Dragon Clan: My Word Spirit is refreshed every week

Chapter 182 What a fucked up world

The night was already dark and the sea was rising.

The black tide lapped on the gravel beach lined with rocks outside the station, breaking into white spray.

Small crabs and shrimps with reflective backs emerged from the sand and climbed onto the gravel beach. They were knocked about by the tide, but after recovering their bodies and regaining their balance, they still crawled hard, not knowing where they were going.

Zhou Xuan walked on the wet beach, his leather boots rising and falling in an orderly manner, leaving a long trail of different shades.

Puddles everywhere reflected fragments of the night sky, and the gravel beach seemed to be sprinkled with stars.

Zhou Xuan saw Sakurai Rika bathing in the stars and moonlight at a glance.

The girl's outfit was exactly the same as a few days ago, with an old white down jacket paired with jeans, and a four-leaf clover bracelet on her wrist.

It's just that her whole body was filled with the aura of dust. Pale white hard dragon scales grew on her fair neck, and black and purple blood vessels were beating on the skin visibly to the naked eye. They were densely packed and terrifying.

Zhou Xuan walked to Sakurai Rika, took a deep breath, and didn't speak for a long time.

There was no joy or excitement in his heart at finally finding the girl, but some sadness and pain.

Obviously, the girl next to her had drunk the last Motolov cocktail very early, and the dragon's blood in her body had become irreversible.

Although the flowering season of her life has not yet begun, death has come unexpectedly.

Unless Bai Wang's fetal blood can be obtained immediately, even Jesus coming down to earth will not be able to save her.

At this time, Sakurai Rika spoke softly, her voice trembling and relieved: "Sir... long time no see. Are you here to kill me?"

"I heard from people in school that our law enforcers are all very, very powerful hybrids. They kill ferocious and out-of-control ghosts all over Japan every day."

"I...I am a ghost now and should be killed."

Zhou Xuan sat on the beach next to Sakurai Rika.

Only then did he realize that the girl's eyes had completely turned into two terrifying black holes, and he could no longer see anything.

Hybrids who become Deadpool due to the Motolov Cocktail generally lose their eyesight completely.

In order to be able to see the world clearly for a few days, the girl opposite had given everything she had.

Zhou Xuan spoke softly: "How did you recognize me? Or was it based on my smell?"

Sakurai Rika was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

"Yes! Your smell is very unique, you feel very energetic, but you also have a very mature feeling, as if you have lived for a long time and experienced many, many things."

Speaking of this, the girl seemed to suddenly remember something, and her expression was a little embarrassed: "I may lose control at any time, and it is dangerous to be around me. Why don't you stay away from me? I will solve it myself."

Hearing this, Zhou Xuan was slightly startled.

He looked down and found that the girl's hand, which had transformed into a dragon's claw, was tightly holding a sharp dagger, with the cold-gleaming tip facing his heart.

Zhou Xuan suddenly became speechless.

He felt that the girl in front of him was so innocent and cute.

Naively thinking that a short knife can kill Deadpool.

Even a B-level or even C-level Deadpool has as much vitality as Xiao Qiang, and it is difficult for ordinary knives to effectively kill him.

What's more, girl, you are an A-level hybrid!

After degenerating into a deadpool, he is a powerful creature that can come into contact with a lofty emperor like Yuan Zhisheng.

This knife can't even hurt your skin!

Moreover, you innocently took the Motoloff cocktail that was handed to you and drank the entire bottle without a drop.

There is no free lunch in the world.

If it was really a good thing that could evolve into a pure-blood dragon, who would give it away for free?

The world outside is indeed colorful, but it’s not worth risking your life just to have fun and sleep in the open for a few days, right?

Don't be too naive, girl!

And uncle, I am very strong, even Yuan Zhisheng is not strong enough for me to cut him with two swords.

You don't need to worry about my safety at all.

And I have always been overflowing with compassion.

After I kill those two bastards Herzog and Odin, I will definitely get you out of that prison.

At that time, you can go wherever you want in Japan, and you can dance around until you are completely impatient!

Then you can join the army of bad guys, and I will introduce you to many, many fun games.

The future life is so exciting.

But... why did you end up in such a reckless and irrational ending! ?

Why would a soft and artistic girl like you and Bai Yinghua do such a wild thing as jumping over a wall and escaping from prison? ?

Or you wait.

In a few days, I will send you a white cherry blossom specimen and a postcard from Ehime Prefecture!

