Great Wilderness Alchemist

Chapter 2, Cause and Effect
Have you ever experienced the feeling of being frozen and then being pecked to death bit by bit?With every bite, there is no splash of flesh and blood, like a shattered ice sculpture, and one can clearly feel that one's body is shattering.But at the moment of shattering, it was frozen by the extreme cold.

The fairy's chest was beating violently.

She stared straight at the two round moons above her head, and the picture in her mind was still in the iron hook-like giant mouth pecking again and again, accompanied by piercing pain, her body muscles were like Twitching unconsciously as if remembering.

After a long time, she woke up suddenly.

——I'm not dead?

She sat up with a "swoosh" and touched her body reflexively, but she didn't find any terrible blood holes or stumps or broken arms.

I stretched out my hand again, and by the moonlight, it was obvious that this was a pair of healthy and intact hands. Although there were bloodstains on it, all the fingers were in the proper position, without breaks or wounds... …If she remembers correctly, her hand should have been broken!

Xianling pinched his face in disbelief, hiss, it hurts~
It's not a dream either!
what is happening?She was at a loss.

Rubbing her pinched face, she looked up at her surroundings.There was still white snow within sight, which covered the ground endlessly, and looked extraordinarily pale under the shroud of moonlight.

Seeing the snow, the fairy couldn't help recalling the desperately low temperature.That kind of cold is like maggots eating bone, penetrating into the bones along the skin, and finally the whole body is frozen in ice.

However, now she doesn't feel any cold. If it wasn't for the blood on her hands and clothes reminding her that everything that happened before was real, she would have thought it was a nightmare.

After a moment of sluggishness, the fairy got up from the snow, and she stared at the abnormally bright sky at night.If she just guessed that she might have traveled through time before, then she is now very sure that this is not the earth, and it is impossible for the earth to have two moons.

……

Xianling has always been an atheist. In her opinion, it is too unbelievable that such a thing as time travel would happen to her. The cold temperature gave her time to think calmly. She unconsciously began to recall , the experience that she had deliberately forgotten deep in her mind.

Seriously speaking, her life has not been smooth sailing.When she was just born, her parents died, and her only brother was killed by a dog when she was 4 years old, and left her forever, so she grew up in an orphanage, even though she was adopted later, But it didn't have a good few days.

But those who harmed her are either dead or imprisoned. If there is anything worthy of attention in her barren life...

Xianling unconsciously thought of that strange man named Bodhidharma.

At that time, she was driven to a desperate situation by millions of dollars, and when she was forced to the roof by debt collectors again, she had nowhere to go. In a hurry, she saw a slowly driving garbage truck passing by downstairs, After a brief consideration, she chose to jump.

The moment she jumped down, she was already prepared for half life and half death, but unexpectedly, she slammed heavily into a man who was seriously injured and dying.

She didn't die, but the man's chest was sunken, and even a rib broke through the restraint of his body, and was exposed bloody under the dim streetlight.

Seeing the man lying under her body without making a sound, she quickly got up in fright, regardless of the pain in her chest from being stabbed by the rib.

She thought that she had shouldered the debt of her life, and when she was in extreme panic, she did not expect that the man who had lost his breath suddenly opened his eyes.

She watched in horror as the man calmly pressed his ribs back into his chest, and finally found her voice after a long time: "You don't need to go to the hospital?"

At that time, she actually didn't have any money, but she didn't know the situation, what should she say at this moment, in fact, she was already frightened, and even her head was still buzzing, completely lost The ability to think rationally.

Facing the terrified eyes of the fairy, the man didn't say a word, he sat up from the garbage dump as if nothing had happened, and then fixed his eyes deeply on the face of the fairy.

The man has a pair of extremely strange purple-blue eyes, when you touch them, you will be attracted by them involuntarily, your head will go blank, and boundless darkness will spread in front of you, and then you will be pulled by the endless darkness Into the abyss, completely sinking into sinking.

The beating frequency of the fairy heart began to accelerate uncontrollably.

After a long time, she finally escaped from the swamp of the abyss, panting in embarrassment and fiercely like a fish thrown ashore.

Suddenly, there was a chuckle in her ear, the laughter seemed male and not male, female and not female, very neutral, causing the fairy to raise her head unconsciously.

"I seem to see strong resentment and resentment in you." Under the dim streetlights, the man had a faint smile on his lips. Not the same person.

His face was extremely pale, not to mention not a single trace of blood, and even in the sunken chest cavity, there were still gleaming white bones, some of these bones were broken and some were broken into two halves, piled up on his chest, making him look like a Live like a succubus in a horror movie.

