Even the people in the settlement completely acquiesce that they are husband and wife. Coupled with Shubi's occasional questions, she has been labeled as a child bride, and he has also been labeled as a copper smelter.

...Gah, this machine is obviously older than my age multiplied by ten, so it's like an old cow eating young grass, right?

Rick said to himself: "If it was Su Bai, he must have said so."

"Su Bai..." Shubi whispered, "Rick, this name is often mentioned."

"That's right, mentioning him makes me feel relaxed, and it's just mentioning it in front of you. I seldom say it to other people, because everyone else will remember the past, and we can't look back." Rick sat Picked up a wooden sign from the wooden cabinet, and threw the engraved wooden sign into the fire: "I will only think of the past when I can't hold it anymore. Mentioning it will make me feel easy……"

He looked at Su Bai's spirit card burning in the flames: "It's been five years, and I haven't seen him again...Su Bai is such a powerful person, it is unlikely that he will die, but I am also afraid that if he really dies... no one remembers."

"So come here every year...to burn wood?"

"This should be called a spirit card. It has a name engraved on it... I remember how his name was written, although it was written in a completely unfamiliar character." Rick smiled wryly and touched Hubie's head: "This time you are with me Come on, I was the only one in the past, that kind of feeling... It's not good."

It feels good to be accompanied by someone.

Rick didn't have any ill feeling towards Shubi at the beginning, nor could he say he hated it. It was also due to the influence of Qi Yuexue... Therefore, he didn't have a natural fear of the Ex-Machinas, but quickly accepted her existence, and he also doubted her existence. However, did he inherit any special buffs from Su Bai, otherwise why both of them are so attractive to the Ex-Machinas.

Time passed too fast, a year in the blink of an eye, but it seemed that they only stayed together for a few days, and Rick also felt a little bit unreal.

"Rick..." Shubi's voice was thin and weak: "Tell me about that Su Bai?"

"Alright." Rick picked up the blanket, wrapped his somewhat cold body, sorted out his words, and talked about the past... When it comes to the past, there are always some topics that cannot be avoided. Now, whether he has gotten better or not, he doesn't know in his heart.

In five years, the settlement has more than doubled in size compared to the past, with more than [-] people, and the total number of sacrifices was less than fifty. This is already a very rare proportion, but these fifty people were all killed without exception. Rick ordered to die... He still implements the previous set of values, but the more he implements, the more painful and contradictory he feels.

"Su Bai is a very powerful person. Perhaps from the beginning of the past, he has realized my predicament... Should we humans hold weapons, should we pick up sharp knives... I often feel hysterical pain Think about it, if everyone had learned swords and martial arts back then, and became as powerful as Kelong, so powerful that he could kill demons, wouldn’t those people not have to die.”

He looked at his hands and could smell blood.

"I order those who trust me to die for my own will, and insist that this sacrifice is meaningful, insist that it is valuable, like a hypocrite... If everyone has Power, the result will be completely different." Rick read what Su Bai said in the past: "Whether you choose to resist or choose to comply, no one knows what the result will be."

A small hand touched his head: "Rick, it's already very powerful."

"Thank you for your comfort." Rick shook his head: "I've heard this many times."

"No, this is the truth." Hubby said with inorganic eyes: "The current planetary environment is a disaster for human beings, it is fatally bad, and human survival is an anomaly... But Rick is alive, alive, and still alive." It must be a miracle of your heart to be able to look forward to tomorrow and still think about the past, which is great in itself."

"That's just... just dying." Rick let out a long sigh of relief. He would be angry when he heard this in the past.

"It's different." Hubby moved slightly, she sat on Rick's lap, stared into his eyes, and said firmly: "In the past, Hubby didn't understand, but now Hubie understands, Rick hates people dying, No matter who you are, whether you are human or not, you hate killing, and you hate being killed. In this crazy world, if you can maintain the persistence and kindness in your heart, this is your heart..."

She grasped exactly what: "This is Rick's heart, but Rick himself is unwilling to accept it."

In the room where there was only the sound of wind and flames, Rick was held on his cheek. He couldn't avoid such a gaze, and finally smiled wryly: "You really... have analyzed me thoroughly."

"sorry."

"No need to apologize, I'm not blaming you, but rather happy."

"Happy? Are you not angry?"

