[Hunter Doujin] Journey

"Hey."

A voice interrupted the uneasy Xiaojie.

He looked sideways, and Tres had come to him at some point.

"Don't worry—" Tres lowered his voice, "He's fine."

"..." Xiaojie looked at him seriously after hearing the words, and the panic in his heart subsided a little after he felt that Tres hadn't lied.Although he really wanted to ask what happened to the other party, it was obvious that there was no way to explain it in detail in the current environment.

Xiaojie didn't even listen to what Her Majesty the Queen said on the stage, he just felt that staying here was like a year; when everyone around him left the center of the square and sat behind the tables by the side of the square, he also followed, casually Find a place to sit down.

"Let's go." Daisy came to Xiaojie, knocked on the table and said, "You don't need to sit here to continue the blind date. I have already greeted Her Highness the Queen."

"En." Little Jamie nodded dully, obviously thinking about other things, but Daisy didn't care what was on his mind, she just took him back to the house.

"Tonight, all the chosen women will hold a wedding ceremony, you just stay here until the evening ceremony begins."

"Wedding?" Xiaojie was awakened by Daisy's words.

"Well, it's tonight." Daisy was obviously not in a good mood, and she had no intention of explaining in detail, so she left after saying this.

[Celidonish said that he would leave here today, that the female alien race will hold a wedding with a man today, and Qi Ya suddenly disappeared...]

Xiaojie felt that something was happening, and it was a very important thing.

"!"

Suddenly, Xiaojie raised his head to look at the door, because a smell that he missed very much was coming from outside the door at this moment.

With a thought in his heart, Xiaojie ran straight to open the door when he thought about it, and sure enough, the boy who worried him very much was standing not far outside the door.

"Qi Ya!" Xiaojie's eyes lit up, and the stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground. "It's good that you're fine." Seeing that the other party was safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Qi Ya blinked his eyes, he wanted to come over secretly to see Xiaojie, but Xiaojie robbed him of his lines.

"What's the matter, you're so worried about me all of a sudden?" Qi Ya walked in and found no one else inside.

"Of course I'm worried about you! Because you're not in the square, I'm afraid something will happen to you." Recalling the chaotic mood before, Xiaojie frowned unconsciously. He lowered his head and suddenly thought, what if that When Qi Ya really had an accident, what should he do?

As soon as this idea was born, Xiaojie felt a pain in his heart, and subconsciously covered his chest, feeling suffocated.

"What's the matter, Xiaojie, is there something uncomfortable?" Qi Ya has been observing Xiaojie's expression all the time, so he is very keen to find out that there is something wrong with him.

"It's nothing, as long as you're fine." Xiaojie shook his head and shook off that annoying thought. He didn't want this kind of thing to happen, and he didn't want to have this kind of idea again.Because it's too... scared, yes, scared, a word that makes him very strange.This made his heart move, and he felt a strange feeling.

"...Well, if I have nothing to do, I will leave first, mainly to come and see you." Qi Ya pointed to Xiaojie's chest, indicating to him about the tattoo.

"En! Okay." Xiaojie nodded after realizing it, expressing his understanding.

After all, there are tattoos, and the conversation between the two will be heard by Celidonish.But I thought that Qi Ya might use gestures to tell him something, but the other party took out a leaf full of characters from his pocket, and then stuck it on Xiaojie's chest.

As the leaves approached, a refreshing feeling swept over the body.

"This is the spell Yar gave me. It can temporarily block the tattoo with a spell, so that he won't hear our next conversation."

"Yar? Did you see her? Are you connected?" Xiaojie was surprised.

"There are many things, let me start from the beginning." Qi Ya pulled the chair by the table and sat down.

In fact, after Xiaojie was taken away, Qi Ya has been working hard to obtain outside information, and since those days, Pariston has often had nothing to do to harass Jin, and it is precisely because of the dialogue between Pariston and Jin , Qi Ya learned some key words, which can be pieced together: they were deliberately captured by the alien woman - this clue.

Since he was captured on purpose, there must be something 'profitable' behind it.Whether it's a secret or a treasure, or something else, Qi Ya thought for a while, and suddenly remembered that when he was captured, the abilities used by the female aliens were not [Nian], but other powers.If it is said that Pallistone and the others took a fancy to this point and wanted to gain new power to deliberately become captives, then the logic is still smooth.

