Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 113 Nostalgia
Therefore, Bibi Dong, who had already completed the fifth test of Rakshasa, was in no mood to care about the sixth test and hurriedly left this secret space.

In the Pope's Palace, in an unknown secret room.

A purple-black light flashed by, and Bibi Dong's figure appeared on the bed in the corner of the secret room.

After exiting the Rakshasa Secret Realm, Bibi Dong regained her previous elegant and peerless appearance. The panic-stricken expression on her face made her look not like the honorable and glorious Pope of the Spirit Hall, but an innocent noble lady from some noble family.

Without the constant influence of the negative emotions of the Rakshasa Secret Realm, Bibi Dong let go of her guard and recalled the only remaining warmth in her heart.

The innocence of first love brought a long-lost innocent smile to Bibi Dong's face, and her soft and pleasant voice was filled with deep attachment.

"Xiao Gang, I haven't seen you for so many years. Are you doing well?"

……

Tiandou City, Lanba Academy.

in the room.

Yu Xiaogang was writing something on a piece of white paper. He was originally planning the training schedule for his cheap apprentice, but for some reason the unforgettable figure kept flashing through his mind.

Unable to concentrate, Yu Xiaogang put down the pen in his hand in annoyance, and looked down. There was no training plan on the white paper, but a portrait of a young woman.

Yu Xiaogang looked at the portrait of the young woman in his hand with a melancholy expression, and couldn't help but reach out to touch the woman's face in the portrait.

Tick ​​tock!

Two lines of hot tears slid down Yu Xiaogang's face and dripped onto the portrait.

"Xiao Gang, Xiao Gang!"

Liu Erlong's shouting came from outside the door. After hearing it, Yu Xiaogang was a little panicked and crumpled the portrait in his hand into a ball and threw it into the wastebasket.

Before he could wipe the tears from his face, Liu Erlong pushed open the door and strode in.

"Xiao Gang, come here at dinner time. I didn't see you in the college cafeteria, so I knew you must have been so absorbed in work that you forgot the time again."

"I asked the canteen chef to prepare some of your favorite side dishes and brought them over. Xiaogang, eat them while they're hot."

As she spoke, Liu Erlong placed the food box in her hand on the table in front of Yu Xiaogang and opened the lid of the food box for him.

Suddenly, the aroma of food wafted into the room.

"Erlong, thank you for your hard work."

Yu Xiaogang took the chopsticks handed to him by Liu Erlong and suppressed his longing for Bibi Dong. He did not dare to look at Liu Erlong out of guilt, but instead lowered his head with evasive eyes and looked at the food in the food box.

Although Liu Erlong's mind was not very delicate, her woman's intuition still made her realize that something was wrong.

Yu Xiaogang's evasive eyes, the tear marks on his face, and his sudden polite thanks to her, all told Liu Erlong that Yu Xiaogang was hiding something from her.

A woman's sixth sense made Liu Erlong immediately lock her eyes on the wastebasket at Yu Xiaogang's feet.

"It's not hard. I'm willing to do this for you. Okay, Xiaogang, eat quickly. It's cold in winter. Don't wait until the food gets cold or it won't taste good."

On the surface, Liu Erlong pushed Yu Xiaogang to eat faster, but secretly, she used her soul power to absorb the latest piece of waste paper in the wastebasket into her palm.

After doing all this, Liu Erlong waited patiently for Yu Xiaogang to finish eating, and left the room with the empty food box.

bang~
The door was closed.

Outside the room, Liu Erlong leaned against the door and unfolded the crumpled waste paper hidden in her palm.

When she saw the portrait of the young woman on the waste paper, her anger and jealousy instantly erupted, flames emerged from her palms, burning the portrait to ashes.

Afterwards, bitterness replaced the anger in her heart. Liu Erlong turned around and looked at Yu Xiaogang through the door, thinking:

"Bibi Dong, it's Bibi Dong again, Xiao Gang, how can I be inferior to her?"

"Why? You call out her name in your dreams, and she's the one you think about when you're working."

"Sister, is it because I'm your sister? Do you really care so much about worldly opinions?"

