling that this scene seemed familiar.
How come I'm yours again?