How can a normal person be so injured without shedding a drop of blood, and even talk and laugh with you calmly?
Xian Ling gritted her teeth tightly, not daring to say a word.

Sitting seemed a bit uncomfortable, the man adjusted his posture, he was half leaning on the garbage mountain, that elegant posture, as if what he was leaning on was not the stinking garbage, but a pile of high-grade golden velvet.

The man smiled and said to the fairy, "You can call me Bodhidharma..."

She realized that she couldn't do without talking, and she didn't want to tell the devil her name, so she couldn't wait to interrupt him, "Monk?"

The man paused, and the gentle smile on his face finally couldn't last.After a long time, the corners of his lips curled up slightly again, his eyes were half a smile but not a smile, he looked at the fairy with a half-sarcasm and kindness, "It's just as long as you are happy."

The fairy lowered her head in embarrassment, as if realizing that her behavior was very impolite.

The man half-closed his eyes and glanced lazily at the fairy, "Let's make a deal."

make a deal?In the trash?Or is it based on the premise that you don’t know whether you are a demon or a demon?She unconsciously showed a look of doubting life.

But her mouth didn't listen to the alarm in her mind at all, and she said to herself, "I'm in debt of millions, and I don't have a penny, so I can't get a bargaining chip to make a deal with you."

She didn't know how to describe her current state, she was extremely guarded against this strange man in her heart, but what she thought in her mind ran counter to what she said.

"I don't need money, I just need..." The smile on the man's lips widened, like a poisonous poppy half-opened its coquettish stamens.

Xianling held her breath involuntarily, and her heart began to sink slightly.

"You signed a contract with me."

With a trace of expected dust settled, the man's voice reached the fairy's ears, and what should come can't be avoided. Although the fairy has guessed what the man probably wanted to say, she couldn't stop it at all. he.

So she pretended to be crazy, "What contract? What can it bring me? Will it kill me? Will it violate my conscience?"

"You will like this contract." The smile on the corner of the man's lips maintained a perfect arc, as if he couldn't see the fairy's temptation.

Xian Ling pursed her lips, "Can I choose to refuse?"

"No." The man categorically rejected the fairy's request with a gentle tone.

Xianling sighed, "That's fine!" Anyway, this damn life is really a bit boring.

"You seem to be very reluctant." Unlike the devilish appearance, the man is very talkative, he said without hesitation, "Our deal will only get you out of your current predicament and get you what you want. "

"No, I'm not forcing it, I'm very happy!" Xian Ling grinned, her bright smile was extremely deceptive, and she really couldn't see the slightest bit of reluctance.

The man finally showed a sincere smile to the fairy. The smile was not as perfect as before, but it was not a smile; it did not seem to be wrapped in ridicule and contempt, it was just, pure and simple. , a very satisfied smile.

After that, Xian Ling couldn't remember clearly, her memory seemed to be erased by someone, and it seemed like nothing really happened.When she woke up again, she was lying in a pile of garbage waiting to be disposed of.

Since then, she has never seen the man named Bodhidharma again.

But then a lot of incredible things did happen to her.

For example, the adoptive mother who made her owe millions of dollars and was judged terminally ill by the mental hospital was finally imprisoned; another example, those debt collectors who forced her to jump off a building to survive began to disappear one after another...

Finally, when the adoptive parents' house miraculously became his own property, Faerie finally felt panicked.

If it is said that the adoptive mother is in prison, it is an eye opener, she deserves it; the successive disappearances of the usury are their retribution for doing all the bad things, then she suddenly got this property that should not belong to her. It was a return beyond her expectations.

The more you get, the more you pay.Fairy couldn't sleep and eat day and night, but after more than a year, nothing happened. Sometimes Fairy wondered, was it because the man named Bodhidharma died because of his injuries?

But today, after a long incubation period of one and a half years, the contract between her and the man finally surfaced.

Xian Ling looked at the unfamiliar environment in front of him, and the stone that had been suppressed in his heart for two years and could not fall for a long time finally sank down steadily.

Everything in the world has a cause and an effect, and there is no unreasonable time travel like in the novel. The reason why she suffered such a bizarre thing must be because of the man named Bodhidharma.

……

After finding the source of time travel, Xian Ling felt relieved. She no longer wondered about the contract that the man named Bodhidharma signed with her, and she no longer complained about why God always played tricks on her.She got everything that shouldn't belong to her, and she should have paid the price.

She began to try to get out of the predicament in front of her.

