Click, click.
The clock on the wall ticked slowly.
Xiao Baihong was sitting on the bench outside the obstetrics and gynecology clinic, crossing her legs and twiddling her fingers in boredom.
Following his movements, the fountain at the entrance of the hospital was blown back and forth by the wind, spreading far away towards a row of potted plants in the school wall across the street.
School is already on holiday.
These children's potted plants have not been taken care of and are about to die.
The water from the fountain slowly poured down, soaking them thoroughly and bringing them back to life again.
"It's so boring."
Xiao Baihong yawned and said to herself.
Wu Xiaode summoned himself to this era before and asked him to take Shen Feixue away to avoid being affected by the battle between him and the robbery demon.
So he took Shen Feixue to the hospital.
——I don’t know when is the best time to go back.
Xiao Baihong was thinking when she suddenly found that a voice in her ear disappeared.
He was startled and looked up, only to see that the clock hanging on the wall had stopped moving.
The "click" sound of the clock disappeared.
The waiting room fell silent.
Xiao Baihong looked back casually.
——It turned out that it was just a broken clock, but I seemed to be shocked.
I was shocked...
He suddenly felt something was wrong and immediately stood up and looked around.
I saw the nurses and patients walking in the corridor keeping their steps but motionless.
He looked out the window and saw the fountain's water stagnating in the air, the cars speeding on the street standing still, the pedestrians on the road and the birds in the sky all maintaining their original postures.
The whole world fell into deathly silence.
Xiao Baihong's expression gradually became serious and she murmured in a low voice:
"To make such a big noise... I don't know if I won or not..."
suddenly.
A voice sounded from the wall:
"Win? He can keep sparring with the Demon Tribulation until now and still not lose, which is a very remarkable achievement."
"who?"
Xiao Baihong raised her eyebrows and looked towards the wall.
I saw a small figure appearing on the stopped clock.
——But it was a little girl wearing a green skirt.
The little girl was about the size of a thumb, had pointed ears, wore long boots, and held a short staff in her hand.
"Hello, Xiao Baihong, I dare say that as an individual of the human race, you have never dealt with us, but now the situation is urgent and we must meet."
The little girl said quickly.
Xiao Baihong was stunned and lost her voice: "Aliens?"
The little girl suddenly had a dark look on her face, shook her head and said:
"I am Kris, the tree spirit, a loyal ally of Wu Xiaode, an attendant of the Ningshen Division in the inner world, a protector of the Chaos Tree, a scholar of abyssal magic, and a fashionable goblin incarnation."
After speaking, he bent down slightly and saluted.
As soon as Xiao Baihong heard the words Wu Xiaode, she knew something about it, but after all, it was the first time she saw this kind of existence, so she couldn't help but ask:
"How can I trust you?"
Kris waved her short stick casually, and numerous phantoms suddenly appeared in the void.
All I saw above were scenes of Wu Xiaode and Chris getting along. It was obvious at a glance that they were old acquaintances.
"But... these may also be fake." Xiao Baihong shrugged.
"Time is not on our side. I don't have much time to convince you. You don't have to believe me. You just have to make a choice."
Dryad Kris said, tapping the white wall with the short staff in her hand.
Two doors suddenly appeared on the wall.
A red door and a blue door.
"Make your choice, Xiao Baihong."
Dryad Kris said.
"This world has been classified as a stagnant parallel world. It will disappear soon, and the people here will jump directly back to the changed world line."
"Some people will have memory bias, and some people will remember things that have already happened, but such people are only a handful."
"Everyone will be back to about where they were this morning."
"Everything will start again."
"This is because the monster that created the parallel world is having a battle with Wu Xiaode this morning."
Xiao Baihong was inexplicably shocked.
A battle that makes time go backwards, and the world and all sentient beings return to a certain moment in the past and start over.
All this happened quietly——
Ordinary people are not even qualified to notice it.
Xiao Baihong asked in a deep voice:
"So, what do these two doors mean?"