If you want to go out for a walk then, just tell me!

I'll definitely take you out.

I'm a good old man!

……

Zhou Xuan buried his face deeply into his hands, the muscles all over his body were tense and his body was shaking uncontrollably.

He couldn't help but utter random words in his heart, but behind these thousands of words was deep powerlessness and pain.

I am indeed very strong now.

Everyone from the Dragon King on down is an ant, and no hybrid species can compete with him head-on. He can kill even ordinary Dragon Kings like chickens.

If Zhou Xuan were to defect to the Dragon Clan on a whim, then all the hybrids in the world would cry and hug his thighs, begging the boss to change his mind.

Money, beauty, power, etc. are all at your fingertips and you can get them at will.

But what use are these?

You are indeed awesome, extremely sharp, and fierce as hell, but you still can't save the life of the girl in front of you.

She was dying, but there was nothing you could do.

At this moment, Zhou Xuan suddenly realized a fact deeply.

The world of dragons has never been a passionate and light comedy, but a collection of tragedies written with the lives and blood of countless hybrids and dragons over thousands of years.

At this time, a dragon claw wrapped in a down jacket sleeve gently touched Zhou Xuan's shoulder.

"Sir, how about... how about I tell you what I have seen and heard these past few days?" Sakurai Rika tentatively spoke.

The girl noticed that the uncle beside her seemed to be in a bad mood.

A book she had read before said: "When people are in a bad mood, chatting with others is a good way to relieve themselves."

But Sakurai Rika thought about it again and again, but after all she couldn't find any suitable topic.

And now my mind is filled with what I saw and heard after escaping from the missionary school.

The outside world is so exciting!

A few short days felt more colorful than her previous eighteen years.

Looking at the girl's expression, Zhou Xuan immediately understood what she meant.

He was silent for a while, forced a smile, and said calmly: "Okay! Speaking of which, I have been looking for you for two days, but there has been no clue. I am also curious about where you have been these two days. ”

Hearing this, Sakurai Rika smiled with shame: "I'm very sorry! I've caused you trouble."

"It's okay, I found you now! And it's still in Ehime Prefecture. Speaking of which, the grilled mackerel and sea bream rice here are delicious."

"That's it!"

Sakurai Rika nodded, longing flashed across her face.

Then, she talked about her experiences in the past two days.

There is nothing in the girl's description about the fatigue and bitterness of the long journey over mountains and ridges. Instead, she is full of the excitement of seeing new things. The dazzling variety of flowers and plants, the unknown birds flying across the sky, the deer lying by the water drinking water, the towns in the distance filled with people and buildings...

These are very, very good.

"Yes, yes, I saw it in a TV series. There is a tunnel in that mountain, and there are many plants growing on both sides of the tunnel!" Sakurai Rika excitedly stretched out her hand and pointed into the distance.

“From the common pine beech, walnut tree, and three-flowered maple to the rare red bark spruce, Korean cliff pine, and winter cherry, you can find them there, and wildflowers such as honeysuckle and mountain rose grow in the gaps between the trees.”

"I heard that in the summer when these plants are at their best, the entire tunnel will be shrouded in them. When you pass by on a tram, you can see clouds made of colorful leaves and flowers when you look up."

Zhou Xuan looked at the excitement on Sakurai Rika's face and the dragon claw pointing in the direction of the sea, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

Sakurai Rika also gradually realized a fact.

What you say is destined to be untouchable.

Her voice became softer and softer, and her head lowered lower and lower.

No one is afraid of death.

This is especially true for young people as young as eighteen years old like Sakurai Rika.

The joy of seeing one new thing after another in the past few days made her feel like she was riding the most powerful horse in the world, all the way away, leaving all worries and fears far behind.

But now, she has stopped.

The fear of death finally caught up with her, trampling through her mind like a herd of wild horses, and the hard iron hooves struck her brain nerves with huge pain.

At the same time, the dragon blood in Sakurai Rika's body boiled and flowed rapidly, and pale white dragon scales grew crazily from all over her body.

The bloody and cruel desire rose in the girl's heart like a fueled flame, swallowing up the high ground of reason inch by inch.

Sakurai Rika suppressed her impulse and looked at Zhou Xuan with difficulty: "Quickly...let's go! I..."

Before she could finish speaking, the girl felt a warm and dry hand fall on the top of her head.

"There's something I should have said to you earlier."

