[Infinite Stream] Destiny Rubik's Cube
Chapter 84
"Sorry, you can find someone else."
Xu Chi coldly declined.
The light of anticipation in the boy's eyes was quickly extinguished.
He wriggled his lips and wanted to say something more, but the unreasonable tall and thin man had already turned his head away.
This undersea city full of ghosts is really big enough.
Xu Chi kept shuttling among the ruins, paying close attention to every figure that passed him by.I have to admit that sometimes when you insist on looking for something, that naughty thing just decides not to show up.
More than half of an hour passed quickly, and Xu Chi had gone too far and had to return without success.
During the whole process of searching, the boy followed silently, not far or near.
Xu Chi stopped and looked over with probing eyes. He immediately awkwardly shoved half of his body into the shadow of the telephone pole.
Xu Chi didn't move, he wanted to see what the other party wanted to do after following him.He had clearly rejected his request.
Probably sensing Xu Chi's displeasure, the boy poked his head out slowly, hesitated for nearly half a minute, and finally floated up to him on his own initiative, and whispered, "Sir, are you looking for someone?"
Xu Chi was noncommittal.
"The wedding will be held soon." The boy lowered his head, consciously explaining the motivation of his actions, "I'm afraid you won't be able to find a bride at that time. I, I can be, as a backup."
After speaking, he blushed.
Xu Chi didn't expect that the other party would finally look him squarely out of kindness and raised his eyebrows: "You know me?"
Xu Chi took the initiative to speak, the boy was flattered and stumbled when he spoke.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Xu. I happened to be at the scene when you, you and your partner punished those bad guys that day. You made us angry for us that day. It was so satisfying!" The boy showed admiration, eyes It was bright, and after a few seconds, it suddenly dimmed again, "My teammate was beaten to death by those beasts, but I couldn't avenge her, I was really useless. So...so, thank you Already!"
The boy bowed suddenly, a standard ninety degrees.
Xu Chi lowered his eyes and saw his clenched fists by his side.
"What's your name?" Xu Chi asked suddenly.
"My name is Han Yang, sir." The boy got up and answered quickly.
"Han Yang." Xu Chi walked around him without raising his head, "How old is it?"
"I'm seventeen this year, sir." Han Yang's light tone was filled with unexpected surprises.
"Then you and one of my nieces should be able to chat very well. You are about the same age. What are you still doing, time is running out, let's go."
Han Yang recovered from his astonishment. Xu Chi had already walked three meters away. He quickly calmed down his excitement and stumbled to keep up.
With 5 minutes left in the one-hour period, the square was already packed with people.
Those who have not found a bride or groom are anxiously circling around the periphery, and if they catch a single one, they will be entangled for a long time.
Han Yang followed Xu Chi's side. Although Xu Chi's aura was [-] meters, as long as the color of his bracelet didn't change, some warriors would have the courage to step forward and ask.
"Brother, are you going to match the bride you brought?" Someone fell in love with Han Yang.
Xu Chi was looking for Zhou Qi's shadow everywhere, when he heard the voice denied, "No."
When the visitor heard this, he immediately took off his hat and asked Han Yang's opinion: "Brother, if you don't mind, can we make do?"
Han Yang is also in a hurry at the moment. The wedding is about to be held as the pastor said. No one knows what will happen to the single order. Out of the instinct of self-preservation, he wants to complete the match as soon as possible.But Xu Chi didn't seem to have this idea, and he was in a dilemma for a while.
Is the great hero planning to die in this level?
"Mr. Xu..."
"You match him." Xu Chi interrupted him, "Don't worry about me."
The ten-second countdown begins.
Five, four, three...
"Brother, don't you want to live?" The uncle waiting at the side was like an ant on a hot pot, circling in situ against the shiny Mediterranean Sea.
Han Yang gritted his teeth: "Live, of course you have to live."
He quickly exchanged bracelets with that elder brother, and at the last second of the countdown, his bracelet finally turned into a safe transparent color.
At the end of the countdown, there was a long and clear sound of "Di——", which sounded like a warning before a time bomb detonated.