Liu Erlong tried several times to push open the door and rush in to question Yu Xiaogang, but every time her hand touched the doorknob, she shrank back in fear.

She was afraid that after questioning, Yu Xiaogang would leave her again.

In the end, Liu Erlong covered her face with tears and left.

In the dark night, on a big tree covered with snow.

Shi Nian was hiding on a tree branch, taking in the entire scene. He felt disgusted with Yu Xiaogang's behavior in his heart.

As a ruthless and vindictive person, Shi Nian has always looked down on those who are cowardly and incompetent and have no sense of responsibility. "I have worked so hard for so long, and you are still sitting here and not looking for your first love to ask about the truth of what happened back then."

"I have never seen such a cowardly and incompetent hypocrite."

"No, I have to increase the intensity of the nightmare. I haven't been able to complete the task for so long. It would be bad if that adult thinks that I am not doing my job well."

In winter, it gets dark early and people go to bed early.

It was dark at this moment. After Yu Xiaogang finished his dinner, he rested for a while and then lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

Shi Nian appeared silently in front of the bed, looked at Yu Xiaogang who was sleeping in front of him, his seventh soul ring lit up, and his martial soul's true form nightmare was activated.

……

The next day, dawn.

Shi Nian had just returned to his secluded place when he received the news that Lin Rong summoned him.

Lin’s Manor, main house hall.

The burning floor dragon dispelled the biting cold outside, making the hall as warm as spring.

Lin Rong, who had just returned home less than a day ago, sat on the sofa, warmed himself by the stove, drank hot tea and waited for the arrival of the new year.

At three quarters past three in the morning, Shi Nian arrived here.

"Sir, Nightmare's plan to lure Yu Xiaogang has been proceeding in an orderly manner. You asked me to come here. Do you have any other instructions?"

As soon as Shi Nian came in, he explained that he had been working on the task, in case Lin Rong asked about the progress of the task and he didn't know how to answer.

"Tang San knows, right?"

Lin Rong was drinking tea, and a piece of white paper covered with handwriting floated in front of Shi Nian.

"I know, the leader of the Tang Sect."

Shi Nian answered, and at the same time took the white paper that floated in front of him and checked what was written on it.

"Oh, I see." Shi Nian browsed through it, and the content written on the white paper opened his eyes.

"It turns out that Tang San actually came from another world, a killer organization called Tangmen."

"He stole the sect's treasure, jumped off a cliff, and came to our world. No wonder he could come up with those magical hidden weapons."

"But how did the adults know about this kind of thing?"

As soon as Shi Nian finished reading what was written on the white paper, the paper in his hand turned into a wisp of smoke and dissipated into the air.

"Curiosity kills the cat. The more you know, the faster you die."

Lin Rong didn't speak, but his voice echoed in the hall.

"For some things, you just need to do them and don't ask any more questions!"

A mental pressure that made Shi Nian feel suffocated suddenly appeared, but disappeared in an instant, as if it had never happened.

But the extinguished fire in the hall told Shi Nian that the fleeting pressure just now was not his illusion.

Suppressing the panic in his heart, Shi Nian answered respectfully:
"Yes, sir, I understand."

Seeing this, Lin Rong put down the teacup in his hand and said:
"This is your reward for this mission. I'm giving it to you in advance. If you fail, I can only take it back by force."

As he spoke, a stream of green light flew out from Lin Rong's wrist and hovered in front of Shi Nian.

"Ten thousand year soul bone!"

After Shi Nian saw clearly what was in the green light, he couldn't help but exclaim.

But while feeling happy, he immediately thought of what Lin Rong had just said.

If the mission fails, the soul bones must be retrieved. If he wants to retrieve the soul bones that have been absorbed by him, he must be dead.

Thinking of this, Shi Nian was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat, and suddenly felt that the soul bone in front of him was not so attractive.

But Shi Nian finally accepted the soul bone. Regardless of whether he had the qualifications to refuse, after careful consideration, he also felt that the task was not difficult.

"Yes, sir, I promise to complete the task!"
