Seal your heart and love!Little Fairy Girl, she cultivates the path of ruthlessness

Chapter 17 When a fellow villager meets a fellow villager, there are no tears in his eyes
The endless sea.

Dark and dull, bottomless.

It's as thick and sticky as thick ink.

This is the "Dark Sea" unique to the Gaohuang Continent. It is the realm of the dead that occupies one-third of the sea. There are countless "creatures" and undead living underneath. Therefore, special ships are needed to safely cross this sea.

It is very dangerous, but at the same time, there are hidden treasures that are equal to the danger.

Tan Xi and Makinoli stood at the edge of the port, looking out of place among the simple fishermen.She could feel the biting, malicious eyes behind her.Those evil thoughts were concealed, but in fact, the murderous intention had already been revealed. Tan Xi looked back slightly, and the coldness in her eyes was self-evident.

"Is this the sea..."

Makino looked at the sea. It was his first time to see the sea. Unlike the rumors, this sea felt too depressing, and even the air seemed thick and sticky.

"Why is this sea black?"

"It is said that there was a demon god in ancient times who did many evil things and brought harm to all living beings. He set off an unprecedented tsunami in this sea area and swallowed up countless living beings. Perhaps it was the resentment and anger of those living beings that gathered together. Since then, this sea has become It looks like this now.”

"The devil... turns out to be such a powerful existence."

To mortals, immortal cultivators are already immortal-like beings, and they even talk about higher-level gods... Countless monks practice the way to become gods, but after so many years, only a handful of them can truly become gods. number.

There are so many temples and statues of gods on the ground, and no one dares to say that he has seen the real god.

"What now? Where has this demon gone?"

In response to his question, Tan Xi twitched her lips and looked at the sea. Wherever she looked, the silent darkness bubbled up, and then exploded with a pop.

"...Who knows."

Tan Xi has played this otome game for no less than [-] games, and she already knows how many grasses have grown in this world.But after truly experiencing this world personally, there are some things and things that are different from those in the game.

Just like this dark sea——

She clearly remembered that before she played the ending of "Lord of the Demon Realm", this sea was just an ordinary sea.

But it didn't matter, even if it was different from the original world, she had already figured out all the tricks of this world.

Makino was still looking at the sea, his green eyes full of regret.The breeze blew his hair, and his overly clean eyes became the only relaxing color in the humid air. Things that are too beautiful will always attract many unreasonable evils.

A breath appeared behind her, and Tan Xi turned around. At some point, the fisherman who appeared behind him had an unshaven beard, a sallow complexion, and thin skin. His pure black eyes were devoid of any light.

"..." She made a sword move, and the cold wind blew.Makino Li also looked over.

When the man saw them turning back, he retracted his hand and wiped it on the hem of his clothes, smiling sheepishly: "You must be careful, don't fall in."

Makino didn't know what happened, so he replied: "Thank you for the reminder."

After the man left, seeing Tan Xi still staring at him, Mu Yeli asked doubtfully, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Tan Xi shook her head and raised her chin to signal him to leave first, "Let's change places."

When the man was farther away, Tan Xi also followed. However, with a wave of his hand, the sword was released, and the invisible air blade pierced the fisherman's throat in an instant. The man staggered and fell into the sea silently. It quickly dissipated into the dark water.

...

They came to the busiest street, with vendors' wares on both sides of the road.Most of them are ingredients, ores or elixirs that can be found everywhere. Tan Xi is not interested in the things that have reached the upper limit in these backpacks, but Makinoli is always attracted by some strange things.

"What is this?" The man squatted on the roadside and picked up a jade stick-like object from the stall, with a puzzled face. "Why are they all selling this?"

Tan Xi only felt it hurt her eyes and grabbed his collar: "...Hurry up and put it down."

"Hey! I'm just curious!"

Seeing them stopping in front of the stall, the vendor smiled mischievously and said: "This is the most popular jade stone nowadays, and its shape and texture are extremely ergonomic! Especially the one you have on my hands, little brother, this is a warm stone from Lingshan Mountain. , does it feel warm in your hand?"

"It does seem to be..." Makino looked at it carefully for a while, "So what exactly is this?"

"Hey, brother, you are still pretending to be like that... This thing is just for that and so on, isn't it?" The vendor made a gesture, and now Makino completely understood.