"I'm not angry, I'm happy, I'm sure." Rick said softly, "Perhaps, I should have realized earlier, realized my true thoughts earlier, if I realized earlier, I wouldn't be so confused. "

"Rick, what do you plan to do after you decide?" Hubby asked in a low voice.

"It's very difficult to make a decision. I still can't say whether I'm right, so I want to meet someone." Rick sat up straight, holding a spiritual card he just made in his hand, looking at the crooked sign engraved on it. The crooked Chinese characters threw the wooden sign into the pile of flames: "In the past, I always thought that I was not qualified to go to him, because I didn't do anything, just repeated my mistakes... Now, I want to tell him my answer .”

"I see." Hubby nodded, and said obediently: "No matter what Rick wants to do, I will follow you until the machine is scrapped."

Rick's cheeks were flushed: "You, your line just now was a bit..."

"What's wrong with the lines?" Ex-Machina tilted his head and asked cutely.

"It's nothing...you can be my wife." Rick said suddenly.

"?" Hubby tilted his head: "I don't know the meaning, I don't understand clearly... Repeat the request, what did you just say?"

"Be my wife." Rick dared to say it again: "Look, people in the settlement have said it many times anyway, and I need an identity to introduce you to Su Bai later, colleagues How can a partner be nice to the reader, I also want that older single dog to take a good look at it, and just say "this is my wife" and throw it in his face, how interesting it is."

"If this is the reason..." Shubi said with a stern face, "I refuse."

"Well, I was wrong, I'll be more serious." Rick got up, knelt down on one knee, and took out the prepared ring: "Be my wife, Huby... originally planned to propose after returning home, but A little earlier."

Shubi's expression showed an extremely strong sense of astonishment and complexity. She opened her mouth and bit her lip. Miscalculations in the logic circuit and a large number of bugs were happening, which made this Ex-Machina girl show a real and unfaltering panic. Expression: "I, I... I ask for an explanation, the so-called marriage..."

She didn't agree immediately, she clearly wanted to agree, but she didn't.

Rick was about to speak when a voice came.

"The so-called marriage is a contract between human beings and breeding objects. It does not have any compulsory magical effects. It is limited to the moral level. It is not only a contract between the two parties to form a family, but also a rationalization of possessing the other party. The two parties are each other's spouses. couple."

"But it's a pity that the Ex-Machina has no extra holes, and the reproductive behavior is destined to be impossible to perform, and there are no hard conditions... So it can only be called a couple in name, which means that you will be a virgin for the rest of your life."

After a subtle pause for half a second, Rick clenched his fist and said, "That's not a problem at all!"

After shouting, he realized that the voice was very familiar, and then the door was pushed open, and the familiar black and white skirt and long silver hair appeared in his eyes. Qi Yuexue stepped into the cave, and she turned sideways to get halfway out of the way. body position, followed by a more familiar voice: "You just had a subtle pause, after all, for a young man like you, this kind of choice is quite painful... In this world without entertainment activities, primitive Piston movement is the most basic pleasure, and it has been taken away, which is too miserable...Shall I give you the whole cup?"

"I don't need that kind of thing, love is enough!" Rick clenched his fist and swore, "Say, when did you start eavesdropping? In the past five years, you still look like this... "

Rick's tough tone didn't last a whole sentence, and he choked up a little while speaking. He didn't know whether Su Bai was alive or dead. Now that he saw his old friend again, he was of course very excited inside, and he had a lot to say.

"Seeing that you guys are in a good mood, I didn't want to interrupt. It's because you're a bit uncertain, so you came out to help you. My maid and the little girl over there seem to be acquaintances, so they can be a matchmaker." Su Bai let out a mouthful of white mist , with a happy smile: "It just so happens that I'm here to be a witness to your marriage contract. This is a wedding witnessed by a reincarnation person. I guarantee that your happiness will last forever~"

With Su Bai's permission, Qi Yuexue said, "Are you called Shubi now? It's a very good name, much better than the previous number... It seems that you have gained your heart, otherwise you wouldn't be in this matter." So hesitant, if you become Rick's partner, it will be easier for you to analyze your heart, but you are hesitating, which proves that your heart is shaking, so tell me why you are shaking."

Under the earnest persuasion of her family, Shubi's expression was shaken, and then she collapsed. She slowly said in a confused and sad tone: "It was me...the strategy I gave destroyed Rick's hometown."
