Valkyrie Growth Observation Diary

Chapter 126 Farewell
It wasn't until the Li brothers and sisters arrived in an ambulance to start emergency rescue of Lin Zuzu that the special operations team from the 14th district arrived belatedly to deal with the follow-up matters.

After finishing that inexplicable sentence, the Grim Reaper disappeared. This was the first time Lin Zuzu felt the hatefulness of the Riddler.

After breaking away from the unique space created by the spirit, the endless pain and the dizziness brought by the analgesic pump continued to erode her will.

Lin Zuzu was bandaged all over his body, including the entire head, leaving only the nasal cavity for the hose connected to the ventilator.She lay motionless on her back on the hospital bed, silently as if she had passed away, only the relatively stable broken line on the bedside ECG monitor showed that she was temporarily alive.

Can't see, can't hear, can't speak...

She seemed to be locked in a prison called flesh.

Lin Zuzu's proud recovery ability failed.

As if she had exhausted all her strength, after her body recovered to the point where she could just survive, no matter in the rescue operation or in the coma after the operation, the healing ability that was different from ordinary people did not appear again, at least in the In the very slow and weak state, her fighting spirit disappeared together.

To put it simply, Lin Zuzu became no different from ordinary people, and this was only because she was hit by a thunder.

For five days, she stayed in this maddening darkness for five full days.

Even though she was accompanied by Nuo, this loss of control over her body terrified her, because she hadn't recovered even a tiny bit of grudge.

She panicked.

If she can no longer pick up a knife to fight, the meaning of her life...will it disappear again?
In order not to think about these things, she kept recalling the despair when her mother was killed, the anger at being teased by Elise, the joy of regaining a new life, and... her worries about Bai Jiu.

It wasn't until the seventh day that Lin Zuzu's five senses barely recovered, and what followed was the bad news that she didn't want to hear.

In the report of the 14th team, only one seriously injured Lin Zuzu and half of the charred shackles were found at the scene, so it is judged that the fox demon Bai Jiu was completely destroyed in the catastrophe, and no ashes were left behind.

In addition, the space ring in Lin Zuzu's pocket was also destroyed in the disaster, as if to erase all traces of Bai Jiu's existence.

In the hospital ward of Team 14, Yi Tingxie changed shifts and asked Li Qin to rest. He had never seen such a weak girl.

"How could you get involved with an unregistered A-level fox demon?" How many months have you lived together without telling the team?

Lin Zuzu didn't answer, she turned her head slightly to the side away from the man to show that she didn't want to say more.

"I'm not blaming you, it's just..." Yi Tingxie explained.

"Master...I want...to be alone...for a while." Lin Zuzu spoke with difficulty, her voice hoarse and dry.

Yi Tingxie sighed, and when he walked out of the ward, the girl's sobs came from behind him.

For some reason, he felt a little irritable, and an unknown emotion rose up in his heart. He hesitated for a while, and then walked quickly back to the hospital bed.

"Lin Zuzu, we are all here, as long as you want, we will always be here." Yi Tingxie wondered how he could say such words.

"it is good."

The girl tilted her head further, and answered vaguely, tears soaked the gauze covering her eyes.

***
In the lush forest, there is a pool of spring water that reflects the sky like the blue eyes of the earth, in which there is no fish, and a white bead sinks at the bottom of the pool.This is a treasure land with a particularly strong elemental atmosphere, which is extremely suitable for people with spiritual abilities to cultivate here.

On a natural stone bench next to the spring, a beautiful woman is taking a nap.Wearing an ancient oriental purple costume with the same color of graceful makeup, she feels majestic.

"Master, how long have I been asleep?"

A voice came from above the empty pool, and the woman's beautiful eyes slightly opened, revealing reddish-brown vertical pupils.

"It's not too long, maybe seven days." She spoke calmly, but her tone changed in the next sentence. "Although the physical body is destroyed, you can do it, you can actually withstand the thunder."

A nearly transparent figure distorts the air a little. If you carefully discern the outline, you will find that it is the humanoid real body of the fox demon Bai Jiu.

Under the last thunderstorm, amidst the severe pain, Bai Jiu somehow regained the mental power to gather the fox fire.Therefore, he resolutely abandoned his seriously injured body and tried his best to protect his demon core. Before the special operations team arrived, his master Zi Chan rushed to take him away and placed him in this paradise.

"Master, why did you come to the human world early?"

According to the plan, Zi Chan should come to the human world to join Bai Jiu in eight years, and help him through the catastrophe as much as possible.If it fails, then bring this news back to the demon world.

"It's not because of Bai Heng's stupidity...your father was injured." Zichan was a little uneasy when she mentioned this name, but she was in front of his son anyway, so she changed her words.

Naturally, Bai Jiu knew his master's personality, and asked, "What did Mrs. Hua do? "

Zichan looked serious, expressing her acquiescence.

The "Bai" family has been able to serve as the patriarch of the Fox Clan continuously, and has a certain right to speak in the elders' pavilion of the Yao Clan, all thanks to the secret technique "Fox Hiding".

Of course, this was before Bai Heng shared the secret technique with other clans in the clan.

