【Windless】Wan Muchun

Injured this time, Feng Xi stayed in the hospital for more than half a month, and it was already winter when he returned to Longyou.I don't know whether it's because of lingering fears or the ban imposed by the guild hall. For a long time, Infinity didn't take him out on missions.However, training related to martial arts was quickly put on the agenda. Feng Xijuan never thought that one day he would be able to receive personal guidance from the strongest executor, but the instinctive reactions trained in previous battles were extremely difficult to control.He pretended to be painstakingly exhausted, and every time he finished practice, he was really tired to the point of paralysis.

It was the same this time, after Wu Wu received the email from the guild hall, he called Xiao Hei to take care of Feng Xi as usual.The three of them went to the stall downstairs to have breakfast together, and Wu Zhi ate the fastest, raising his head with a hesitant expression.Feng Xi continued to suck the soy milk, but Xiao Hei raised his head: "Master, what's wrong?"

"His remaining two companions, Xu Huai and Ahe, were judged to be qualified in last week's evaluation, and they all passed the second inspection." Infinite shifted his gaze to Feng Xi, as if hesitating, and after a while Finish the rest of the sentence, "The two of them, and the other elf who voluntarily stayed with him, can leave Frozen Cloud City this morning. Do you... want to go and see them?"

Feng Xi tilted his head slightly, showing a puzzled expression: "I don't know them."

"None of them like the guild hall. It's hard to say when we will meet when we leave this time." Infinity considered his words, "Although you don't know them, those three people should really want to see you... After all, that wind breath, an important companion to them."

"A person who leaves everything behind to die is no important companion." Feng Xi buried his face in the bowl again, "I don't want to go."

"...That's fine." Infinity patted the top of his head, "During the few days I'm not here, you have to practice hard with Xiao Hei."

"Yeah!" Feng Xi nodded obediently, at an angle that no one was paying attention to, a dim fire light slowly lit up in those dark purple demon pupils.

After Wu Wu left, Feng Xi stayed at home with Xiao Hei.When it was almost noon, Feng Xi walked up to Xiao Hei and said coquettishly, "I want to eat the food made by Xiao Hei!"

"Okay, what do you want to eat?"

Feng Xi randomly reported the names of two dishes, and Xiao Hei summed up the vegetables he bought the day before, and responded with a smile, put on his apron and walked into the kitchen.Not long after, the pots and pans jingled, Feng Xi jumped off the sofa, turned on the TV, and walked to the table lightly.

There are three sets of cups side by side on the cup holder against the wall of the dining table, which are souvenirs brought back from a certain trip, and are painted with patterns of flowers and birds.Feng Xi stared at them for a while, then tiptoed and took the green one off.

It seemed to be an ordinary meal, but just halfway through the meal, Xiao Hei suddenly felt numb in his fingertips, and the chopsticks in his hands slipped to the ground uncontrollably, Feng Xi raised his head nervously: "Xiao Hei?"

"I... feel dizzy..."

Xiao Hei pressed his forehead, only looking at the twisted and intertwined wood grains on the dining table, like a living thing.But Feng Xi didn't speak again, Xiao Hei finally sensed something was wrong, he clenched his teeth and mobilized his spiritual quality, the iron piece wrapped around his forearm suddenly flew up, clasping the opponent's hands on the table.In the blurred vision, the little child didn't resist, just looked at him quietly.

They didn't stand in a stalemate for too long, the iron sheet loosened quickly and feebly, and the boy's body limply slid off the chair.Feng Xi broke free from the shackles, walked to his side, and stretched out his hand to help him, preventing him from falling directly to the ground.Xiao Hei leaned against Feng Xi's arms, with a pair of green cat eyes wide open, staring at him without blinking.

"Little black."

Feng Xi opened his mouth softly, it was obviously still that immature face, but his expression and temperament were completely different.Xiao Hei opened his mouth, and his numb lips and tongue barely formed a broken sentence: "We... didn't even notice..." He seemed to want to laugh, but he only made a short breath, "As expected... Wind Breath... "

The vision became more and more blurred, as if separated by a layer of hazy water.Xiao Hei raised his hand tremblingly, and gently touched Feng Xi's face, as if to confirm the existence of the other party: "I am now... living a good life, I know... many fairies, and I have made human friends ...I've also seen...hating humans..."

Those dark purple eyes flickered slightly, but Feng Xi still didn't say anything, even though Xiao Hei's fingers stroked his forehead and bridge of nose inch by inch, he finally lost all strength and drooped down.

