Abyss Notes [Unlimited]

Fan Xing counted his fingers one by one.

"Xiao Chu, four-handed, six-legged, black-eared..." He named them one by one, counting thirty, "That's right, I killed thirty."

Everyone stared at him blankly, Xie Bai: "You... how do you know the name? Can you and the Reaper... communicate?"

Fan Xing: "No, I started it myself."

Everyone: "..."

"It's easy to remember. In case someone asks about it later, I will recall it with reason." Fan Xing smiled, "Otherwise, it will be bad if people misunderstand it as a lie."

He crossed his fingers, leaned on the back of the chair, and looked at Xie Bai with a smile: "You know that there are 36 harvesters in the Pride Plain, and you also know that [-] died at my hands. You are not simple either."

Yu Zhou also felt strange.According to the image of the reaper described by Ji Chunyue and them, everyone avoids it for fear. How does Xie Bai know the exact number of reapers?And why is there such a specific amount?The Reapers are roaming the continent of Praser and shouldn't stay in the same place all the time.

Xie Bai replied calmly: "You have just arrived, and there may be many things that are not clear enough. There are a total of eighteen adventurer camps on the Praser Continent, and the reapers are evenly distributed based on these eighteen adventurer camps. Arrogant The original climate is harsh, and adventurers are generally unwilling to stay here for a long time. We stay here to protect the new adventurers. In order to live in peace, we have found out the number of harvesters on the Pride Plain."

Xu Qingyuan, who hadn't spoken much all this time, spoke, still his habitual action, and put his finger on the fisherman's hat on his head.

"It's not so much an adventurer's camp, it's more like a reaper's cafeteria." He sneered, "The Cage Master of Praser Continent wants to maintain a balance between adventurers and reapers, so that you can kill each other. Cage Master I like watching plays."

Xie Bai did not deny it.He nodded subtly: "Our ultimate goal is to kill the cage master and get out of here."

He looked at Fan Xing: "If you kill so many harvesters at once, it will arouse the vigilance of the cage master, which is very bad for us."

Fan Xing: "You want to kill the cage owner, but I will help lead the cage owner to the place of arrogance, what's wrong with that?"

Xie Bai: "You destroyed our overall deployment."

Fan Xing: "There are so many people here—" He got up and looked around the restaurant. There were thirty or forty adventurers in the restaurant, all staring at Xie Bai and Fan Xing, "Everyone is entitled to know your overall plan? "

He hit it off.

There are many adventurers in the camp, and everyone respects Ji Chunyue, Wen Feng, and Xie Bai.But respect has become an obstacle, and levels have been created. Xie Bai, Ji Chunyue and others will not tell everyone the plan.

People looked left and right, whispered to each other, and the buzzing sounded like a wave.

Xie Bai leaned on the back of his chair: "In the camp, all of us perform our duties. Only by uniting can we survive the siege of the Reapers. You just came here, so you may not be very clear about it, but let me go I have been all over the Praser Continent, and I can be sure that there is no such united camp on the Praser Continent.”

The discussion gradually died down.Someone said: Yes, we listened to Teacher Xie Bai.

"I also listened to Teacher Xie Bai." Fan Xing said with a smile, "I hunted the Reapers outside, and it was really hard. I always wanted to know, how did you avoid the Reapers when you traveled around the entire Prase continent? Completely complete Whole, handsome and unrestrained, not hurt or broken, really powerful."

Xie Bai: "I have my way."

Fan Xing: "What method?"

Xie Bai: "The Reapers have an overwhelming advantage against ordinary humans. How did you hunt and kill [-] Reapers in three days and only suffer such a small injury?"

Fan Xing smiled brightly.He stretched himself: "I'm sleepy, go back to sleep."

Xie Bai stared at his back with burning eyes.When Yu Zhou stood up, he asked, "Yu Zhou, who is that person?"

Yu Zhou: "Partners who fell into the 'trap' together."

Xie Bai was taken aback: "...I remember you said that you walked through three 'birdcages', and Prase was the fourth one. Have you been with him all this time?"

Yu Zhou learned something from the confrontation between Fan Xing and Xie Bai just now.

He lowered his head and said to Xie Bai: "Compared with me, are you more interested in him?"