Chrissy flew into the air, pointed at the two doors with her short staff and said:
"Enter the blue door and you will return directly to the future era. You don't have to worry about anything here anymore."
"What about red?" Xiao Baihong asked.
——If the other party is really so capable and it only takes a minute to kill me, why would he lie to me?
"I need someone to take me in to find Xiao Wu, and it can't be a stranger who appears out of nowhere. It just so happens that you appear at that time," Chris said.
"What are you looking for him for?" Xiao Baihong asked.
Chris' expression became serious and she said seriously: "You really need to know this."
"After the immeasurable catastrophe was dispersed by time, the robbers took away the body of time in order to prevent such a thing from happening again."
"Now the opportunity has come -"
"——Xiao Wu is with the caretaker of the corpse, and it's all on Shen Xiujun!"
When Chris said this, her cheeks turned red with excitement:
"This means that we finally have a chance to take back time."
"Is this important?" Xiao Baihong asked.
"Of course! Otherwise, the robbery demons are running around in the timeline and can summon each other. There is no way to defeat them!"
Chrissy said.
Xiao Baihong nodded silently.
When the other party talked about Shen Xiujun, he started to believe him.
After all, not many people know Shen Xiujun’s true identity.
"Of course I want to choose the red door - let's go and see what Xiao Wu has done to the situation."
Xiao Baihong grinned.
"Sure enough, he is the partner he chose - well, you have to remember one thing in advance." Chris said.
"What?"
"In the bar, Wu Xiaode is actually played by Zhao Junyu. Shen Xiujun has a Breeding Demon Lord, a Parasitic Demon of Time Corpse, and the remaining one is Xiao Wu."
"...It's so complicated."
"After you pass, communicate with me telepathically - let's go!"
The red door opened with a bang.
Chris fell into Xiao Baihong's long hair and hid in it.
Xiao Baihong straightened her clothes and walked into the door.
The world is spinning.
A moment.
He found himself back in the town of Sarre.
It's back to morning.
From the bar, Shen Xiujun's voice was as fast and urgent as singing rap:
"Do you like girls like me?"
"Brother Xiao Wu, you will definitely say you like me, because you can't do anything except licking, right?"
"Yo~ Brother Xiaowu, I smoke, drink, perm my hair, get tattoos, play cards, fight, and go to the sea, but I know I am a good girl, right?"
"Brother Xiaowu, next time I go to play with my boyfriend, do you want to come with me?"
"yo~yo~"
"Brother Xiao Wu, I want to have a child with you, because I don't have a child with your skin color yet."
"Say now that you like me, okay?"
Xiao Baihong stood at the door of the bar in a daze.
certainly.
Those "yo"s were added silently in his mind.
But this familiar speaking style and taste, one smells it of Wu Xiaode.
"I'm really in the same body as that devil..."
Xiao Baihong thought silently in her heart.
He rubbed his hands and was about to push the door in when he suddenly remembered something and sent a telepathic message to Chris who was hiding in her hair:
"Chris, what are we going to do later?"
Chris sent a message: "Brother Xiaohong, that monster and Wu Xiaode are afraid of each other, and they don't dare to parasitize each other. They are currently in a stalemate."
"I will use an ancient magic to borrow Wu Xiaode's power."
"In this way, when your body comes into contact with Shen Xiujun's body, you can immediately replace Wu Xiaode."
"You will temporarily take his place in Shen Xiujun's body and deal with the tribulation demon."
"What about him?" Xiao Baihong couldn't help but ask.
"The moment you take his place, his soul will enter your body, which means you two have swapped places -"
Chrissy took a deep breath and said, "The rest will be left to us, the goblin clan!"
Xiao Baihong listened carefully and stood still.
Chrissy added:
"This matter is indeed very dangerous. If you are not careful, you will be in catastrophe. If you really regret it - you can actually hide aside."
Xiao Baihong shook her head and said: "I just feel like I have something to say to you."
"What?"
"Don't call me Xiaohong from now on. I'm Xiao Baihong from the S-level club."