"I see..." He mused, half understanding, "But these are for women, right?"

"Brother, if you have other hobbies, you can use it yourself."

Tan Xi couldn't bear it anymore, so she grabbed his collar and started to leave: "If you are so interested, do you want me to buy one for you?"

"Ahem...don't get me wrong, fairy lady, I don't have that kind of hobby!"

"I see you're about to have one."

With her holding the collar, the man could only lean against her and hold her arm pretending to be shy: "It's not impossible if she is a fairy..."

"……abnormal."

She gritted her teeth and jerked her hand away, fearing that it would be contaminated with something unclean.Makino chuckled twice, straightened his clothes and continued to follow her.

They walked a few more steps, and in a quiet corner at the end of the street, squatted a man dressed as a barbarian, with a camel loaded with luggage tied behind to rest.On the stall set up in front of him, there were scattered gold and bronze utensils, ornaments and accessories from Xiqi.

The stall owner seemed to have no intention of shouting. He sat cross-legged on the ground, holding his chin and falling asleep.

Of course, Makino also saw the fellow villager, but he paused on the spot and did not come forward, with a slightly strange expression on his face.

"What, is that someone you know?"

"No, I don't know."

He had no intention of talking to her, and Tan Xi didn't mind her own business and took him directly past the stall.But if they don't take the initiative to talk, others will come to the door on their own, only to hear a loud shout from behind: "Hey! Wait a minute!"

When they turned around, the barbarian stall owner looked a little excited when he saw a fellow countryman with the same dark complexion, and kept waving them over.

"..."

Mu Yeli walked over and made the greeting gesture of their barbarians: "Tashi, what's the matter?" The barbarian stall owner was not too old, he looked to be in his early twenties, and he smiled happily.Do they all like to laugh like this?
"Tashi! Are you also from Xiqi? It's really exciting to see people of the same race so far away! I have been away from Mulehu for several years, and I have met less than ten people of the same race including you. !”

"Speaking of which, it's October now. The Fire Lord Saman sacrifices are about to begin, right? After offering sacrifices for so many years, I don't know what the Fire Lord Saman has blessed us... Every time he kills so many lives, it's no wonder that Xi Qi cannot compare with the prosperity of the Central Plains..." The barbarian stall owner rambled on a lot, not caring at all that he didn't want to talk.But after hearing him mention Fire Lord Saman, Makino looked at him with a strange look.

"It's only April now, and there's still more than half a year before the sacrifice. Are you remembering it wrong?"

"April..." The man was stunned, and his deep purple eyes became hollow for a moment, "Yes, yes...it's still a long, long time before the sacrifice."

"Brother, do you want to take care of my business?" He quickly changed the subject and picked up a gold necklace set with rubies from the stall. "These are the good things I brought from Xiqi. Buy them. How about this Ajia given to you?"

"..." Makino was a little embarrassed. Ever since he was kidnapped, he had no worries at all.It's a bit embarrassing to say it. He relies on Tan Xi for all his expenses now...

"No, no need. Fairy Girl, she has everything..."

"Xian Gu..."

Hearing this title, the barbarian stall owner looked at her with evil intentions in his deep purple eyes. Seeing her dress and temperament, he quickly understood something.

"I understand, I understand. Our Xiqi men are indeed stronger and more durable than the bean sprouts from the Central Plains. We have a future as immortal cultivators!"

"This Ajia... no, she's a fairy. Would you like to give your... male companion a gift from your hometown?"

"..."

The man was looking at them with ambiguous eyes, half-smiling but not smiling, and the frivolous contempt in it was almost revealed - it was directed only at Makinoli.

Although Mu Yeli seemed naive and silly in front of Tan Xi, he came from the desert and had the bloody and savage blood of desert men in his body. Faced with such a provocation, his slightly narrowed eyes flashed with a fierce light. But considering that she couldn't cause trouble to Tan Xi, she just clenched her fists tightly... Tan Xi stepped forward and took the ruby ​​necklace from his hand. She looked at it carefully for a while and nodded: "Yes, not bad."

The stall owner raised his lips: "If that's the case, then——"

"But it's far from the fire beads I gave him." What Tan Xi hates the most is someone stepping on her head and shitting. As the saying goes, it depends on the owner to beat a dog. This person bullied this guy in front of her. It was simply Don't take her seriously!She grabbed Mu Yeli's collar and asked him to lean over. Then with a click, she fastened a gold necklace that exuded a strong fire element around his neck.