Xie Bai was stunned, as if he didn't expect Yu Zhou to bypass the question like this and blur the point.

Before he answered, Yu Zhou had already turned and left.

At the entrance of the restaurant, Fan Xing leaned against the railing and applauded lightly.

Yu Zhou and him exchanged a look, and the two couldn't hold back their smiles, and silently exchanged many tacit words.

"I'm really curious about Xie Bai." Fan Xing followed behind him, "It's too contrived."

Yu Zhou: "Are you not pretending?"

Fan Xing put his arm on his shoulder, and leaned very close: "We have lived and died together for so long, and you still scold me."

Yu Zhou: "Xie Bai has always talked and acted like this. He is very smart and sensitive."

They walked past flowering neem trees, the paths were covered with small lilac flowers, and a slightly bitter refreshing smell hung in the camp like a mist.In winter, I didn't know that there were so many neem trees here, and I didn't know how it could withstand the bitter cold.After entering summer, the flowers bloom quickly and wither quickly, and the emerald green leaves spread like feathers on the top of the head.

Fan Xing kicked the petals under his feet: "You have filters for Xie Bai."

Yu Zhou: "...where did you learn the words?"

Fan Xing: "Jiang Xiao taught it."

Yu Zhou: "He is in the past tense, I don't."

Fan Xing let go of him, and walked slowly behind him.Yu Zhou has been sleeping restlessly for the past few nights because of taking care of Fan Xing, his hair is messed up and his ears are sticky like a cat's.

It feels soft to the touch.

"..." Yu Zhou avoided his hand, "What are you doing?"

Fan Xing smiled and changed the topic: "Are there any hints in the Diary of the Abyss?"

The notebook is still blank, no matter how I turn it, there is only information on the first three pages.

When Fan Xing was in a coma and didn't believe it, Yu Zhou and the others had already read the diary many times.Couldn't find any references.

"I think we've all made a mistake." Yu Zhou said, "The note is not a reminder at all. It's actually guiding us to the necessary birdcage."

Wujiao Town fished out An Liu's body and revived it.

An Liu's heart was dug out from Arga's kingdom.

In Fu Yuncong's city, Fan Xing devoured An Liu's heart, Yu Zhou saw the will of the "gap", and Jiang Xiao got Hu Weiwei's message.

"...It brought us to the Praser Continent, what will we get and see?" Yu Zhou muttered to himself.

Fan Xing: "Let you and Xie Bai meet again."

Yu Zhou was annoyed: "Can you stop bringing the topic to him?"

He really didn't want to discuss Xie Bai with others, especially Fan Xing, so he took his notes and strode away.Fan Xing held his wrist tightly: "I have a reason."

Yugan poked his head out from Yu Zhou's hood: "What's the reason?"

Fan Xing: "...When did you start eavesdropping?"

Yugan: "I was there from the beginning!"

Fan Xing grabbed it and threw it aside, and continued, "I hunted and killed so many Reapers for a reason."

Fan Xing, who was trying to cross the river and head to the other direction of the Arrogant Plain, met the Harvester on the way.

The first reaper, he named it Xiaochu.

Fan Xing smelled an extremely familiar smell from it.

This taste comes from the will of "Gap", which is the "mother" of him and An Liu.

The smell is very faint.After Fan Xing killed Xiao Chu, he watched Xiao Chu reveal the human skeleton inside the reaper.

He understood: it was not the mother's smell, but the Land Cage of Praser, the other child's smell.

The child drives the Reaper, and the Reaper carries its breath.

"Mother is looking for... An Liu." Fan Xing said, "I can't let the cage owner find out that An Liu and I have come here. The reaper may send a message to it. All the Reapers around are wiped out."

Yu Zhou: "If we want to get close to the cage master, we have to leave the Pride Field and go north. We will still meet new harvesters."

Fan Xing: "One sentence of Xie Bai's nonsense is correct. Killing so many harvesters will definitely attract the attention of the cage master. We don't have to leave the arrogance field, we just need to attract it."

Yu Zhou: "..." He quietly looked at Fan Xing, lowered his head and smiled, "You are very similar to Xie Bai."

These words were like a match, igniting Fan Xing's temper: "How can I be like him!"

"You talk nicely, but you have too many secrets in your heart." Yu Zhou said, "You don't regard other people as your partners. You would rather do such a dangerous thing alone than tell us. .”