But everything is speculation after all, and Qiya needs to have actual evidence to support this view; so he saw that Palliston's travel was not restricted, and learned from the conversation between Palliston and Jin that Xiaojie can go out to train this From a few points, I came to the conclusion that if you get close to a female alien, you will have a certain degree of freedom.

Therefore, in the next few days, Qi Ya first gained freedom by improving the favor of the guard female alien, and then won the favor of a seemingly high-status alien while he was out.

"Wait!" When Qiya was narrating the words to this point, Xiaojie interrupted him: "Qiya, the way you get a good impression will not be..." Xiaojie asked tentatively, while the other party's eyes wandered did not look at him.

"Ahem—you know that, I had no choice." Qi Ya didn't expect Xiaojie to react so quickly, which made him a little embarrassed.

"..." I couldn't tell what it was like in my heart, but combined with the strange emotions in my heart before, Xiaojie suddenly became very unhappy.Thinking that Qiya might use 'marriage' as a bait to gain favor, Xiaojie felt very uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart, and he had an inexplicable sense of impetuousness.It's a pity that he doesn't know what emotion it is, so he doesn't know what's wrong with him.

"Xiaojie?" Qi Ya was a little puzzled, Xiaojie seemed abnormal today.

"It's nothing, you can continue talking."

It is much more convenient for Qi Ya to act with some freedom, and he also learned about the classification and sacrifice of female alien fighters.Afterwards, another man was arrested. From the appearance, he was a strange man, and even Tres didn't look like he knew him, so Qi Ya began to analyze. After becoming a man, Qi Ya deduced that the other party might be Yar, because only Yar, who is dead, can Xiaojie hide the identity of the other party; and now there is a strange man at this time, it must be a face change After Yar.

What Qi Ya didn't expect was that Yar was sent to their prison, and Tres also deduced the identity of the other party, and even directly pointed out this point, which surprised Qi Ya very much. While Lace was paying attention, he also observed Al's reaction.

"I'm not dead yet." Yar also admitted directly at the time, "You guys are very familiar with Xiaojie, so I won't hide this." Both Chiya and Tres knew that Yar was referring to himself The identity of this point.

"I think you know more than we do." Tres stared at him.In fact, Tres's intention is very simple, to help Qiya get more information.Tres is sure that this is the last key point of whether Qiya can take Xiaojie away. He really wants to help Xiaojie, because the other party saved him, and they are still friends.

Al looked around at the two of them, then nodded.

"It's okay to tell you, but there will be a price after listening." The implication is that there will be something to do after listening.

"As long as what you say is valuable, there is no problem." Qi Ya agreed with that, after all, obtaining information is more important at the moment.

The actual situation is the same as what Qiya guessed. Pariston and the others accidentally encountered a female alien, and after discovering that the other party could use fighting methods other than Nian, they drew up a plan to let a small number of people retreat, and they took them as prisoners first.And after some high-level figures also learned about this matter, everyone is cooperating in acting.However, the speed of the female aliens is too fast, and it is difficult to be located every time. The only one who can play a role in direction is Xiaojie, because of the telekinetic ability left on Xiaojie by Celidonish, he can know how far he is from the camp. The general location, but this alone is not enough. More detailed confirmation is needed about the exact location of the cave where they entered the alien female tribe.

So Yar chose to let Xiaojie turn back into a man, and through the twelve female members who had ambushed in advance, ambushed in the general position provided by Cheridonish, and waited for Xiaojie and the others to locate them in detail.

"Wait, how did Celidonish pass on the location?" Qi Ya thought of the answer as soon as he finished speaking this question.That's Nobu's spatial ability.

"It seems that you already have the answer yourself, so I will continue."

Then those of them who were still outside began to investigate things about the Inhumans.Among them, Kurapika has a deep understanding of the ancient ruins, and through the free-moving Pariston inside, he conveyed the ancient text records outside, and Kurapika deciphered the secret about the female alien.

It was written on the big stone next to the female alien sacrifice stone. Maybe Palliston didn't understand it, so no one stopped him from observing it.