I have to say that Bai Heng is really a great monster. He wants the fox clan to be strong, and he also wants the whole monster clan to be strong.But this selflessness is not only exchanged for love and gratitude, but also wolfish ambitions that are just around the corner and plotting evil.

The "Hua" clan led by Hua Guansheng is one of them. After he mastered "Fox Yin", he united with other clans to strongly oppose Bai Heng's sharing of the secret technique with other monster clans.

Bai Heng didn't want to fight among himself, but he still insisted on going his own way, and even sent his only son to the human world to escape disaster.

Bai Jiu has never understood why after his mother passed away, his father, who was obviously in pain, did not choose to go with his mother easily, but instead lived in pain with a heavy commitment.

He remembered what the girl had said, and suddenly understood, because it was his mother's wish—a naive but noble wish of "equality and harmony".

Therefore, abandoning the ideal of mother protecting with life, leaving behind the immature son and the family members who need to be protected, the pain caused by such selfish love is even more unbearable for father?

"After you came to the human world, the "Hua" clan produced a genius who is said to be once in a thousand years. He is good at using fox fire. After less than a hundred years of cultivation, he has a second tail. They use this to question you as the next patriarch. Qualifications, after all..." Zichan hesitated and did not continue.

"After all, the trash Bai Jiu is a softie who can only use illusion." The incorporeal Bai Jiu chuckled and took it naturally.

"but……"

With a thought of Bai Jiu, a blue flame appeared out of thin air.

"This is?" Zichan was taken aback, she had seen such a color of foxfire when she was young.

"Well, another kind of mind fire and spiritual flame that I learned during the catastrophe."

White fox fire burns all entities, and blue fox fire burns spiritual entities.

Not only that, five fox tails faintly appeared behind him.

In human game terms - he skipped a level.

"Ha, haha, the sons of the "Hua" family..." Seeing this, Zichan couldn't control her expression and burst out laughing.

"By the way, Master, she..." Bai Jiu asked hesitantly.

Zichan naturally knew who he was referring to. After all, among the ruins, it was impossible for her not to notice a human being seriously injured by Tianlei.

"It is indeed a courageous human being who is willing to fight "Heaven" for you. "Zi Chan said, secretly glanced at Bai Jiu.

"Master, I... when are we going back?" Bai Jiu looked around and asked him.

"Don't tell her you're alive? She's crying very hard."

Ziyue spread out her palms to reveal a ball of light, which recorded the scene of the girl dying, rescuing and waking up, which was what she asked the nearby little demon to do after Bai Jiu's condition stabilized.

The ball of light flew in front of Bai Jiu, he stretched out his hand and hesitated for a long time, until finally he didn't touch the scene that would shake him.

He didn't have the confidence that after watching such a scene, he could leave without nostalgia, not to mention that what he was going to do next was very difficult and extremely dangerous, and he might really lose his life.

After all, I have already said all the farewell words.

So let her be sad for me just this once.

but……

This is obviously what I want most, but I can't be happy anyway.

Bai Jiu felt some kind of pain pervading his spiritual body, making it impossible for him to maintain this state.

"Master, I will rest for a while."

Bai Jiu's consciousness retracted into the demon core to cultivate, and he fell into a peaceful sleep under the interweaving of fatigue and pain.

Zichan took back the light ball and decided to keep it for him temporarily.At this time, she noticed a strange object not far away, which seemed out of place with the natural scene here.

Zichan lightly waved her hand and placed the object in front of her eyes, carefully examining the half of the scorched shackles.

This is really an exquisite instrument.This is a container that can store a certain amount of spiritual power or battle energy, and it is very suitable for helping the monster race overcome the catastrophe.

In the bombardment of the sky thunder, when the power is exhausted, it can provide the monster race with supplies like timely rain.The most important thing is that it can protect the demon core, and it happens that Bai Jiu is good at illusion and other spiritual magic, and can attach the complete consciousness to the demon core.

The person who built this thing really had a heart, but it was a pity that it was completely destroyed.

Zichan waved again, and the shackles dissipated into powder and disappeared into the air.

***
In another property of the young rich man, Ye Cangyuan is reporting the latest information about Bai Jiu to Xuan Ye.

"Mr. Bai was rescued by his fellow clan and saved his life."

"Really?! It's really great!" Xuan Ye excitedly wanted to get up from the comfortable recliner, but failed because of his soft body, and there were still wet tears on his face.

"According to the information provider's speculation, Mr. Bai will return to the demon world to repair his body in a few days."

Xuan Ye's expression darkened, he nodded and did not speak again.The lifespan of the demon is so long, don't be afraid that you will never see each other again.

"In addition, there are more than a dozen interviews with the media..."

"All invitations are rejected." Xuan Ye interrupted Ye Cangyuan, and then added, "Except for the insurance company."

Xuan Ye's proud collection cannot be said to have suffered heavy losses, it can only be said to have been destroyed.

But he took precautions and invested generous insurance for every precious collection.

Maybe, after the mansion and collections were destroyed by the thunder, Xuan Ye's worth would double again.

Of course, the premise is that the insurance company does not go bankrupt.

"After all, it's a transvestite..." Xuan Ye sighed and leaned back in the chair.