"I often... think of you, and finally... understand you a little..." Xiao Hei's voice was as soft as a whisper, "But I still feel...that...is not right..."

Feng Xi stretched out his hand gently, almost gently, covering the other party's slack eyes.He could feel the eyelashes in his palm trembling slightly, like butterfly wings struggling in a spider web, finally closing reluctantly.

"Feng Xi...don't go..." Xiao Hei's voice became weaker and weaker, warm tears wet Feng Xi's palm, "We... together... find another way... okay..."

The boy finally lost consciousness completely, Feng Xi put his hands under his armpits, and moved him to the bed in the bedroom with great effort. With a "snap", the phone in Xiao Hei's pocket fell to the ground. Feng Xi first shook off the quilt to help him cover it, then leaned over to pick up the phone, and swipe the screen skillfully to unlock it.

Unsurprisingly, the lit interface stayed on the chat with Infinity. The time was half an hour ago, Xiao Hei took a picture of the pork ribs that had just been cooked, and Infinity replied simply and concisely with two words, "Not bad".

Feng Xi's finger was hanging on the input box, intending to imitate the news that Xiao Hei Fatiao went out to go shopping, just in case Wu Zhi called back.However, Xiao Hei hadn't learned to read for a long time, and he didn't know much or know how to write. Feng Xi wasn't sure how he would usually speak, so he went up and looked up the chat records between the two, but was stunned for a while——

Feng Xi ate a whole plate of scrambled eggs for lunch.

Feng Xi is regarded as a girl by neighbors.

Feng Xi doesn't want to gather spirits today.

Feng Xi despises me. One dungeon milked him to death three times.

The small tree that Fengxi spawned this time was one meter high.

Feng Xi fell asleep.

Feng Xi said he missed you.

……

There are so many things, no matter how big or small, Feng Xi only felt that his chest was congested, so he couldn't help but put down the phone, raised his head and took a deep breath.However, as far as the eye can see, there are traces of his own life everywhere in this apartment, whether it is the group photo of the three on the desk, the brightly colored children's clothes in the closet, the potted plants on the window sill, the horizontal line on the door frame that records the height... And on the wall beside the bed, several rows of "Stop the Wind and Sand" medallions were neatly hung, with a rough circular iron piece interspersed among them. The pattern on it could barely be seen to be a tree, with An ugly word "wind".

After Xiao Hei was brought down, there was no suspense in the next escape.Just like what Feng Xi had simulated in his mind countless times, he first called a car to send himself to the station, quickly changed his clothes, and then used the innocent smiling face of a child as a guise to get on the train among the passengers.After the car left the station, he climbed from the narrow window of the toilet to the roof of the car, jumped off at the fifth switch, and climbed onto another car that passed by 10 minutes later.In this way, Feng Xi left Longyou silently in a completely human way without using any spiritual energy.

This plan is simple but effective. It will take at least one day for Xiao Hei to wake up. Even if he turns back infinitely early, if he wants to find his whereabouts, he will definitely need the intervention of the guild hall.And Feng Xi is most familiar with the search and arrest process of the guild hall. He is a goblin, so he must first look for suspicious psychic fluctuations by the perceiver. When this method is ineffective, he will seek the help of human technology.However, even if the guild hall tracked me on a certain train based on the camera, it would take longer to find out where I changed trains.

According to the pre-planned route, Feng Xi spent the night in the wilderness and on the roof of the car, and traveled to Rongtian in the neighboring province.This is a desolate town, located in the blank area between Longyou Guild Hall and Anxin Guild Hall, away from the monitoring of the perceivers.Back then, when they were fleeing from arrest, a portal was set up here as a backup exit.

Although five years have passed, Feng Xi estimated that the portal is still there.He is familiar with this kind of spells, even if his current spiritual power is low, it is not difficult to modify the location of the other end-although he has not even figured out where to go or what to do until now, he just instinctively wants to escape, escape from those The tenderness and kindness he shouldn't have enjoyed, escaped from the increasingly weak and slack self in the human city.

The weather in Longyou is still dry and cold, the first snow has fallen in Rongtian, and the eastern sky is faintly white.Just as Feng Xi jumped off the train, he staggered and fell to the ground.At this time, he realized belatedly that he had not eaten water or rested for a whole day, and if his tense nerves were slightly relaxed, his body as a cub would no longer be able to hold on.

Feng Xi gasped for a moment in the snow, not daring to delay for too long, and ran towards the abandoned mine behind the town based on his memory.His guess was correct, the portal set up back then is still there.The mottled stone slabs were hidden among the withered vines, inspired by the spiritual power he released, slowly glowing with light golden light.