However, she soon found out that it was too early to reassure herself.

This vast snowy area looks very pure and beautiful at first glance, but it is extremely difficult to walk.

It is not as solid and smooth as the Antarctic glaciers seen in documentaries, nor is it as soft and flexible as the dead branches and leaves in the forest.Instead, it was like a swamp that swallowed people. When I stepped on it, half of my legs sank into it.

This made the fairy have to stop to rest after walking a few steps. After tossing for a long time, he didn't even go out of the range of [-] meters.

Soon she found something strange again, there were footprints near her!At first, she thought it was stepped on by some animal, but she quickly vetoed her idea. If it was really an animal, she would not be able to lie in the snow safely until dark.

She really couldn't imagine that in this vast snowy area where not a single blade of grass grows, if there is a piece of meat lying on it that cannot move, what carnivorous animal would not choose to eat it?

Therefore, the only explanation left is - someone rescued her from the carving mouth!
She was quite sure of this, and set out to find more clues.

Soon, she made a new discovery. She found an arrow behind a snow slope. It was a very strong and sharp arrow made of unknown material.She tried to break it with her hands, but no matter how hard she tried to break it, she couldn't break it.

She was suddenly excited. The sharp arrows not only meant the weapon in her hand, but also meant that her guess was correct, and that a human saved her!Although she didn't know why the person who rescued her left her in the snow again, but the presence of humans meant that she could get out of this ghostly place!

She began to search along the footprints left by the man.

But soon, she encountered new troubles, and she felt that she stepped on something.

How would you describe that feeling?It's slippery, like stepping on a loach, and it feels very bad anyway.

She carefully pulled out her leg from the snow, and when she saw it, her anxious heart felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on it, cooling it down.

I saw a thing that looked like a snake, not a snake, not a bug, and not a bug protruding from the snow pit.The thing was covered with fine white scales, a mouth larger than its body, jagged like a lamprey.

The shape of this thing is even more terrifying than the white feather eagle. The fairy stared straight at it, and his mind had lost contact with his body and became blank.

But just as the disgusting thing was about to rush out of the snow, her body reflexively stabbed the snake with the arrow in her hand without giving orders.

The thing twisted and made a "sizzling" sound, and the blood that flowed out of it was an extremely disgusting dark green color, which made people lose their appetite just by looking at it.Xian Ling's chest thumped, and she flung the disgusting thing far away.

Goosebumps crawled all over her body, and she couldn't help stroking the back of her hand.The so-called back fear always reveals her existence belatedly after she makes a bold move.

Suddenly Xian Ling touched her tattered sleeve, and her pure cotton coat felt hard to the touch. Looking down, the blood that had dried up looked dark brown under the moonlight. The white coat was dark brown. The brown blood stains, matched together, cannot be ignored.

He raised his hand and smelled it again, and a rusty smell unique to blood spread in his nostrils.No wonder……

She finally realized that she wasn't vigilant enough after waking up, and she even forgot this bit of common sense.

Xian Ling licked her chapped lips, hesitated for two seconds, and finally took off her coat. She was wearing short sleeves, which obviously didn't match the white snow, but there was no way, the coat was covered in blood , if she continues to wear it, sooner or later, more things will come.

She dug a hole and buried the bloody coat in it. She carefully wiped off the remaining blood on her arms and hands with snow. The footprints left by the two humans chased after them.

Her walking speed is very slow, not only because the snow is soft and hard to walk, but the main reason is that she has to guard against snakes and insects that may come out from the depths of the snow layer at any time. The speed of that thing is not fast, but it almost bit her several times Yes, it is hard to guard against.

She tightly held the arrow in her hand, not daring to slack off for a moment. As the moon gradually rose, the snowy night was no longer silent, and strange sounds could be heard from time to time in the shadows of the night.

Some are like the beating of musical instruments, some are like babies learning to talk, and sometimes there are even whispering sounds, the yin and yang are intertwined, making the scalp numb...

These sounds don't seem to be made by animals. I'm afraid this is a world of ghosts, right?Faerie thought.

……

The fairies don't know if this world is a world of ghosts, but she is very grateful that there is no more snow in this snowy night, otherwise she would never be able to catch up with those two humans. Of course, she has not caught up with them now, but She had a feeling that she was not far from them.

She saw a very suitable place for camping ahead, not to mention the leeward, and surrounded by mountains.The deep footsteps in the snow have been spreading there.

However, when the fairy happily entered the hill, seeing the scene in front of her, her already cold heart fell to the bottom of the valley in an instant.