Fan Xing's anger dissipated, he scratched his chin, and quickly said, "It won't happen next time."

It was so fast that Yu Zhou couldn't hear clearly: "Next time?"

Fan Xing: "At least not to you."

Yu Zhou: "I'm an exception?"

Fan Xing: "Aren't you happy being an exception?"

After sneezing, Yu Zhou rubbed his nose and continued walking.The two of them didn't speak, they just faced Xiao Hua'er and smiled lightly at an angle that the other party couldn't see.

That night, Xie Bai came to the restaurant again and made a special trip to find Yu Zhou.

Yu Zhou and Jiang Xiao followed Ji Chunyue to the Arrogant Plain, only to find out that Fan Xing had gone out with Xie Bai when they came back.He was in a hurry and hurried to catch up.After walking two alleys, I heard footsteps behind me, and it was Ji Chunyue who followed.

"I'm familiar with Mr. Xie Bai. If Fan Xing quarrels with him, I can help talk it out." Ji Chunyue said.

They walked side by side on the stone-paved street, and the night wind blew down more and more neem flowers.Ji Chunyue said with a smile: "Wenfeng and I also have a lot of neem trees in our hometown. From April to May, the streets and alleys are full of neem flowers."

Yu Zhou spread out his hand and grabbed it casually, and there were three or four small flowers in his palm.He remembered that Jiujiu also liked to catch flowers like this. She would use neem flowers to pile up small hills, put the plush ducklings on the keychains on them, and pretend to hatch eggs.

"I like summer in Plasse the most," Ji Chunyue said, "It's too similar to my hometown."

Yu Zhou suddenly just wanted to move forward slowly with Ji Chunyue, whether it was Fan Xing or Xie Bai, everyone was not important anymore.When he looked at Ji Chunyue, Ji Chunyue happened to be looking at him and smiling.

"I'm sorry, Yu Zhou." She said, "Wen Feng did something wrong last time, I apologize to you."

"You've said it many times." Yu Zhou shook his head, "I'm fine."

Ji Chunyue asked him if there were other people in his family, and Yu Zhou talked about Jiu Jiu.

After being in the birdcage for so long, Yu Zhou saw unexpected expressions on other people's faces for the first time.Ji Chunyue was relieved and sad at the same time: "She is so young! How can this be done? You must go back!"

Yu Zhou's chest felt hot: "You also believe that you can go back?"

Ji Chunyue said firmly: "Of course."

She took Yu Zhou's hand: "Our lives must go on. Everything that happened here is just a nightmare. Take care of yourself, look for opportunities, and we will all go home."

No one had encouraged him like this.Yu Zhou suspected countless times that he might be the only one in the "birdcage" who firmly believed that he could go back and was not afraid of being ridiculed by others.Ji Chunyue's words gave him courage, made his eyes warm and his throat choked.

Ji Chunyue quietly watched him cry, and asked him, "Who named Jiu Jiu?"

Yu Zhou was vague: "It's me. I hope she... lives a long time."

"Okay, that's great." Ji Chunyue held his hand and encouraged him softly, "She must be waiting for her brother to come home."

The things that had accumulated in Yu Zhou's heart since he fell into the "trap" suddenly became much easier.He stopped his tears and kept nodding, but couldn't say a word.

He wanted to hug Ji Chunyue, as if hugging him for a long time.

The moonlight was clear, Fan Xing and Xie Bai were talking on the small bridge.

Yu Zhou subconsciously stopped.Both he and Ji Chunyue heard Xie Bai's voice.

"He's like a cup." Xie Bai's thumb and middle finger framed the height of a small wine glass, "You should have seen it before. A very small glass can only hold a sip of wine at most."

He was smiling as usual, with a mouth that could say the sweetest words on that handsome face.

"Such a little wine glass that needs only a little love to fill it up."

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Fan Xing threw the dried fish under the neem tree and buried himself with flower petals.

It waits for Yu Zhou to come to him distressed and nervous.

Unexpectedly, when I woke up, it was still buried by flowers.

Yugan returned to the restaurant, rolled around with Jiang Xiao and the others and lost his temper, biting anyone he saw.

Jiang Xiao: Fan Xing, Yu Zhou!Take care of your children!