At this moment, Feng Xi suddenly sensed that someone was approaching, and before he could turn around, there was the sound of sharp wind coming quickly.He subconsciously blocked it with his backhand, and the branch turned into a long sword in his palm, and the huge recoil made his wrist sore.

At the moment of his self-defense, another brilliant brilliance passed by and inserted into the center of the portal impartially.The magic circle instantly turned into pieces of light, and the ancient stone slabs shattered at the same time. Feng Xi raised his head in disbelief, and saw a figure that should never appear here——

unlimited.

In the mighty mountain wind, the strongest executor is like a god descending in person, with long hair and robes hunting.He stepped through the first snow in the forest, and the long sword in his hand was shining coldly: "Fengxi, can't you stay for a day?"

The powerful oppression was like a tangible seawater coming around, which made Feng Xi feel suffocated for a while.He subconsciously wanted to back up, but his back only touched the broken and cold stone slab of the portal.

When there was no way to retreat, Feng Xi gritted his teeth and stretched out his left hand, holding his sore right wrist, maintaining the defensive posture with the tip of the sword forward.However, this did not act as a deterrent. Infinity still walked up to him step by step, and his expressionless face was full of anger and disappointment at the moment: "Your appeal, the home and freedom you want, the efforts of the guild, Human kindness—haven't you seen it all?!"

"how do you……"

Feng Xi's mind was in chaos, but the question that came out of his mouth suddenly stopped.Whether it's tracking all the way or doing tricks in advance, how infinitely catches up with him is not the point - the real point is why he came to chase him.

If his escape was a round from beginning to end... Feng Xi felt that he was being swallowed by great fear, but he still held on to his spirit and asked word by word: "My three companions, are you really allowed to leave?" Is Frozen Cloud City gone?"

"No." Infinite's answer was cold and decisive, "Xu Huai and Ahe still failed to pass the assessment last week."

Feng Xi only felt dizzy for a moment, almost relying on the stone slab behind his body to support his body so as not to fall.The reason why he dared to escape was that all his companions were released. Even if he didn't intend to look for them, it was almost ironclad proof that he still had plans in the guild hall's view.What's more, if the two people's evaluations fail, it means that there is still no compromise with the guild hall. If he, the mastermind, is resurrected from the dead, he will be able to sleep peacefully next to the couch.

This is a completely desperate situation, Feng Xi bit the tip of his tongue fiercely, and forced himself to calm down with pain: "Infinity... my lord, I didn't do anything."

However, Unlimited just looked at him and shook his head: "Can't you do it?"

Feng Xi was speechless, only in this matter, he could not defend himself, nor could he win the trust of Infinity.After a moment of silence, he could only say again: "My escape has nothing to do with them."

"This requires the judgment of the guild hall."

"Then, will their sentences be extended because of me?"

"When you get back to the guild hall, you can ask yourself." Unlimited looked at him condescendingly, with several iron plates hanging in the air, looking ready to go, "Or do you want to try to escape?"

"unlimited……"

Feng Xi's voice trembled.The last time Infinity saw such a desperate expression on his face was at the end of the Longyou battle, when Xiao Hei closed the domain.

This time he didn't make unnecessary pleas, but remained silent for a long time, with only the mountain wind whimpering between them.Finally, Feng Xi stopped trembling bit by bit, let go of his hand, and let the wooden sword fall into the snow: "I understand."

He slowly lowered his eyelashes, and even smiled, "Master Unlimited, if you have a chance to see them in the future, please say sorry for me."

——The sudden burst of psychic matter scattered away like flowing water, and the tender green branches and leaves sprouted from the snow suddenly.Feng Xi closed his eyes and fell backwards, allowing those new plants to wrap him up, but he chose to take the initiative to disperse the spirit again!

Infinity realized what he was going to do almost at the moment when the wind breath stimulated his spiritual power.The instinctive reaction was even faster than the whirling iron piece, he passed through the rapidly growing branches and leaves regardless, and sliced ​​the opponent's slender side neck with one palm.

The growth of the trees stopped, and he panted infinitely violently, and suddenly found that his hand holding the sword was trembling.Those long-lost self-blame, powerlessness, and even fear welled up in his heart, and the child's small figure gradually overlapped with the big monster in his memory. This was the second time he watched him die in front of him.

Feng Xi collapsed unconsciously among the bushes formed by his life, as if sleeping peacefully in a green tomb, with a tired and relieved look on his brows.

——He is always like this, paranoidly embarking on the path he thinks is right, never leaving any room for himself or others.
