NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 703 You are like a poet
The moon is at its zenith, and the hundred thousand mountains have fallen into a deep sleep.
Only the occasional howling of wild beasts could be heard.
In the room, Jiu Yue held a big bowl of spicy soup with satisfaction.
There is a lounge chair by the window.
At this moment, a snow-white skeleton was lying on a chair covered with a blanket.
Now she is still the proprietress of Chenji Liquor Shop, and this position has been stamped with the official seal of Jiang You, so she is also considered an employee of the Tingfeng City system.
When Jiu Yue thought of everyone’s envious eyes, he found it a little funny. He never dreamed that he would be able to get a stable job after the apocalypse.
Although she had been released for a few days, she still felt hungry from time to time.
And the habit of late-night snacks has increased.
You have to know that when she was in the Dawn Tower, in order to maintain her figure, she always strived for excellence in food innovation and nutritional matching, and she even had her own dedicated nutritionist.
And now...
Jiu Yue took a big sip of spicy soup and finally suppressed the hunger in her stomach.
Logically speaking, she had suffered from hunger before building the Tower of Dawn, so she shouldn't have become like this just by being starved by Jiang You.
But at that time, I was free and could fill my stomach by eating grass roots or tree bark when I was extremely hungry.
However, there is nothing in the Black Flame Prison.
The fence was made of iron and the ground was slate. Originally there was straw inside, but the day after the young mountain villager reported to Jiang You that she was secretly chewing dry straw, all the straw in the prison was taken away without a single strand left.
Forget about straw, even the northwest wind has nothing to drink.
In prison, she was in a trance and chewed her own arms, partly to confuse Jiang You and partly because she was really too hungry to bear it.
The winner takes it all; the loser takes it all. This is the first sentence the high priest taught everyone.
In the doomsday, if you lose, you lose. There is nothing to be unwilling about.
She couldn't say that she hated Jiang You, especially after learning that she could help her find her brother. Jiu Yue even secretly looked forward to that day.
She touched the hideous, mottled wounds on the back of her hand. The scars were winding and ugly.
It is estimated that these scars will not disappear completely until the next time I die in substitution.
"Ashi, sometimes I think it's pretty good here. Of course, it would be even better if you were alive, and your brother was alive, and everyone was alive."
The bright moonlight fell on the white bones. September turned her head and rested it on the skeleton's knees.
"Ashi, they don't believe that I love you... Do you believe it?"
Clear tears fell from the corners of her eyes, "Well, maybe... you don't believe it either... There is no way to get rid of this feeling, it has just left my brows, but it is still on my mind...
Who would believe it? Yes, sometimes even I don’t believe it…”
"No, I believe it."
A cold voice suddenly broke September's sadness, and she looked for the owner of the voice.
Jiang You jumped down from the roof and landed in front of the window.
"I believe you love him, otherwise why would you kill him instead of others? Every dead ghost is not innocent."
Jiang You said coldly.
September was about to say something.
Then I saw Jiang You frowning and kicking down.
She thought Jiang You was kicking a stone or a bug.
Jiang You, "Why are you guys not sleeping in the middle of the night and squatting against someone else's wall?"
September:"???"
"!!!"
Is there someone squatting outside the window?
It's impossible, how could she not notice it!
Then she saw heads popping up on her windowsill like mushrooms.
"Yes, yes, I believe it!"
A dark mountain man smiled with his face full of teeth.
"I believe it too!"
Several other people said in unison.
“We all believe it!”
There were also a few experimental subjects from the Orc tribe with strange-shaped heads smiling embarrassedly.
Only one leopard-headed man yelled angrily, "Why are you kicking me? There are so many people squatting here, why are you only kicking me! Aaaaaaaah!!!"
He roared in a rage.
Jiang You's ears hurt from the noise, so he dragged out a huge iron lump from the space and smashed it at the yelling guy.
"Bang!"
The lump of iron smashed a deep hole in the ground, and Leopard Head's angry voice could be faintly heard from it.
"Well...you only hit me...you look down on me...cough cough!"
Jiu Yue recognized these people. Those who looked like orcs were experimental subjects who escaped from City No. 9, and a few young men were mountain people from the Longshan tribe.
She took a quick look and saw that there were at least a dozen people.
no……
These people are perverts!
Squatting outside someone's window in the middle of the night to eavesdrop on their conversation!
She was originally filled with sadness, but now she just felt extremely embarrassed, as if someone had read her diary.
A dozen people worked together to lift up a corner of the iron lump, dragged the leopard head out, and ran away without looking back.
The elders of the Longshan tribe might be xenophobic, but these young people quickly made friends with the Orcs.
One of the dark-skinned mountain villagers was dragged by someone and looked back shyly while running.
"Madam, will you recite poetry tomorrow? I'll come again. What you say is so nice to hear, it's like reading a book..."
A female poet who was sad in the middle of the night while holding a bowl of spicy soup...
September,"……"
Ten thousand alpacas were galloping happily through my mind.
She looked at Jiang You and stiffly changed the subject, "What are you doing here? Is there any progress?"
Jiang You nodded, "I have an idea, but I need your cooperation."
Hearing this, Jiu Yue was happy at first, then she thought of something, suppressed her excitement, and asked quickly.
"Jiang You, if you really find my brother, will you hurt her?"
Jiang You shook his head.
September, "You swear!"
Jiang You, "You want to die?"
Jiu Yue's tone weakened a little, "…but I'm worried about what you might do to my brother."
"Judging from the degree of your brother's current distortion, he is probably no different from the monster in the abyss. What can I do with such a being?
It's good enough that it doesn't do anything to me."
"But we need to confirm one thing first."
"What?" September asked.
"We need to enter your fantasy world again."
Jiu Yue didn't understand why they had to enter the illusion again. After all, they had already been there once before. Logically speaking, there wasn't much point in entering it again.
Jiang You said, "We need to confirm one thing first, whether your brother is living in your illusion through the power of the abyss, or whether he has invaded your illusion.
These are two completely different concepts.
If it is the former, he lives in your illusion, and it is impossible to lure him out.
If it is the latter, then it proves that he in the illusion is not real either, and his real body should be in the abyss.
Of course, I hope it’s the latter.”
Red Eyes reminded her that she must confirm whether Jiu Yue’s brother was in the illusion.
Jiu Yue looked at Jiang You hesitantly, "Can you wait for me? I'll finish the soup in the bowl. I can't let it go to waste."