He put on his wide-brimmed hat, conjured up a large bouquet of roses, and reached out to knock on the door.
Tuk-tuk-tuk——
"Who is it?" Shen Xiujun's voice sounded from the bar.
"Remember, that Wu Xiaode is already Zhao Junyu." Kris reminded.
Xiao Baihong nodded slightly and said in a lazy tone:
"It's me."
The door opens.
He saw Shen Xiujun looking towards him in the bar.
"Eh? Xiao Baihong, Xiao Wu said you wouldn't come for a while, why are you here again?"
Shen Feixue said in surprise.
She also came down from upstairs.
——When time changed, she also returned to this moment as an ordinary person.
"My job got canceled, my flight was cancelled, and my lover married a minotaur, so I came back to this town to lick my wounds - here are the flowers for you, and the other one for Xiujun."
Xiao Baihong said in a cynical tone.
Shen Xiujun looked at Xiao Baihong and noticed that everything was as usual, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
"It's okay. At this moment, this person is indeed here."
The Way of Raising the Demon Lord.
"I know, regardless of this garbage, now we have to deal with Wu Xiaode first." The parasite of the Corpse of Time said.
"Which technique do you want to use against me? Tell me." Wu Xiaode said.
"Stop being arrogant, time is in my hands, I will definitely find a way to deal with you." The monster said with murderous intent.
Xiao Baihong suddenly lifted the rose flower on the table and handed it to Shen Xiujun.
"To you, beautiful sister Xiujun."
he said with a smile.
"Thanks!"
Shen Xiujun took the bouquet.
Xiao Baihong's fingers gently touched her fingertips.
A moment.
Chris, who was hiding in his hair, shouted in a low voice: "Balahu, Balahu, little fairy and demon, look at me hiding the truth!"
A wave of the short staff——
Xiao Baihong's child's hole suddenly widened, and then quickly retracted.
A line of small words in ice crystals popped up on the Book of the Dead:
"Fairy Kris borrowed your 'Sleepless City', activated 'Replacement', and at the same time stabilized your soul with magic!"
"Notice!"
"You have now been 'replaced' in Xiao Baihong's body. Xiao Baihong's soul has 'replaced' you and entered Shen Xiujun's body."
"Please exercise caution."
All the small words flashed through Wu Xiaode's mind and disappeared.
"Eh? What's wrong with you?"
Shen Xiujun noticed Xiao Baihong's strangeness and asked keenly.
She exuded a faint murderous intent.
Xiao Baihong stretched out her hand to support the brim of her hat, with a smile on her face and said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, I accidentally touched your hand just now, and I had a call."
——Now he is Wu Xiaode.
"A call? Just forget it. After all, you are far worse than brother Xiao Wu." Shen Xiujun opened her big eyes and said in a beautiful tone.
What was the other party's reaction just now?
Are you really captivated by the beauty of this body?
...This person's strength is so rubbish, there's actually nothing to care about.
How about checking it out?
The two demons were thinking about it when they suddenly saw the door leading to the backyard open with a "Peng" sound.
Wu Xiaode walked in carrying two bottles of drinks.
"Would you like to drink this?"
he asked with a smile.
The two demons immediately put aside the matter about that garbage and looked at Wu Xiaode with a smile.
"Brother Xiao Wu."
"Huh? What's wrong?" Wu Xiaode - or Zhao Junyu asked.
Shen Xiujun said:
"you--"
Her tone suddenly changed and she suddenly raised her voice:
"Will you kill people with me?"
Wu Xiaode was stunned.
Xiao Baihong, who was standing aside, breathed a sigh of relief.
Lao Xiao can do it.
Facing two demons, he still dared to go crazy.
So--
What do you want to do next?
Xiao Baihong—or Wu Xiaode had some doubts in her heart.
At this moment.
The goblin's urging sounded in his heart:
"Quick, let's get out of here and avoid all of them."
"——Xiao Wu, you have the soul of the parasite in you. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Let's go steal the body of time back!"