"Then I discovered that the power of the female alien comes from the sacrifice." Qi Ya looked at Xiaojie and shrugged his shoulders.

"what?"

"It is recorded on the stele that the first group of Inhumans lived in another space, but they reached this time dimension by accident."

"Wait!——" Xiaojie only felt that he was in a fog, and his ears were only smoking. "What time dimension? Why can't I understand?"

Qi Ya felt that it was quite difficult for him. If Xiaojie wanted to listen, he had to explain it in more detail.So he continued to add: "To put it simply, they belong to different worlds from us, and the flow of time on the two sides is different. For example, a year in our world is equal to a day in that world; that is to say, I stay in that world. One day in the world, but a year has passed here, can you understand this?"

Xiaojie nodded, with sweat still on his face: "It's better to understand in this way."

"And the entrance that connects them with our world is called the space-time hole for short."

The early Inhumans lived in a peaceful and non-dangerous place, but the people there aged very quickly, and their longest-lived Inhumans could only live for more than 100 days; The aliens travel to live outside the cave, because here, they will not age so quickly.

But the world outside the cave is very harsh. Although they can have a longer lifespan, they are more likely to die.In order to ensure the continuation of their race, the aliens have been looking for a way. Finally, they used rune divination to obtain the conclusion of an equivalent exchange. From the perspective of the hexagram, one yin and one yang can only get one.That is to say: sacrifice must be used to obtain survivability; and judging from the final result, it is obvious that the female aliens survived.

Every female alien who kills a male alien will gain strength from the unwilling resentment of the other party, but a single gender also causes the interruption of reproduction, which also leads to the current situation of sacrifice to obtain babies.

"Their sacrificial models and runes are very similar to our vows and restrictions." When Qi Ya said this, he stared straight at Xiaojie.

"Qi Ya, do you mean that the secrets about the oath and restriction can be found here?" Xiaojie understood Qi Ya's eyes.

"I don't know, I'm still guessing. But their runes say that everything is relative; that space is a different existence from here, and from the existing clues, all the sacrifices are done here. Even after that, there will be no female aliens going to the time hole again. I think this should be abandoning the yang and choosing the yin, so the yin is here, and the yang is there, and the two are separated and cannot meet."

"When you say that, it becomes difficult to understand again, Qi Ya."

"...In short, my general guess is that the time hole will have an impact on sacrifices or oaths and restrictions. Because the Inhumans have separated Yin and Yang, they chose this side of the world, combining runes with Equivalent exchange has been brought into this world, so it is very likely that there is no rune and equivalent exchange in the time hole on the other side; that is to say, the transaction may be invalid over there, which is different from the rules here."

Xiaojie felt smoke coming out of his ears again, but he didn't understand.He shook his dizzy head, and simply brought the topic back to Yar.

"So what does Yar want you to do?"

"Oh, that, because of tonight's wedding, every couple must swear an oath in front of the runes on the sacrificial altar to prevent the other party from betraying." Qi Ya said, stretched out his palm, and then rubbed his fingertips Sharp nails protruded from the ground. "They found someone to make a substitute for me so that I could go to the sacrificial altar to change the runes in the morning when the aliens gather."

"That's it." Xiaojie nodded, now he understands why Qi Ya was not there before.

"There is one more thing I have to tell you about the deal between me and Yar."

"?"

"Actually, Pallistone and the others know about the sacrificial altar just now, but what I'm telling you now is something they don't know." Qi Ya looked around first, then lowered his voice and said: "Ah! I found the location of the time-space hole, and he wants me to lock Celidonish in the time-space hole."

"What?" Xiaojie didn't expect such a thing to happen.

"Well, I guess Yar has some personal grievances against him, but I don't know what it is. Yar didn't even tell Palliston about this, because they were afraid that those guys would want to explore time and space. So the three of us are the only ones who know about this, and Alta wants me to lure Chelidonish into the space-time hole, and then seal the exit."

"..." Xiaojie lowered his head and thought for a while, "Do you have a plan for this matter?" It is not easy to imprison Celidonish.

And Qi Ya didn't answer him, just looked at him quietly, which also made Xiaojie understand what Qi Ya's plan was.