Just as she expected, this kind of exaggerated, gorgeous and gorgeous jewelry is really suitable for a passionate person like him.

"This is the only treasure in the world, and it is just right for you. As for these rubbish..." She casually threw the ruby ​​necklace back in her hand, and gave it a very aggressive cold look, "Just treat it as yours. Go for the treasure at the bottom of the box.”

"...Xian, Xiangu." Makino was caught off guard by this series of attacks. His cheeks were a little red, but fortunately his skin color was so dark that he couldn't see it. "Well, I..." Xiangu said that he was the only treasure in the world... What should I do? My heart is beating so fast...

Tan Xi gave him a "shut up" look.

The barbarian stall owner looked at them blankly, not knowing what he saw was funny. He burst out laughing, and it became more and more intense. He couldn't stop holding his belly.

"Ah...I know. So you are also Ram...Hahaha, you are also Ram who escaped from them!"

He burst into tears with laughter, and while wiping away, he opened his collar. On the same dark skin, the golden lines were particularly conspicuous.

...

What is Ram?
Although Tan Xi knew the world well, she couldn't completely remember the language and miscellaneous subplots.What they speak is Hu dialect, or is it a unique saying in Hu dialect.When Mu Yeli saw that he also had gold tattoos on his body, he pulled her away from there as if running away.

But now, he has regained his former ease and ease, holding the sesame seed cakes she bought and chewing them with relish.

Curiosity is curiosity, but Tan Xi is not a person who is driven by curiosity, and she adheres to the life philosophy that doing more is worse than doing less. She didn't ask anything, and held her chin with one hand in a daze——

Perhaps because her expression was too deep, Makino misunderstood that she was still paying attention to what had just happened, so she gnawed the biscuits slower and slower, and finally stopped.

"Does Fairy Lady want to know what Ram means?"

Makino said directly without mincing words, staring straight at him with green eyes.

Tan Xi felt that he didn't want to say it, so she shook her head: "You don't have to say it if you don't want to say it, I don't care."

He knew that Fairy Girl would say that, and he also knew that she had such a personality that she didn't care about anything other than herself.

But can this matter be hidden for a lifetime?They are already traveling partners, and to be fair, they should be honest with each other, not to mention that Fairy Girl is so kind to him...

Tell me, although it feels a little uncomfortable, but if you tell the Fairy Queen, maybe——

"stop."

He opened his mouth halfway when he was told to stop. Tan Xi frowned, with disgust on his face: "I told you I don't want to hear it, and I don't care. You don't have to tell me your past."

ah?Why is this still happening?Mu Yeli was stunned: "But..."

Tan Xi waved her hands with a cold expression: "The past was before, and the present is now. Knowing your past will not do me any good, and will only add unnecessary emotions to you. Since it will make you sad, there is no need to do it again. If you think of it, just forget it."

"By the time you finish saying that, the sesame cakes will become unpalatable, and it will be even more shameful to waste food. Eat quickly and go back after eating."

Is this the gentleness that belongs only to her...the fairy aunt?Makino lowered his eyes, and a wave of warmth flowed from his heart to his internal organs. The scorching temperature in his chest and the scattered red light burned him to the bone. He saw the necklace she put on with her own hands, and the fiery red beads were shining brightly. It was as if there was a real flame burning in the center.

"By the way, I want to return this necklace to you."

He wanted to take it off, but was stopped. Tan Xi didn't care much. The Fire Spirit Pearl was indeed rare, but she couldn't use it, and it got moldy even if she kept it in her backpack.

"No need, just wear it."

"...Thank you." He did not shirk and thanked him in a low voice.He is very poor now and has nothing, but in the future...he will definitely give her the most precious...the most unique gift.

After squatting on the street and finishing the sesame seed cakes, it was almost time and the old man should have woken up.They were about to go back to the inn. Halfway through, Mako Yeli remembered the business and asked, "Xiangu, aren't we going to help Aunt Ma find her son? It should be at this ferry, right?"

The woman walking in front calmly shook her head and said, "No need to look for it."

"why?"

"He will come to us."

Makinoli didn't understand what this meant.