Everyone held their breath for a moment, and all the remaining single dogs stood blankly, staring at the screen with bloodshot eyes, desperately waiting for the death sentence.
The cheerful wedding march sounded from all around, and the screen was divided into neat nine grids, and each grid was a pair of anxious "newcomers" faces.
The grid keeps turning, and the faces of newcomers are constantly changing.
After three seconds, the screen freezes.
Nine pairs of selected "newcomers" were freshly released.
"Yeah." There was a suppressed exclamation from behind.
Xu Chi raised his eyes and found the lucky Han Yang and his temporary partner in the lower left corner of the screen.
The noisy discussions are like a large group of aphids secretly eating vegetable leaves, rustling.
The nine couples and eighteen faces on the screen all showed puzzled and terrified expressions—after all, no one knows why the camera randomly captured them.
"Now, the wedding begins." The pastor's old but joyful voice resounded through the square, and the sound waves penetrated the sea water and reached everyone's earworms, "Let us bless these nine destined couples. But before a happy marriage can be concluded, there must be Only after going through some small trials can people learn to cherish."
Everyone's heart skipped a beat.
As soon as the words fell, the nine grooms on the screen blushed at the same time.
Their eyes widened in unison, their bloodshot eyeballs popping out of their sockets, as if their throats were being pinched by a pair of invisible hands.They were terrified, their faces quickly turned from red to purple, and then quickly turned gray and withered, their eyes were turned up, and their dark red tongues were squeezed out of their mouths. People saw that their necks were shrunk to half of their original size, and their entire body was stretched. The ground was stretched until it was separated from the shoulders and separated from the body, and a pile of internal organs were suspended to the sky.
The crowd rioted.
Cursing sounded one after another.
"Ah—" Han Yang covered his eyes and shouted suppressedly.
The camera on the screen immediately switched to close-ups of the nine brides' faces.
Each of them looked like they had seen a ghost. Some of them cried with their eyes closed, some were so frightened that their eyes were glazed over, and some complained loudly.
"Didn't you tell us to match? Ah? Now that we've matched, what are we going to do now? If we want to play to death, we can just do it directly. There's no need to beat around the bush and torture people like this!"
After the man yelled, he stared forward with his eyes tearing apart, with a look of generosity.
Everyone thought the chosen brides were doomed.
Like their poor groom.
But they are not dead.
A line of text is displayed on the screen.
"Because the bride he matched was not of high quality, the groom died during the wedding. The list of victims is announced below."
It even used the three ridiculous words "victim".
It seems that the groom will die because of the unqualified bride.
The man who had just yelled was completely dumbfounded. He stared blankly at the fallen corpse beside him, and the head was floating beside him, staring at him coldly with staring eyes.He let out a painful whimper and fell to his knees, weeping.
People are indeed strange creatures, they have moral consciousness, they will feel sad for the death of their companions, and they will feel remorse and self-blame for the death of their companions because of themselves.
"You're right, sir." Han Yang sat paralyzed in the blood, his absent-minded pupils trembling, "Thank God, you didn't match me, I, I'm not qualified... I killed innocent people..."
"You didn't kill him." Xu Chi's eyebrows sank into a deep crease, "Don't be overwhelmed by the guilt imposed on you by the enemy."
Han Yang shook his head and said nothing more.
Xu Chi knew that he wouldn't listen to what he said right now.
After reporting the nine names, the wedding was temporarily suspended.
The pastor's annoying face appeared on the screen again, and the vicious mouth opened and closed: "In an hour, the wedding will restart again. Dear grooms, go find the best quality bride, and only the best quality other." Only half of it can continue your life."
After speaking, the screen turned into a snowflake.
After three seconds of silence in the square, the atmosphere suddenly boiled like boiling hot water.
"High quality? What exactly is considered high quality?"
"I don't know what it means to be high-quality, but I have obviously shown you what is not high-quality just now."
"Then I understand, no matter men or women, we have to find strong, tall and mighty ones."
"I agree."