"I see. So where is the space-time hole? Tell me the approximate location." After all, with Cheridonish's obsession with himself, Xiaojie is the best person to attract the other party.

"No, I will come to you at that time, and then I will take you there." Qi Ya touched his pocket and took out a small leather bag from it. "By the way, Yar also asked me to pass you a bag, but because it's too big, I'll bring it to you later in the evening."

"Bao?" Xiaojie frowned suspiciously at first, and then thought, "Is it the one that I was confiscated by Celidonish?"

"It's not clear, but I'll bring it to you at night."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you to come tonight."

"En." Qi Ya thought for a while, and then said: "I will take this rune away first, so as not to be discovered by your strange woman."

Qiya refers to the spell leaf given to Xiaojie before, which can temporarily block Celidonish's tattoo spell.After handing Qiya the leaf full of characters, Xiaojie watched Qiya's back disappear before his eyes.

[night? ...and don't know if everything is going well. ]

As for how to let Celidonish enter the space-time hole, Xiaojie is not sure how sure Qiya is, and now he can only take one step at a time.

Daisy came in when the sky was approaching dusk. Her face was not very good at the moment, and her face was a little gloomy.When seeing Daisy, Xiaojie's mood is also very complicated. After all, Xiaojie thinks Daisy is also a good person during this period of getting along.

"Daisy, are you going to take me to the wedding?" Xiaojie stood up in embarrassment, feeling a little tangled in his heart.Although he didn't know what Pariston and the others would do to these aliens tonight, it was obviously not a good thing.

"Well, you come with me."

Walking out the door, there are pairs of long queues outside, it seems that they are all waiting for the wedding ceremony.

Daisy led Xiaojie towards the end of the team, and while walking, Xiaojie also saw Qi Ya, who was also in the team at the moment, with a female alien standing beside him.When the two passed by, Xiaojie could see Qi Ya staring at him, and he was also drumming in his heart for what he was going to do tonight.

The team was still moving very fast, but Daisy looked quite anxious, which made Xiaojie very puzzled. Although he really wanted to ask her what was wrong, but seeing her frown, Xiaojie was very sensible. There is no opening.

After the procession approached the altar, Xiaojie saw the so-called wedding ceremony.That was when the two of them bit their thumbs, and then covered them on the big stone full of runes. The ceremony was completed when the stone glowed.

At the beginning, Xiaojie didn't feel anything, but when the ceremony got closer and closer to Qi Ya's position, Xiao Jie felt that everything around him was ignored, leaving only Qi Ya's position.He watched Qi Ya walk up to the rune stone, watched Qi Ya bite his finger, and then covered it on the stone, and the rune lit up with a faint blue light in an instant, and then looked at Qi Ya smiled at others...

'Bump——touch———' The sound of the slow beating heart may be the only thing Xiaojie can hear at the moment, and that unhappy feeling hits again, and now he knows that feeling is a bit sour, like being beaten It's like soaking in lemon tea, making people struggle to find something to go up.

"Let's go, what are you waiting for?" Daisy's angry voice woke up Xiaojie, who knew when it was their turn.So Xiaojie bit his finger without saying a word, and then printed his thumb on the rune.But his mood was still a little messed up, and the faint blue light was just like what Qiya and the others reflected before, which reminded him.

[It turned out that I didn't want Qi Ya to marry someone else. ]

This sentence jumped out of my heart unexpectedly, and even he himself was shocked.

[But why? ]

Xiaojie subconsciously thought about it, and then he remembered that when he was imprisoned in the world that made him "enlighten" by Tres, Qi Ya there once said: [Because we have a girlfriend, we can't always together. 】

[Is it because of this? ]

But at that time, I felt that sooner or later, each other would have their own family, so I didn't care...

[So, what's going on? ]

"Okay, you go back to the house first, I will come later." Daisy led Xiaojie to the door of the house, and was about to leave, Xiaojie entered the house without thinking too much.

He began to think, what is the strange emotion in his heart recently?This is a feeling I have never had before, as if it first appeared in the world created by Tres, when Chiya was holding his hand...

[I don’t understand, what exactly is this feeling of nothingness? ]