"Actually, uncle, I am very, very powerful, almost omnipotent. If you want to leave school, just tell me."

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."

Speaking of this, Zhou Xuan paused, the expression on his face was indescribably complicated.

"Let's listen to the sea breeze together again."

Listening to Zhou Xuan's voice, Sakurai Rika calmed down for some reason.

She nodded obediently: "Yes."

The wind brings the smell of the sea to your face, unknown seabirds are soaring and singing in the night sky, and the waves lap against the rocks tirelessly.

Suddenly, Sakurai Rika felt a little bit of coldness on the back of her hand, but she didn't hear the sound of rain.

She was overjoyed: "Is...is it snowing?"

"Yes, this is the first snow this year."

"very nice."

Before she finished speaking, pale white dragon scales instantly covered Sakurai Rika's demure and gentle face, and the originally empty eye sockets ignited with bright red gold.

Zhou Xuan pursed his lips tightly, turned around and gently hugged the girl who was no longer as soft as a white cherry blossom.

……

The bright yellow train rumbled onto the Umezuji-cho train platform.

An ordinary-looking boy with a spiky hair walked out of the train together with a cute girl with rare silver long straight hair.

"Emilia Tan, it's snowing! This is the first snow this year!" The boy jumped up and down with excitement on his face.

"Yes, Natsuki-kun. We are so lucky!" Emilia smiled sweetly.

"That's right, the beach here is beautiful at night, it's full of stars." Natsuki-kun smiled mysteriously.

Hearing this, Emilia was a little confused and tilted her head cutely: "The ground is full of stars?"

"Yes, yes, you'll find out if you go and take a look."

Before she finished speaking, Natsuki-kun took Emilia's little hand and rushed to the beach.

But halfway through, Natsuki-kun suddenly stopped.

He found that the extremely handsome uncle walking towards him looked familiar. He seemed to be the kind person who cheered him on with Master Yue.

If it weren't for this uncle and Master Yue, I would definitely not have the courage to confess to Emilia, nor would I know that Emilia actually likes me too!

Thinking of this, Natsuki-kun quickly stepped forward and waved enthusiastically: "Uncle, uncle! Do you still remember me?"

Looking at the oncoming boy and girl, Zhou Xuan was slightly stunned.

He quickly recalled the rainy night when he first met Uesugoshi, and the spiky-headed boy Natsuki-kun.

"Of course I remember. It seems that you have succeeded, Natsuki-san! The little girl next to you is Emilia, right? She is developing so fast. Are you going to spend the night in Umezu Temple Town tonight? Get a twin room?" Zhou Xuan teased with a smile.

Hearing this, Natsuki-kun scratched his head in embarrassment, his face getting hot and red: "Uncle! Don't make fun of me! We have opened two single rooms!"

"By the way, what you are holding in your hand is..."

Natsuki-kun and Emilia looked at Zhou Xuan's arms in unison.

Princess Fang Zheng was holding a girl with a demure and soft appearance.

The girl was wearing a thick long windbreaker, her head was leaning on Zhou Xuan's chest, her eyes were closed, and her long eyelashes could be clearly counted, like a sleeping beauty who was immersed in a sweet dream and refused to wake up.

"Shh, she was tired from playing and fell asleep." Zhou Xuan said softly with his eyebrows lowered.

"Oh!" Natsuki-kun and Emilia quickly covered their mouths and lowered their voices.

"Well, uncle, let's see you back in Tokyo! I'll treat you to ramen at Master Yue's place then."

"Okay, be careful along the way and have a pleasant journey."

"Bye-Bye!"

Zhou Xuan hugged Sakurai Rika and watched Natsuki-kun and Emilia holding hands and rushing into the heavy snow with three steps and one jump.

The wind brought the faint voices and laughter of boys and girls.

They praised the beauty of the snow scene, discussed tomorrow's itinerary, and imagined a future that included each other.

The boy is high-spirited, the girl is bright and shy, and their eyes reflect each other.

What a classic plot of a Japanese love movie.

Zhou Xuan has always felt that movies are something that can be followed.

The emotions of the characters in the movie, the ups and downs of the plot, and the accumulation and explosion of conflicts are all so natural and well-founded.

But reality is different.

Reality never makes sense.

Like now.

They are also as old as flowers, but some are dead and some are still young.

"What a fucked up world."

The smile on Zhou Xuan's face had long since disappeared.

His expression was as cold as a thousand-year-old glacier, but his pupils were burning with monstrous flames.
