Hearing Qingming's words, Gu Ze was taken aback. "No, Seimei..." Looking at the young onmyoji seriously, he felt... complicated.

"First of all, I don't know why you are apologizing." Gu Ze paused for a while, but still felt that he had to make his thoughts clear first, otherwise he would be really sad about this hurdle in his heart, "But I think we are equal. Yes, there is no situation where you protect me or I depend on you."

Gu Ze looked seriously at the man in front of him whom he had always regarded as a male god, whom he longed for infinitely, with a serious expression on his face. "Indeed, if I say anything about protecting you now, I'm too overwhelmed. Every time I actually fight, you are protecting me. I am very grateful to you for this, but I want you to know that I can't only fight You are protecting your back, and I have also worked very hard to become stronger, although my efforts are too small in your eyes." Speaking up to this point in a hurry, Gu Ze rubbed his hair in embarrassment, never being so honest with a person I was so nervous... But he still smiled and added the last sentence.

"I will work hard so that one day I can become a trustworthy existence."

He stared at the Onmyoji opposite him in a daze, and then the atmosphere became silent.

Gu Ze knew in his heart that no matter how gentle Abe Seimei was and how kind he was to him, the difference in age would still affect the unequal cognition of two people in some aspects. , monsters, these all exist, and his growth rate is so fast that he can't understand how weak Gu Ze is in a peaceful environment—or comfortable.But even so, it doesn't mean that Gu Ze didn't work hard.

"...Sorry," finally, the handsome onmyoji spoke first, with a very serious tone, "I apologize to you this time, Gu Ze." Indeed, it was his mentality that was wrong. From the very beginning, he let Gu Ze go. In a protected position, even subconsciously lowered the age of the other party in my heart.But he forgot, or didn't consider that Gu Ze was also an adult man, and he was unwilling to be under the protection of others.

"Uh, Qingming, what are you apologizing for...I didn't mean that..." Seeing Qingming's serious tone of apology to him, Gu Ze returned to Er Que's character, stuttering even though he said he wanted to protect Such words from the male god...but it is still so shameful to be recognized by the male god!

"Ahem, er, what happened just now?" Seeing that the atmosphere was getting more and more strange, Gu Ze coughed twice and silently changed the subject.

When it came to business, the smile on Abe Seimei's face faded a lot, and his expression became serious, "Do you still remember that I asked you to shine a flashlight on the ground at the beginning? That's because I didn't intend to It’s strange to find these rough and uneven places on the ground, although they look natural, but in fact there are hidden secrets, very similar to a formation in my original era.”

"Although I am not proficient in this, I can still see the simple formation, so I wanted to take a closer look at that time, but you fell asleep unexpectedly... But because of the shape of the formation, I already have a general impression , I didn’t want to call you up, but at this moment, you were suddenly attacked, so the combat system was automatically activated, and I came out.” Seimei Abe paused, “At that time, the space in the passage was limited, I came out In the future, there will be no place to fight, so we can only deal with it carefully, something unexpected happened during the fight, the ground collapsed, and you fell directly."

"..." It sounded like a lot of things had happened while he was sleeping, Gu Ze rubbed his hair speechlessly, "Okay, then I'll go out and have a look now? black…"

"Well," Abe Seimei nodded slightly, "Be careful." This time he didn't comfort Gu Ze, such as "I will protect you". Treat him like a child, but treat the other person as a reliable adult.

Gu Ze nodded with a smile, then closed his eyes, and appeared outside the space the next moment.

It was still pitch black.Gu Ze blinked uncomfortably, and slowly stretched out his hand to grope beside him—he was sitting on a dry and soft object, which felt like straw, and it was this object that prevented him from directly hitting it when he fell. On the ground, it acts as a buffer.

Reaching out to explore carefully, Gu Ze touched a familiar object—his backpack.It seemed that it fell together with him, and the backpack was thrown away not far away. Gu Ze reached out and touched it, then pulled it over, opened the backpack, and found a spare flashlight from inside.

"Crack—" With a soft sound, Gu Ze turned on the flashlight, and the bright light made him close his eyes for a moment. After getting used to it, he opened his eyes and observed the surrounding environment.

Gu Ze first noticed that just as he guessed, he was really sitting on a pile of straw. Looking up, there was a dark hole. It seemed that he fell from that hole, but it was pitch black above. I can't see anything. This pile of straw should be used as a buffer. Looking around, this seems to be the end of a long and narrow passage.It is still the same natural structure as the passage he was in before, a narrow passage leading to a darkness, and there is nothing else.

Gu Ze turned the flashlight, stood up, and carefully illuminated the ground with the flashlight. Like the previous passage, there were still many bumps and uneven places, but this time Gu Ze knew that it was not due to natural causes, but artificially carved. . "Qingming, can you see what magic circle this is?"

Abe Seimei in his mind was silent for a while. "It looks familiar...but I really don't know much about this technique, and the magic circle on the ground looks a little different from what I know." Abe Seimei said.

"So..." Gu Ze didn't have much hope, and turned the flashlight casually, "I also find it very strange, this pyramid is obviously made by imitating my original world, and logically speaking, it shouldn't be something from the hunter world. But it is different from the things in my original world..." While expressing his doubts to Qingming, Gu Ze scanned the surroundings carelessly, but suddenly stopped.

He looked down at the straw under his feet, bent down, and lifted a few handfuls of the straw with one hand—there was a piece of dry dark red underneath.

Gu Ze frowned.He slowly lifted off all the straws on top—except for the golden straw on the top, the straw below was all dry dark red.

Gu Ze, who had spent a lot of time on Meteor Street and participated in many activities with the brigade, realized at first glance that those were blood that had dried up for a long time and had solidified on the straw.

Ahhh, it looks like something serious has been messed with.