After the discussion, the grooms all looked at the partners around them by coincidence, and for a while, the beeping sound of the bracelet when the match was canceled could be heard endlessly.
Many brides who appeared to be weak and slender at first glance were abandoned one after another.
As for brides like Han Yang who have been disqualified, no one cares.
But Xu Chi still took him by his side.
Everyone is racking their brains trying to find a high-quality bride to save their lives, but after all, high-quality brides account for a small proportion, and it is so difficult to find that it develops to the point where you can see a few or even a dozen grooms begging around a bride for almost two steps. Matching pomp.
Xu Chi's face was serious, and he had a bad feeling.
"Sir, are you looking for your partner named Zhou?" Han Yang said melancholy behind him.
Xu Chi's "um" slipped out of his throat.
Han Yang showed a clear expression, and then expressed worry: "But your partner looks very powerful, obviously a high-quality bride, and must be very sought-after."
Xu Chi: "..." This young man is very good at picking which pot he can't open.
Han Yang: "Will Mr. Zhou match someone else in advance?"
"No, he won't."
Xu Chi is not worried that Zhou Qi will be matched with others without saying anything, what he is worried about is that Zhou Qi will be forcibly matched.Just now on the road, he had already seen that the level of violence in the competition among grooms was constantly escalating. Many high-quality brides were unwilling to match with strangers.The bracelet forms an oxygen-supplying film, and being robbed of the bracelet is equivalent to being robbed of the oxygen cylinder they depend on for survival in the deep sea, so they had to give in and were forced to agree to exchange the bracelets to complete the match.
Of course Zhou Qi is very strong, this is an indisputable fact, but there is always a contingency in everything, if he is robbed by a stronger boss, Xu Chi has to be responsible for snatching him back.
Xu Chi felt a dull pain in his temple.
This time, Xu Chi decided not to go anywhere, so he squatted in the square and guarded.The pastor didn't stipulate that he had to return to the square once the one-hour deadline was up, but almost everyone consciously abided by this rule, so Zhou Qifang should also return to the square among the crowd.
People are scattered now, but not too far away.
This facilitated Xu Chi's search.
Soon, he had a goal.
On the southeast corner of the square, there was a huge circle of people, cheering and applauding.
Out of a strange premonition, Xu Chi's right eyelid twitched violently.
He floated over, pushed aside the crowd, and the first thing he saw was a domineering old man squatting on the head of a stone lion with one leg missing.The grandpa wore a dazzling red agate bracelet on his right wrist. Judging from his extraordinary height and muscular lines that were clearly visible even through his clothes, he was undoubtedly the most high-quality bride that grooms flocked to.
"Oh, that's not..." Han Yang pointed to the person squatting on the stone lion, and looked back at Xu Chi, wanting to confirm.
Xu Chi was expressionless and had nothing to say.
The bride looked around arrogantly, hooked the corners of her lips, and shamelessly blew the whistle to start a new round of competition.
In front of the stone lion, two strong men were competing... wrestling their arms?
Xu Chimu said with a straight face: "..."
I heard from the onlookers around me that whoever wins the arm wrestling will be eligible to match the lofty "Queen". Moreover, this arm wrestling is a round-the-clock battle, anyone can do it if they want to, Whoever survives to the end wins.So the men who claimed to be somewhat brute consciously lined up in a long line, all gearing up and eager to try, and at a glance, there were even a few fierce women among them.
What's the matter, let's put it here for a martial arts competition to recruit relatives?
Xu Chi really didn't know what expression to put on.
Xu Chi understood that he had to do this because he wanted to amplify his presence so that he could be found at a glance, but this battle was a bit too big.
After observing for a while with his arms folded, and after struggling with the idea of "what am I trying to figure out, it doesn't have to be like this, I really don't need to do this to this extent", Admiral Xu took a deep breath silently, and went to the end of the line .
It seems that the wife is too good, and it is really a stressful thing for the husband.
Xu Chi coldly declined.
The light of anticipation in the boy's eyes was quickly extinguished.
He wriggled his lips and wanted to say something more, but the unreasonable tall and thin man had already turned his head away.