"As far as I know, the demon clan has a secret technique that can transform humans into demons, thereby gaining an extremely long lifespan."

"How could I not know?" Xuan Ye seemed to be talking to himself, "Grandpa just gave up this opportunity back then, not to mention..." I am not the object that the teacher will use this precious opportunity.

Nothing more...

After a long silence, Xuan Ye suddenly said, "Ye Cangyuan, you can go too."

"Yes."

Ye Cangyuan bowed slightly to Xuan Ye. After living as a deacon for more than two years, he naturally knew the meaning of his master's words.

"Wait, do one last thing for me before you leave."

After explaining everything, Xuan Ye took a sip of the red wine and recalled the scene before the girl arrived——

"You don't want your shallow situation to be exposed too soon, do you?" Xuan Ye showed a cold and sarcastic look.

However, Bai Jiu saw through Xuan Ye's disguise at a glance, why didn't he know that he, a student, could not tell lies since he was a child.

"Xuan Ye, do you love me?"

"I..." Xuan Ye blushed and faltered, and then said with determination: "Yes, teacher, I... love you." This was the first time he didn't use an honorific title.

"Then try not to let her take my heart away." Bai Jiu said with a light smile.

But, does the teacher really love that girl?

He was skeptical, although she was indeed special.

If he really loved her, would he do these dangerous things to scare her and risk his life?

He wanted to find out the answer, so he acted out a play following Bai Jiu's improvisation, although he acted as a vicious villain.

The answer is obvious.

So what about me?
In fact, this is not the first time Xuan Ye has seen Bai Jiu in so many years.

He knew that the teacher would occasionally go to worship in front of the curtain on the day of his grandfather's death, so he would always hide from a distance and take a look, and he was satisfied.

But when did things change?
Xuan Ye rubbed the ring unconsciously, and suddenly realized that something was wrong with the touch.

It was originally a carefully carved epiphyllum ring, but now the main body is broken for some reason, and there are traces on the ring setting that seem to be burnt.

By the way, it seems that not long after getting this ring?The seller said that it was made from the bones of a certain god, saying that it could bless the owner to discover the true desire in his heart.It sounded interesting at the time, so I bought it right away.

For Bai Jiu's catastrophe, he spent a lot of money to find well-known craftsmen and blacksmiths at home and abroad to jointly forge an exquisite magic weapon.Of course, in terms of styling, he made some requirements.

So, his shackles called "love" can be regarded as a help, right?
Waiting, nostalgia, dedication, love... I have done everything I can do.

Next, let go or say goodbye, the story with the teacher is finally coming to an end.

I don’t know if my so-called love is because of the free teacher, or because of my yearning for his freedom...

After all, isn't the expectation that grandpa poured on himself a kind of bondage in the name of love?
So, let me walk around and have a look.

Not for teachers, not for business, just... for myself.

Hopefully...it will be a freeing and worthwhile journey.Xuan Ye smiled reassuringly, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

***
The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and the moon is shining brightly.

"I can't cry anymore, it will affect the recovery of the wound."

While instructing the girl, the nurse changed her gauze for the third time today.

"Sorry..." Lin Zuzu said softly.She opened her eyes, but she could only feel the faint light in front of her eyes. "Is it night already?"

"Yes, it's almost twelve o'clock, go to bed early." The nurse fixed the gauze, checked the ECG monitor and left.

Although Lin Zuzu couldn't see it, she could imagine the gentle and bright moonlight, because it was under such a clear light——

Bai Jiu crowded an online car-hailing car and followed her home, officially breaking into her life.

Bai Jiu used a warm illusion to fulfill Wutong's wish.

Bai Jiu treated her wound and asked her "does it hurt?"
Bai Jiu smiled lightly, comforting himself in pain.

……

However, it was time to say goodbye.

Lin Zuzu thought about parting with Bai Jiu more than once. After all, he is so free and easy, she just didn't expect to bring about such an ending in such a way.

……

Oops, I have to change the gauze again.

　The fact that Bai Jiu would do such a stupid thing is actually a foreshadowing, as is the sudden disobedience of other characters (in short, it is not Abe who forcibly pulls the progress).Bai Jiu's distortion and paranoia about "love" also comes from the stories that happened to his parents.

　　From the beginning to the end, Xiaobai was a very important existence to Zuzu. When she discovered the truth hidden by the 11th team and fell into darkness, he was the only one who reached out to hold her.So no matter what his purpose was, what had happened was the fact that he tenderly cared for the broken girl.

　　However, no one will be with anyone forever, and his exit will allow Zuzu to continue to grow and move forward.

　　Of course, Bai Jiu can stay in the human world, fight against Yi Tingxie, and turn this drama into an ordinary love triangle with the attitude of the defeated male second. This is what Abei doesn't want to see.

　　As the patriarch of the fox clan, Bai Jiu has more important things to do, although his main story may appear in the form of extra episodes.Of course, he will continue to appear in Zuzu's story.Because in the face of disaster, the fate of the two worlds will always be intertwined.

　　So, "Farewell Chapter" is here~ Please look forward to the next chapter~Thank you everyone~
