our secret base

Chapter 111 Anxiety
After being sticky for a while, the boys and girls still maintained their intimate embrace: Miss Xie held his head in her arms, while Ji Chunzao simply lay on his body, wrapped in the middle Yan Jingxing's limbs were stiff and he didn't dare to move around. Everything felt wrong.

And...it's so hot.

The strong sunlight above our heads evaporates and dries the moist rainy air. As noon approaches, the temperature begins to rise again.

Coupled with the body temperature from people getting close, it becomes even hotter.

"What about that person?"

After combing Yan Jingxing's hair neatly with his fingers, Xie Yuzhi finally started asking about business.

"Where is Qiu Qimeng now? What kind of person is she?"

"She is an unscrupulous guy. The only problem is that she is too strong." Yan Jingxing sighed and replied.

He described the battle between the two and what was revealed to him from Qiu Qimeng's mouth.

"What? You are already so strong and can be resurrected infinitely? Isn't this too shameless?"

Ji Chunzao couldn't help but marvel.

Right.

"I think so too."

Yan Jingxing couldn't help but sigh.

"...If what Qiu Qimeng said is true, and there have been selected warriors on this planet since ancient times who have become dressers and influenced the course of human history, then the myths and legends spread around the world may be true in the true sense. 'myths and legends'."

The battlefield of ancient times was a battle between gods and demons that was no less severe and fierce than modern wars.

"However, I still feel very strange. Even the 'savior' in history is not so strong, right?"

Xie Yuzhi held her chin with her hand, looking solemn.Even though she had already guessed that Yan Jingxing was no match for that woman, she never thought that the gap would be so big. Qiu Qimeng's existence completely exceeded human imagination of individual strength.

"If you are really as strong as Qiu Qimeng, even if there were also people in the ancient Roman Empire in history, it is difficult to imagine that you will be captured by the Romans."

"Perhaps different users have different levels of development of the body. The current savior may be stronger than the previous one."

"...It's a shame that you survived in her hands."

"She didn't want to kill me."

Yan Jingxing shook his head.

"After resurrecting me, she left."

"What is the purpose of this person?" Ji Chunzao couldn't understand.

"I don't know. According to her, she thinks my current strength is too weak, and she wants me to fight with me again after I become stronger. In other words, she hopes to devour my physical body after it becomes stronger."

"...Well, that sounds like a good thing."

After hearing this, Miss Xie's expression was a little subtle.

"Is this, is this a good thing? Aren't we going to have to fight again when the time comes? And it will definitely happen next time..."

"No, according to Qiu Qimeng, there is actually a very simple plan to avoid fighting with her."

Xie Yuzhi's answer was still calm.

"As long as Jing Xing stops using his body from today on, becomes an ordinary person, and keeps his strength at the same level, then she will not appear again."

"Eh……"

Ji Chunzao's words became a bit stuttering.

"That seems to be the case. But, are that person's words really credible?"

"Since she didn't want Jing Xing to really die and took the initiative to use her power to resurrect him, we can think that her statement has a certain degree of credibility, otherwise there would be no need to do such troublesome things."

"Well...that's what I said."

Neither the boy nor the girl spoke anymore, and the atmosphere fell into silence for a moment.

Qiu Qimeng is too powerful, and the sense of oppression it brings makes people feel desperate.Even if she survives, even if she can find a way to become stronger, there is still no way to defeat her in the limited future.

"……I will not give up."

Yan Jingxing clenched his fists and whispered.

"I will not give up and become stronger. Even if I won't be targeted by Qiu Qimeng, or may even be forgotten, I still don't want to... giving up may not be easy, and maybe I will live in panic instead." "Of course. "Although the passive resistance plan was just proposed, Miss Xie obviously does not think that is the best option. "We are not sure whether Qiu Qimeng will regret it in the future, and we cannot be sure if the other party knows that Jing Xing has adopted passive resistance. Will the treatment plan do more extreme things? The most important thing is, just like you said-"

Xie Yuzhi covered his fist with her soft jade palm and whispered.

“We cannot place our hopes on the kindness of others.”

"Yeah. Besides, don't say that she is targeting me. I also have a debt to settle with her. Forget about my matters, did I mention it just now? She is actually targeting you."

After hearing this, Xie Yuzhi was stunned for a moment.

She suddenly fell silent. This strange behavior made Yan Jingxing a little uneasy.

"what happened?"

"...Jing Xing may not have noticed, but I have to point out something." Miss Xie sighed softly, "Qiu Qimeng didn't target us. Including the words she said, I'm afraid she wasn't using us. To threaten you."

"Uh, but she didn't say she wanted to meet Chun Zao..."

"That's the literal meaning. When I heard your description of her, I realized that this person is the type to speak her mind. Maybe it's because she has always been too powerful, so she doesn't have the ability to speak. "

Yan Jingxing was stunned.

Then he decisively made an attack that killed both of them...

"The reason why I made this judgment is actually very simple: because in her eyes there is only you, and there is no existence of Chunzao and me at all. The king and the priest may be very important people to that world, but to her It’s not the case, we are just your accessories.”

Xie Yuzhi's slender eyebrows frowned slightly when she was halfway through her words.

"Why do you feel like your hostility has weakened?"

"...a little bit."

Yan Jingxing scratched his hair in embarrassment.

"Because if what you said is true, what I did when I wanted to die with her was just...right? Thinking about it carefully, she didn't seem to have done anything particularly bad. She gave me time to spend time with you before the battle started. I said goodbye and did not go to a crowded place to cause damage. Although I died because of her, I am alive again now..."

"No, no."

Xie Yuzhi's eyebrows were lowered, and his eyes were unusually gloomy.

"She wants to kill you and has already let you die once. This reason is enough."

Although he was unhappy with the woman who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, she might have noticed "something" earlier than him or Chun Zao.

Perhaps, this is something that "needs to fight with each other" to understand. Different character flaws hidden in everyone are usually difficult to notice.

"Jing Xing... doesn't seem to care about his own life."

she thought.

For her, for Chun Zao, Yan Jingxing, as a soldier, is willing to risk his life. This feeling of being protected and valued is naturally touching——

However, this should never be taken for granted.

From Xie Yuzhi's point of view, she hopes that Jing Xing can choose to protect herself first, not only out of emotion, but also out of reason.

The situation at that time did not develop to the point where we had to choose between the lives of three people.As a result, the other party only said one sentence, and Yan Jingxing made the decision to sacrifice without hesitation - or subconsciously, which was unusual.

But... Xie Yuzhi didn't think he had "done anything wrong". From Jing Xing's point of view at the time, he must have chosen to make a desperate move because he felt that there was no other way to resist, right?

So, in the final analysis, it's her fault, it's her fault for being so useless.

Warriors, priests, and kings, since the three are juxtaposed, there must be some way to fight side by side on the same battlefield, but she hasn't discovered it yet—

Xie Yuzhi's emotions and breathing showed signs of losing control.She suddenly leaned over and hugged his shoulders tightly with her arms, hiding the expression on her face.

"Yuzhi...?"

She heard Yan Jingxing's somewhat surprised and confused voice.

In an invisible place, the girl's lips were pressed together tightly, and her teeth were biting together hard - so hard that one worried that they might break it.

The dark pupils swayed with anxious shadows.

If I could help him...no, if I could protect him in turn, nothing would have happened...
