The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again
Chapter 258 Habit
Jiang Liujing was almost certain that this person was Xavier himself, even though he still had the mask on.
It's just that his usual image in school is gentle and elegant, similar to Cyrus, but at this moment he behaves like a mad dog that bites everyone he sees.
Loyal, but a bit noisy.
So Jiang Liujing casually gave Cyrus some advice: "The guy next to you keeps mumbling. Is his throat uncomfortable? If he's sick, it's better to let him go back and rest."
Cyrus replied, "Don't worry, he's very healthy. The Cult isn't short of people to the point of having sick people working outside."
Then with a wave of his hand, Xavier's last way of speaking was blocked.
It was as if a piece of bread had been stuffed into my mouth, filling up all the empty space. I couldn't chew it or swallow it. Only my eyes could still move around in shock and sadness.
Another masked woman was also there. Unlike Xavier who was forced to remain silent, she hadn't spoken a word from the beginning.
Jiang Liujing's only impression of her was her long hair that was as bright as gold. She was very beautiful. Even among the crowd of blondes on the continent, her hair was particularly outstanding and shining.
Cyrus introduced the two of them and said that they were the reserve for the next Holy Son or Holy Daughter of the Divine Religion, and that there were twenty-two others like them.
"Of course, if you come, the situation will be different." Cyrus added, as if afraid that he would misunderstand something, "If you come, you don't have to compete with anyone. The position of the Son of God is yours."
This was the second time Jiang Liujing heard him mention that he wanted to sit in this seat.
This is a very special signal. The first time it is mentioned, it may be a joke, but if it is repeated a second time, it often means that the other party is serious.
Jiang Liujing couldn't understand why Cyrus was so obsessed with him, a person who didn't belong to the religion.
He visited the coming-of-age blessing ceremony and saw the legendary holy water unique to the religion. Dozens of golden circles swirled back and forth in the ditches carved out in advance in the temple, and formed a pool of water in the center.
A slightly smaller statue stands in the middle of the pool. If you look casually, it seems that the holy water is flowing from the statue.
The statue has its eyes closed and hands raised, with a compassionate expression, as if it has pity on the world.
Jiang Liujing found it strange. Compared to other statues he had seen, this statue had a strange stiffness. The facial features were more realistic, but the movements were more rigid, like the difference between a wax figure and a stone statue.
Without exception, everyone who was enveloped in the holy water had an expression of enjoyment and immense comfort.
Visibly, their skin became smooth and shiny, which meant that impurities in their bodies were further removed.
The surrounding magic power rushed towards them even faster, almost forming small whirlpools.
The crowd exclaimed in envy. This year, the Divine Religion was particularly generous. The holy water it brought was of higher concentration than in previous years, and the effect of baptism was also particularly powerful. Those who caught up with it this year were truly lucky.
Jiang Liujing watched from the side and felt that the effect of the holy water was very similar to that of the Elf Mother Tree.
They had analyzed in class that the key to the Divine Religion's widespread influence on the mainland lies in this holy water.
No one knows the principle behind its existence, and it cannot be analyzed or replicated. Only the Divine Religion in the entire continent possesses it continuously, as if it were a grace bestowed upon it by the gods.
Except for a little accident at the beginning, the festival went very smoothly.
As soon as it was over, Jiang Liujing pulled Chi back in a hurry.
Chi was suddenly held by his hand, and her cold and soft skin touched his much hotter palm, as if some ice had melted and was sticking to the flame. She was stunned for a moment.
Ever since he confessed his feelings, Jiang Liujing felt awkward looking at him.
Although Jiang Liujing was not opposed to Chi wanting to follow him, the intimate actions that they used to do without thinking were much less frequent.
Before this, Chi hadn't seen Jiang Liujing for several days.
It was very uncomfortable, but bearable. Chi knew he had to give Jiang Liujing some time.
He had to let his mind, which was extremely slow when it came to emotions, react little by little to realize that the person in front of him was not his brother, but a man, a man who loved him and had desires for him.
This process will inevitably be ignored by Jiang Liujing.
Chi was even prepared for a long-term battle, but Jiang Liujing took the initiative to hold his hand, just one week after he confessed his love.
Chi's brain went blank for a moment, and his brain cells seemed to stop working at the same time. He felt slightly dizzy and wanted to ask Jiang Liujing if he had made a decision.
However, just as he opened his mouth, he heard the black-haired boy in front of him suddenly let out a soft "ah". As if he suddenly realized something, he hurriedly pulled his hand out of the naked hand.
He turned and gave Chi an awkward smile.
"Sorry, I forgot."
red:"……"
Chi's mood plummeted from the highway intersection to the bottom of the cliff.
He looked at Jiang Liujing deeply, without any expression on his hard and cold face, which made the child, who was already feeling a little guilty, feel even more uncomfortable.
Suddenly he took a step forward and forcibly grabbed his hand.
Ignoring Jiang Liujing's suddenly confused expression, he wrapped Jiang Liujing's entire hand in his palm. The boiling heat quickly spread from the palm of his hand, covering the soft and cold area.
He stared straight ahead, not looking at Jiang Liujing, and strode forward, dragging him forward, saying coldly, "You know you're cold, so why don't you wear gloves when you go out?"
"Aren't you here?" Jiang Liujing muttered, and was stunned for a moment after he finished speaking.
He did get used to it.
There is no need to be afraid of the cold, because there will always be people around to keep him warm.
As a person with a cold body, he has very few common hats, scarves and gloves among the props in the space.
Chi's eyebrows drooped, his expression shrouded in the shadow of his sharp brow bone. He said in a light tone: "Not necessarily."
"what?"
"I may not always be by your side." Chi suddenly stopped.
Jiang Liujing was a beat too slow and nearly bumped into him. Before he could even open his mouth, a dark shadow suddenly lowered down and hit his forehead.
Breath hitched.
Chi's handsome face suddenly became huge in his eyes.
A moment of nervousness and panic appeared in the boy's clear eyes like glass. Chi was too close, too close. Jiang Liujing could feel his hot breath hitting the sensitive skin of his cheek, bringing waves of trembling itchiness.
Then, the young man's deep, magnetic voice slowly rang out from the front, "If you choose someone else in the future, I will leave space for you..."
